During the meeting, the young participants had the opportunity to analyze in detail the activities they performed in 2018 - a 10-week physical activity program aimed at the young ambassadors. The youngster also visited the Belmeken High-Speed Sports Complex, looking at the sports facilities and getting to know the activities of the complex. Delegates were also selected for the final project meeting to be held in autumn in Italy and aimed at discussing the possibilities of implementing the Youth Sport Development Ambassadors in the education systems of the countries participating in the project. During the previous project activities, young people had the opportunity to visit partner countries and exchange experience with local ambassadors, which was extremely valuable in the realization of activities.

The Youth Sport Development Ambassadors project, which will be implemented within 2 years, will focus on volunteering in the sphere of sport that promotes the social inclusion of young people between 16 and 24 years of age. The projects will be implemented by 4 young people in each country who will be young sports development ambassadors and will implement activities aimed at young people of their age who will acquire a higher degree of socialization in our society. Each of the four ambassadors in Bulgaria made sporting events for their peers in the period January - April 2018. The events in Plovdiv were organized by Galin Genov and Alexander Iliev, in Yakoruda by Musalina Dzhalil and in Sofia by Nikola Zdravkov. Partners in the Youth Sport Development Ambassadors project are Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Hungary, Wales, Italy and Bulgaria and its implementation is co-funded by the Erasmus + program.
