Q & A

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

In sports, I grew up thanks to Sportabili. At the association, they immediately made me feel at ease and I felt safe finding help and encouragement in my difficulties. When I started attending Sportabili, my mother encouraged me to be independent in my travels: since I live in Campestrin di Fassa, I would get on the bus by myself and head to Predazzo, where the association is located. The first few times, my mom would follow the bus in the car to make sure I got to my destination without any problems.In this way, she taught me to be confident and independent. Practicing sports, on the other hand, has taught me to have patience and perseverance. Another thing I learned from playing sports is to let myself be helped and to help others if they need it. I really love snowboard but I also practice Swimming and Tennis, with excellent results. Sport is very important for me because it allows me to meet new people.
