Palermo in Italy hosted on the last 10 and 11 July 2025 the second meeting of the Erasmus+ Sport Project called “MazaPié” or just “MP”.
The project it’s coordinated by ADCS Carvalhais form Portugal, and the partners are IRSEI from Italy and the Asociación Española de Mazapié from Spain.
“Mazapié” is a new game that want to tackle the rising of physical inactivity and pollution resulting from plastics use and promote gender equality. It’s an alternative sport that, given the internal logic of the game, is described as: invasion (or shared court), dual, collective, with implement, sustainable, democratic, collaborative-cooperative and opposition. Furthermore, under the idiosyncrasy of alternative sports, it is a sport: inclusive, egalitarian, co-educational (mixed), participatory and educational.
The project’s general objective is to Promote Physical Activity, Inclusivity and environmental consciousness through the development of “Mazapié”.
Currently there are planed training and competition activities that will be developed on the next European Week of Sport.
