Sports have always been a great way to bring people together and promote healthy living. However, in recent years, there has been a decline in sports participation, especially among children and young adults. This is where Rackets Up comes in. Launched in 2018 with the aim of encouraging children and youth to increase participation in sports through table tennis, the project has trained 287 teachers to be certified as table tennis coaches. So far, the project has reached to 115,000 students from four different provinces in Turkey, with Şanlıurfa being the most recent stop. In partnership with the Turkish Table Tennis Federation, Rackets Up is sure to continue its mission of encouraging children and youth to lead active and healthy lifestyles.
