Key facts

The initiative in Gazzada Schianno

Sunday, October 25, 2026, from 14:30 to 19:30, Smash Bellavista in Gazzada Schianno will host «A Kick to Cocaine – Sport, well-being and solidarity», a charitable initiative against addictions promoted by AGIFAR Varese. The specified venue is Bellavista Società Polisportiva Dil. Srl, in Località Campagnola.

Movement, prevention and social inclusion characterize the event. AGIFAR Varese (Association of Young Pharmacists of the province of Varese) organizes it with Dr Nathalie Biasolo, who practices medicine and works as a sports physiologist.

The «A Kick to Cocaine» project is the core of the proposal and aims to combat and prevent addictions through football fitness, a group discipline inspired by football, and team sports. From this perspective, team sports are presented as an opportunity to create positive connections, support inclusion and promote the psychological and physical well-being of young people.

The initiative is open to citizens, families and sports enthusiasts. Anyone who simply wants to learn about the project and take part in the social gathering may also participate. You do not need to be an athlete: the individual sporting activities are optional.

The afternoon is therefore designed with a format not reserved for those who already practice sports. Participation combines a presentation, different activities and a final sharing moment, allowing those present to choose whether to join the scheduled sports sessions.

The schedule combines football fitness, five-a-side football and yoga with the presentation of the project and the shared aperitif dinner. Participation does not require being an athlete, because each sporting activity is optional. The social gathering is scheduled for the final part of the afternoon.

Operational details

The project and the local network

The «A Kick to Cocaine» project was developed with the support of lecturers and researchers from Syddansk Universitet, the University of Southern Denmark. The presentation scheduled in the program also covers the international pathway linked to the initiative and will take place in the panoramic room.

Team sports and prevention

Football fitness is described as a group activity inspired by football. This practice is complemented by team sports, offered to young people as an opportunity to build positive relationships, support inclusion and promote physical and mental well-being. The project aims to combat and prevent addictions through these activities, bringing the subject of prevention into a collective movement experience.

The connection with public health is also indicated by the mission of AGIFAR Varese, which promotes educational and social initiatives in addition to bringing together young pharmacists in the area.

The role of AGIFAR Varese

Founded in 2023, AGIFAR Varese brings together young pharmacists in the area and promotes educational and social initiatives to protect public health. For the event in Gazzada Schianno, the association is collaborating with Dr. Nathalie Biasolo, a physician and sports physiologist, who will lead the football fitness session.

The initiative is held under the patronage of the Order of Pharmacists of the Province of Varese and Federfarma Varese. Otofarma, Ikigai Beauty and SV Integratori are also listed as sponsors. The support and patronage accompany a project that brings together the work of young pharmacists, sports practice and the pathway developed with the Danish university.

The day does not end with the sporting activity: the program also includes a presentation of the project and a social gathering, elements listed alongside the movement sessions.
