The crowd gathered once again at the Sports Hall of the Jean-Louis Vanterpool stadium last Saturday during the Sports Open Day organized by the Community Sports Department.
The 5th edition of this event, which has become a must-see, stood out for the large participation of children in the sports demonstrations: "This day is a great success, we have many more participants and people came out in large numbers.

The stands were always full, including those of the Territorial Olympic and Sports Committee (CTOS SBSM) and the Center of Excellence and Education through Sport (CEES).

If regular activity is important for physical and mental health, the Sports Open Day also highlighted the population's interest in building social ties. _Vx
