A Tournament of Friendship in Slatina

SLATINA - Harmony and fun were the main features of the fifth edition of the 'Turneul Prieteniei’ – Tournament of Friendship – event, which for some years now has marked the end of the season for Inter Campus Romania.

Taking place in Slatina, located on the left bank of the River Olt, Inter Campus have worked alongside Comunità Nuova and Pirelli to produce a project that aims to promote integration between children from varied social backgrounds. This includes children in social care, Romani children and those from the local community.

For two days, around 250 children aged between eight and 13, were in action out on the football pitch. Inter Campus took part with all of the teams from Slatina and a group from the Ramnicu Valcea centre, while also competing alongside other teams from the local areas.

Respect, collaboration, passion, enthusiasm and friendship were all the real winners.

Pirelli’s new Financial Director, Alper Gobuluk was present at the event, honouring each of the teams involved at the end of the day's activities..

As they say in these parts, ‘Felicitari’ – congratulations – to all of the kids, coaches and organisers and ‘la revedere’ – until next time – Saltina. The next event will take place in October, marking the start of our new footballing season.
