This past month, the Volleyball Federation of North Macedonia ran activities in conjunction with the CEV School Project ‘Play Volleyball – Grow with it’ in Bitola and Skopje.
In Bitola, more than 30 children participated in a volleyball class organised as an extracurricular activity together with the local physical education teacher and the coaches from the VC Pelister Volley. Volleyball is currently on the rise in Bitola in terms of number of children interested in playing the game, which is growing year by year.
The project continues in a few elementary schools, and there are plans to expand it even to additional ones. In Skopje, at the primary school named after Jan Amos Komenski, the Fit Fan Volley volleyball club delivered a class attended by 20 children aged seven to nine. Fit Fan Volley is one of the latest clubs to join the CEV School Project and for now, they are doing it very successfully in terms of activities, number of children, and cooperation with local schools.
As for December, there are plans to hold activities and competitions to coincide with the end of the first quarter of the current school year.
