Soccer tournament

Saturday 4th September 2010

HANDISUP develops its actions that heighten our awareness towards one of the major issues faced by people with disabilities : accessibility. During the 3rd soccer tournament organized by the Firefighters working in Rouen on Saturday 4th September 2010, HANDISUP was offering three types of play activities : blindfolded track and field contests, paralympic football and obstacle courses on weelchairs. All contestants – working for the national Police, the local Police, the Maison d'Arrêt (County Jail) in Rouen, TCAR (the local public transport company), Banque Populaire, etc – did their best in all of these activities. The Gambetta Firefighters B team was awarded a prize for being the fastest team to achieve these courses. It really was a convivial and relaxing day for HANDISUP volunteers who got an opportunity to gather again after the summer break.
