OFFS activities in Armenia

March 27, 2010 was a nice day for children of Ararat region. Our OFFS instructor Liana Grigoryan organized street events for schoolchildren of Verin Dvin village where people of different nationalities are living and working together. The sport event in Verin Dvin turned into a wonderful event full of children’s laughter and smiles.

Various types of exercises have been used during the activities: coordination games, relay-race, and football exercises. Over 30 children played and enjoyed together: Armenians, Assyrians, Russians, Ezids. The involvement of children of different nationalities into the OFFS activities proves once and again how sport can be used as tool in building peace and civil society in humanitarian action.

With the child in the centre, it is our vision to bring all stakeholders into play. When we organize activities for children, we wish all the stakeholders to have a place and exercise a function: When we activate the children the stakeholders circle like planets around the sun in a Children's Grassroots Football Universe.
