Last year, 20 years have passed since Corporation “Razvitie” supported child sportists. In the distant year of 1996 - April, we sent to Italy the “Academic” football team that took part in a tournament run in Reggio Emilia municipality.
Children, coaches and parents were very pleased. At that time, no private structure had done so.
Young footballers managed to win a big cup, which is still to be seen at the showcase of “Razvitie”, and is reminiscent of the long years in which we support the children's sport.
Years - brought cups, medals and unforgettable, good memories.
