Française des Jeux (FDJ) has unveiled new sporting facilities in Montargis as part of an initiative to support grassroots sport in France.
‘Gaining Ground’ is designed to encourage citizens to get involved in sports, offering funding for new facilities and equipment.
The scheme was launched in May and represents a partnership between FDJ, France’s National Sports Agency and Paris 2024, an organisation for the upcoming Summer Olympic Games.
Gaining Ground targets municipalities that have joined ‘Terre de Jeux 2024,’ a broader national scheme intended to change “people’s daily lives through sport.”
