Our names are Stellios Diakatos (Special Olympics athlete) and Nikos Mpafaloukos (secondary school student) and we are from Greece. We are teammates in a Special Olympics Unified football Team since 2019, we train and compete together and we have created a strong friendship through sports.

  • Through our favorite sport we have learned how to respect each other, support and promote inclusion. Today, we raise our white card to show that in sports all people are equal and that through our differences we can teach others to be strong and acceptant.
