Main life skills: Communication, Self-esteem
About the program: A true expression of the One Team spirit is being delivered in Montenegro, where rival clubs Buducnost VOLI Podgorica and Mornar Bar have created the first-ever One Team program co-organized by two teams from the 7DAYS EuroCup.
The two clubs are working together alongside Special Olympics Montenegro to give youngsters with intellectual disabilities access to online classes led by One Team coaches from both clubs. The classes are supported by Special Olympics volunteers, who are helping to organize and implement the sessions in an online format during the current pandemic.
Around 50 boys and girls, aged 10 to 25, are taking part in this eight-week program. The sessions are using the power of basketball to help the youngsters to feel accepted in society, with the help of sponsor companies VOLI and Baskethand.
