STRIVE Tournament Successfully Completed at the Peace and Friendship Stadium

The tournament organised within the framework of the European project STRIVE – Schools & Teqvolley for Respect, Inclusion, Vitality & Equality was successfully completed on 21 October 2026 at the Peace and Friendship Stadium (SEF), with the participation of students .

A total of 20 children took part in the activity, having the opportunity to experience Teqvoly in practice, participate in sporting and team-based activities, and engage with the values promoted through the STRIVE project.

Through play, teamwork and active participation, the students strengthened important skills and values such as cooperation, team spirit, mutual respect and fair play, demonstrating how sport can serve as an effective tool for inclusion, communication and positive social interaction among young people.

The STRIVE project uses sport, and Teqvoly in particular, as a means to promote equality, inclusion and equal opportunities for participation, with particular attention to girls, young people with disabilities and children from socially or economically vulnerable backgrounds. At the same time, the project encourages an active and healthy lifestyle while supporting participants in developing confidence, cooperation and social skills.

The tournament at the Peace and Friendship Stadium marked a positive conclusion to the project’s sporting activities in Greece, creating an environment where participation, collaboration and shared experience were more important than the final result.

As a partner in the STRIVE project, Olympiacos S.F.P. continues to support initiatives that use the power of sport to promote education, inclusion and European values among younger generations.
