850 students enter health contract with Bibi and A-core players

Scoring for Health

Last week, Bibi paid an unexpected visit to all 42 classes from 19 schools in and around Bruges that are enrolled in the Foundation project Scoring for Health, accounting for 850 pupils. In this project the pupils enter into a contract with the players and players of our A-core to start living healthier: more exercise and healthier food. The Club Brugge Foundation offers a ready-made teaching package for the participating schools.

Signing a contract with Club Brugge players

As part of this project, Bibi visited all classes to personally hand over the contract, signed by Vanaken and Jutgla, among others, to the students. They each signed a contract with the players confirming their motivation to exercise more and eat healthier. How will they do this? Through the Club Brugge Foundation curriculum, they will learn all about healthy living in 12 lessons, both theoretical and practical.

"Our students are really looking forward to getting started with it. This is a great asset for us as teachers to make our students health conscious. We are fully looking forward to committing a full year to this wonderful project."

- Teacher Kristoff

So this school year's Scoring for Health project was officially kicked off with a visit from Bibi and the signing of the contracts. As icing on the cake, the students received a personal message from Maxim De Cuyper and Club YLA player Davinia Vanmechelen to motivate them and wish them success, but above all to let the students know that they will be allowed to come to the Jan Breydel Stadium as part of these lessons!

Meter of the project: Davinia Vanmechelen

In between the busy training schedule, Davinia Vanmechelen made time to join us on a school visit to some classes. There she introduced herself as the meter of Scoring For Health. As meter, she will help students adopt a healthier lifestyle for (at least) a school year.

"It's great fun to see how those students get absorbed in the Scoring for Health project. I feel honored to be a meter and will make as much time as I can to help encourage the students.

- Davinia Vanmechelen

Kick-Off

The lessons start and we immediately begin with a fun practical lesson: the kick-off in the Jan Breydel Stadium where students will take sports tests, get a workshop on healthy food and of course can fully indulge in the fundorp with bouncy castles and much more.
