On May 27, as part of the “Shelter – Friendly Lviv” project, future football stars from Kherson and Kharkiv trained at the stadium of school #68.

Children from the frontline regions, together with their peers from Lviv, conducted an active warm-up, performed developmental exercises for better coordination, learned the technical techniques of handling/stopping the ball with the inside of the foot and passing the ball. Acquired skills were improved in the process of a two-sided game.

Football training takes place within the project “Shelter – Friendly Lviv”, which is implemented by the NGO “All-Ukrainian Democratic Forum”, with the support of Stiftung Schüler Helfen Leben. As part of the project, we also conduct chess lessons, master classes and open-air cinema viewing for children from internally displaced families.
