Participants know a different sport: sitting volleyball.
The first year of the festival of children's category Mini 2 × 2 Central Nucleus, held on May 30, had different sports than they are accustomed to practicing in the project Initiation Centers to Volleyball in Paraná. During the meeting whose theme was the Pan-American Games in 2015, students played badminton and volleyball sitting - with the special participation of paratleta the Brazilian National Sitting Volleyball, Carlos Jacob Glemboski. The pioneering team of this sport in Paraná, Unilehu, was also present at the event, in addition to the Supervôlei students, alumni core, parents and family.
The aim of the festival was to introduce students to some sports that are not so well known and motivate them to also practice different sports. Teachers were a little further and, at the beginning of the meeting, explained briefly the participants about the torch and the ritual of the Olympic cauldron at the opening ceremony of the Pan American Games that this year will be held in Canada.

Then Carlos Jacob Glemboski, talked to the participants. The chat was very productive: the volleyball paratleta sitting told about his life and career in the sport. Carlos also came into court with the kids, parents and family and spent the afternoon having fun with them. Certainly, it was an enriching experience, especially for those who had the opportunity to practice the sport with the player of the Brazilian team.
Besides badminton and volleyball sitting, two very interesting workshops were offered: one for making medals (with cups of brigadier and decorative ribbons), returned to families after the event; and one for production of table tennis rackets with cardboard.
