A new way to play
Toro at sport facilities
The Yalp Toro is a sports field that challenges a very wide audience . Especially when the Toro used for sports activities such as football or hockey training . The Yalp Toro was developed from the ideas of former hockey player and hockey coach Marc Lammers . He concluded that children should have the ability to just try out things more and thereby get more skilled in a playful way . Furthermore , the four goals of the Yalp Toro sports court ensure a much more active game than with 2 goals .
Children loose interest in sports
Marc Lammers : “ When my son was 7 years old , he didn ’ t want to join me to the hockey club any more . There was nothing to do , was my son ’ s explanation . This is reality for many children at sport clubs . They have to come along with their parents , but get bored soon as all sports fields are occupied and there is no other facility to entertain them .
The consequences are worse than imagined . The children loose interest in sports or the parents quit visiting the sport club because their children don ’ t want to join them anymore . Marc Lammers is wondering ; “ how would it be if children do have fun at their local sports club ?” The Yalp Toro is a sports court that appeals to the current generation children and ensures fun for everyone .
