Q & A

What have you learned playing sports that you use in work/school/life?

I’ve been doing sport, every Sunday, for several years with Special Olympics. I’m delighted to take part in Special Olympics activities because I’ve made several friends like Moussa, Tidiane and Gérard and especially Auntie Fatou and my dance coach Bag Bag. I used to get tired very quickly. But with sport, my physical condition, my health improved, and I blossomed. I couldn’t express myself and interact with others, but by playing sport with my friends, I’m able to express myself better. I’ve become more independent, more joyful and I’ve learned to take responsibility, to have self-esteem and to trust others. I love doing sport because it allows me to be joyful in everything I do.
