We applied for this project to help difficult and troubled students to be motivated, especially those who have social, economic and family problems. Many of the students included in this projects were students that wanted to drop out of school. Some had food disorders (obese or anorexic). Many students also were students that had emigrated from foreign countries and needed to be accepted and feel part of a team. This meant that we had to put into action inclusion strategies that would help students integrate with new settings. The project was aimed to for fill the need to reduce the gender gap; many girl and boy students needed to be encouraged to be free to choose what ever sport they wanted to practice regardless of their sex. Also, the need to teach students that we are all equal in every field of life. We also included eco-sports to increase awareness of environmental issues. The topic on health, leadership was introduced because there was a need for students to understand that health and leadership are important for a happy life and successful life. We also applied for this project because some of our teachers needed to gain experience with Erasmus+ , especially physical education, biology and mathematics teachers.
