Asked about the motivation behind such an event, Katharina shared that “bringing diversity to our sporting programs and events in the community was one of such motivations.”
Katharina also mentioned “I wanted to create an event for the kids that would rival what the football boys have, where they play matches almost every week. We needed a competition, not just for Fit4Fun but for the entire Fafali projects.”

The Fit4Fun Games comprised a variety of track and field events that showcased the participants’ versatility and skill. Children competed in a range of disciplines, including sprinting, long jump, and relay races in a group format. The atmosphere reverberated with cheers and applause as these young athletes demonstrated their determination, agility, and their undying spirit.

About how the event went, Katharina said: “The kids comported themselves on the day to ensure a smooth running of affairs and a big thank you to the team at Fafali for doing their parts of the task by taking the kids through the necessary disciplines where we were able to announce a winner.”
