For example, the Centers for Sports Formation which provides training in fundamental sport's skills and encourages the use of sports as a tool for reinforcing values. The Centers are sports education units located at communities.
Some of the disciplines taught in these programs are: Open Court, which involves youngsters from the country's public housing projects, teaching and practicing basketball, soccer and volleyball; the "Plaza Ejercicio" project offers different alternatives for physical activity geared mainly toward the adult and senior population; Playing for Your Health develops sports activities focused on the problem of obesity in our children and youngsters; and Adapted Academies which service people with special conditions.
