On 22nd of November, during National Men’s Health Week, the Romanian Football Federation (FRF) brought sport and health together in the best possible way! ⚽💙

FRF hosted a friendly football tournament where teams from FRF, National Sport Agency (ANS), and Johnson & Johnson played two matches each, celebrating teamwork, wellbeing, and the power of movement.
But the day didn’t stop there! 🙌

To promote the MoveUp project, participants also took part in a Walking Football demonstration, showing that staying active is for everyone — regardless of age, fitness level, or experience.

The goal?
👉 To raise awareness about men’s health
👉 To encourage physical activity at every stage of life
👉 To highlight how football can bring people together and support healthier communities

A big thank you to all the teams and partners who joined us in pushing health forward - ⚽

Building confidence through exercise!

Confidence grows with every rep, pass, and step. 🌱

Set realistic goals and celebrate non-scale wins: steadier breath, better posture, more energy. Try new skills—catchball rallies, balance drills, resistance bands, or low-impact intervals from walking basketball. Keep a progress journal and train with supportive teammates. 💪📓

MoveUp project's objectives include promoting voluntary activities in sport, social inclusion, equal opportunities, and awareness of health-enhancing physical activity through increased participation and equal access to sport for all. ✨

💙 November 23 marked the third anniversary of the European Parliament's landmark on .

🔎 Adopted 100 years after the discovery of , the Resolution is a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come in diabetes prevention, management and care — and of the work that still lies ahead to improve health outcomes and quality of life for people living with diabetes (PwD) and those at risk.

🙏 With the support of our community of PwD and healthcare professionals, dedicated MEPs and the MEPs Mobilising for Diabetes (MMD) group, we continue advocating for stronger EU policies that reflect the needs of PwD. Most recently, we have been working to ensure that diabetes is fully integrated into the European Commission’s upcoming Cardiovascular Health ( ) Plan, so that it truly reflects the interconnectedness of cardiovascular diseases ( ), and other ( ).

🙌 As we mark this anniversary, we reaffirm the Resolution’s importance as a key advocacy tool for driving more ambitious policy action on diabetes. Its key articles outline essential action areas to advance better diabetes prevention, early detection, management and care. Check them out here! ⬇️

That's why, with MoveUp project, we promove the importance of prevention and of promotion of physical activity against cronical diseases!

The Benefits of Modified sports for Seniors with CHC
Staying active is one of the best ways to support overall health – but for seniors living with chronic health conditions (CHC), traditional sports can sometimes feel out of reach, that’s where modified sports like walking football, walking basketball, and catchball come in.

❤️ 1. Supporting Heart Health
Gentle, consistent movement helps improve blood circulation and strengthen the heart – without putting to much strain on the body. These low-impact sports promote cardiovascular endurance in a safe and enjoyable way, helping participants manage conditions like hypertension or diabetes.

🦵 2. Improving Mobility and Balance
Modified sports are designed with slower paces and adapted rules, making them ideal for maintaining flexibility, balance, and muscle tone. Regular participation reduces the risk of falls and helps seniors stay independent in their daily lives.

🤝 3. Strengthening Social Connections
MoveUp sessions aren’t only about the game — they’re about community. Participants form friendships, share experiences, and support one another. This social connection plays a crucial role in reducing loneliness and improving quality of life.

All in all, modified sports like those promoted by the MoveUp Project create an inclusive space for seniors with CHC to move safely, smile often, and stay connected.

🌍 On this , MOVEUP highlights how movement can help prevent stroke and support long-term and health.

⚠️ A stroke happens when blood flow to the brain is blocked or restricted or there is a bleed in the brain, causing damage to brain tissue. People living with or are at higher risk: high blood glucose can damage blood vessels and make blood more likely to clot, while high blood pressure puts extra strain on arteries and can contribute to blood vessel changes which can lead to clots and blockages. Together, these factors increase the likelihood of stroke and other cardiovascular complications.

MOVEUP encourages regular physical activity for people living with chronic conditions such as and , providing a space to move together, share experiences and build supportive communities through tailored sports such as walking football, walking basketball and catchball. Physical activity helps manage blood pressure, regulate blood glucose, improve circulation and strengthen heart health, all key in lowering the risk of stroke.

Through movement, health guidance and community connection, the program fosters resilience, confidence and long-term wellbeing.
