Reimagining the Future
The Entain Foundation is supporting Sport Without Borders and Second Chance in the "Rigiocare il futuro" project, which involves the construction of a sports center of excellence inside the Secondigliano prison, with the aim of promotingsocial inclusion and offering new perspectives to inmates.
Thanks to the contribution of the Entain Foundation, new state-of-the-art playing fields will be built and specific training courses will be activated that will guarantee inmates new opportunities for reintegration into the workforce.
The fields
The existing soccer field will be rebuilt using a state-of-the-art synthetic surface and providing technical equipment for training and practice sessions
By redeveloping an unused area, two padel courts will be built from scratch, facilities that can also be used for other sports in the future.
This is what they will look like!
Training
After the completion of the new sports facilities, a project lasting at least 24 months will be launched that, thanks to the presence of certified and properly trained trainers, technicians and sports instructors from the Sport Without Borders (SSF) network, will offer the prison population opportunities for redemption and reintegration into the workforce.
Why "Rigging the Future?"
The Entain Foundation believes in the power of Sports as a tool for social redemption.The initiative aims to create within the Secondigliano prison institute the largest Sports citadel, a sports hub of excellence that offers inmates new opportunities for growth and reintegration into the workforce. The project, born from the strength of partnership, is developed along two lines: to be a concrete example of investment in social infrastructure in a public place (entirely supported by private resources) and to focus on the
strength of the partnership (between public, private and third sector) for the development of the services that those infrastructures will allow to deliver.
The goal of "Rigiocare il Futuro" is a challenge: to demonstrate that sustainability is real through a concrete project implemented inside a prison.
