BOCCIA – Enhancing the quality of life of people with disabilities and their environment through Paralympic sport

July 10-15 the meeting under the project "BOCCIA – Enhancing the quality of life of people with disabilities and their environment through Paralympic sport" was organized in Kyustendil, Bulgaria with the participation of all project partner organizations. The project coordinator is Polish Organization "START" and it is co-funded by Erasmus + Programme of the European Union.

The meeting included the detailed explanations about the program and partner organizations presentations, also Boccia development perspectives in each participant country. The country representatives had chance to play Boccia.

The development of this kind of sport is very important for Geogria, because there is no other type of sport that will include the persons with severe disabilities.

Boccia instructors will visit Georgia next spring and the project will end with the international competition in Poland.
