The City des Marguerites buzzed on Wednesday, October 14, 2026, with the rhythm of football, bringing together neighborhood youth for three hours of sports activities in a friendly atmosphere.

From 2 PM to 5 PM, participants engaged in football matches, embodying fair play, respect, and cooperation. Beyond the sport itself, the afternoon served as a genuine time for meeting and exchange, strengthening ties between young people and local stakeholders.
This initiative highlights the role of sport in animating the neighborhood and creating accessible moments of sharing for everyone. It contributes to promoting essential values such as respect, team spirit, solidarity, and living together.
The success of this afternoon also relies on the mobilization of the present actors. Grand Bourg Habitat warmly thanks the Terre de Couleurs leisure center, the educators from La Sauvegarde, and the Amédée Mercier Social Center for their presence and involvement. Special thanks are also extended to the collaborators of Grand Bourg Habitat for their commitment and participation in this collective dynamic.
These initiatives demonstrate the importance of partnership work and proximity actions in supporting youth, strengthening social ties, and contributing to neighborhood life.
