Agenda UV

The Divina Pastora Chair for Adapted Sports of the Universitat de València organises the third edition of its Inclusive Paddle Tournament in the mixed modality of chair-up today Friday, 18 September in the facilities of the Blasco Ibáñez Campus. With the tournament’s third anniversary, both the Divina Pastora Chair for Adapted Sports of the Universitat de València and its collaborators (Service of Physical and Sports Education and the Federation of Adapted Sports in the Valencian Community) aim at promoting and making clear that it is possible to compete in activities which involve both sports people with and without disablements. The tourney will last all afternoon, from 16:30, in a league format with 6 partners which compete with each other. The partners will be made of up and in chair players. One of the objectives which promoted the Chairs formation is that of motivating social inclusion and personal development through sports and education. In this sense, this Friday’s action unites to the rest of the project celebrated last year with a great participation such as that of the day ‘Sports for everyone. Don’t let anything stop you”, and the First Interuniversity Championship of Goalball in the Valencian Community or the workshop for applied electrostimulation for training in which it participated with the Service of Physical and Sports Education of the Universitat. Overall, projects which favour integration through sports, provide tools and bring to light the importance of sports values and equality of opportunities.
