lpv:spoken text	". – I fully support this report which recognises the diverse advantages that sport has to offer, from improving social skills and integration to working with and including voluntary organisations. Here in the EU, we constantly reiterate the need to promote integration: sport is the ideal way to achieve this. For too long sporting activities have come second to so-called formal education. To relegate sporting activities is to deny the host of benefits that sport brings; it is something at which all people can succeed, regardless of class and race. So, the promotion of sport also bolsters and enhances other Community projects, ranging from the fight against racism and social exclusion, to the inclusion of disabled people. Since so many of the EU's goals can be partially realised by promoting sports, the EU must promote sport as a functional as well as recreational activity. Lastly, once Member States begin to co-operate more in this domain and demonstrate how they have mainstreamed sport into their education systems, we will finally come to realise the full potential that sport has to offer."@en1
