On October 6, the "Open Football Lessons" project visited Theofipol, which is in Khmelnytskyi Oblast. The event was organized by the Ukrainian Football Association with support from UEFA's Children's Fund and the Association of Cross-Cultural Projects (Denmark).

"Open Football Lessons" are accessible to everyone (not just those who actively participate in football sections) and aim not at achieving a sports result at any cost, but at enjoying physical activities and having fun with the ball, regardless of skill level.

— Head of Youth and Sports Department at Khmelnytskyi Oblast State Administration — Natalia Pavlivna Tomusyak;

— Deputy Chairman of the Khmelnytskyi Oblast Football Association — Mykola Semenovich Kuznetsov;

— Head of the public organization "Theofipolshchyna Football Federation" — Vasyl Hryhorovych Storozhuk.

After the ceremonial opening and a group photo with participants, as is customary in sports, they began with warm-up exercises. Then, after dividing the children into twelve groups, various interesting physical activities commenced. The start has been given; tomorrow there will be more.
