Beyond the Try: Rugby as a Driver of Inclusion and Sharing

Rugby is the ultimate sport of support: no one advances alone, and the strength of the group lies in every single difference. In this talk, Rugby Parma F.C. 1931 explores Diversity & Inclusion through an inspiring local initiative: the deep bond between Serie A champions and the young players of the “Gamberi” team.

Far from clichés, it is a daily synergy made of athletes taking the pitch and youngsters bringing an overwhelming energy, becoming fans and an integral part of the club. Through firsthand accounts from the protagonists and founders, the session offers an authentic story of how sport can transform into an extraordinary tool for social cohesion. Because on and off the field, the only try that truly counts is the one scored together.
