(ANS – St. Gallen) – The longer the war in Ukraine lasts, the more young men die or return from the front as war casualties or are injured as civilians in the hail of bombs. They have lost a leg or an arm to shrapnel or exploding mines. These people have to find a new foothold in life, a new task and new courage. Don Bosco has therefore supplemented the football school that has been successfully established in Lviv for years with teams of so-called “amputee football”. It is the first football school of its kind in the whole country.
