Pandemic challenges for sports programs and projects for people with disabilities: Healthy routine challenge program
The rapid spread of the new coronavirus throughout the world, brought uncertainty about how to control the disease and many people with disabilities who practiced physical and sports activities had to stop practicing these activities due to the impact of the pandemic. With this, the Paripe Sports Project of Sergipe (PPdSE), launched itself in the mission of creating the Programa Desafio Routina Saudável (Routine Healthy Challenge), which mobilizes itself to fight social distance by building a healthy routine for everyone involved in its activities as students and teachers. The purpose of this study was to describe the actions taken, the difficulties and the perspectives experienced from the implementation of the Healthy Routine Challenge Program. Monthly challenges were carried out and every five weeks the goals of the actions taken were changed. The impact of the Healthy Routine Challenge was positive and the importance of this multidisciplinary monitoring was proven, serving as a support network. Our greatest perspective is that the program can serve as an example for other people and that they may be taking advantage of the program to promote a better quality of life and routine in other people.
