PPI - Cyprus continues to hold its Twinnings for teams at the historic Ledra Palace.
This past Saturday PPI-CY held not one but TWO twinnings at Ledra Palace. The day started off with the girls teams from Lapithos/Lapta and Kiti coming together for the third time this year. It was great to see the girls come together again, this time recognizing the faces of the girls they were going to play with. Bringing the same teams together several times a year is essential for the kids to start to form real relationships with each other. The girls will meet once more at the End of the Year Tournament on May 5 with all the kids from PPI-CY.
PPI - CY has reached new heights with its Twinnings, which are occurring on a more frequent basis this year.
After the girls in the morning were done playing and had eaten their fill of pizza they headed back to their villages. As they were leaving, the PPI-CY teams from Iskele/Trikomo and Larnaca were coming together to play each other for the second time. The hot sun was shining down on the kids, but their spirits and energy was high. For two more hours the kids ran around playing full court basketball on mixed teams. All over the court you could see Greek-Cypriots and Turkish-Cypriots holding hands, giving high fives and laughing together.
But the pictures tell the whole story. To see all of the pictures from both twinnings, make sure to visit the PPI-CY Facebook group.
