“Lo sport è…” is the contest conceived by the board of the Bardolino Champion’s Cup in 2017 to involve children aged 10 and 11 from schools within the municipality.
The contest is therefore aimed at students of the same age as the young athletes participating in the tournament, specifically targeting 4th and 5th grade children from the ‘Falcone Borsellino’ Comprehensive Institute in Bardolino and Calmasino.
Students, with the collaboration of their teachers, are invited to prepare works, which are usually large drawings, where they can freely express what sport means to them—competition, comparison, loyalty, and fairness. Every year, each class manages to express the great values of sport with simplicity, imagination, and originality!
During the tournament days, the works are exhibited and awarded.
Since 2016, a collaboration has been established with the Germano Chincherini Onlus Foundation, which, through the Groups Parc Hotels Italia, donates part of its contribution to the winning class of the contest. This class, in turn, donates the amount to families and/or associations in Bardolino.
For 2025, the award ceremony will be held on Saturday, May 10, in Preonda Square at 8:00 p.m. During the same evening, the local section of the Lions Club Benacus Garda will award a scholarship for an internship in Ireland to one or two deserving students from the local Scuola Alberghiera Istituto I.P.S.A.R Luigi Carnacina.
The evening will be enlivened by the brass band GipfBlech from Lana-Merano.
