The day
Throughout the day, youths have performed 8 sport games with a didactic background. Each activity has been accompanied by a thought about healthy habits. Some of the issues addressed were among others, the importance of drinking water and becoming aware of the hydration, learning to identify nutrients that are part of the food pyramid, acknowledge the benefits of healthy eating and to become aware of what means a healthy life. During breakfast break, teens could enjoy a bowl of fruit to recover their strength and continue with the second part of the activities. After completing the 8 games they had lunch at the Auditorium 1899 and were able to attend a speech by former Barça basketball player, Rodrigo de la Fuente. To finish the day, children have visited the Espai Fundació and the FC Barcelona Museum.

All parts involved have valued very positively the activities. Not only for the success of participation but also for the motivation of youths in each day goals.
