Biocair recently announced its new sponsorship of Flanders-based table tennis sports club, TTC and Leie. The club’s 160 members compete in both the Belgian national and regional leagues, as well as participating in international tournaments.
As part of the sponsorship Biocair is supporting the Multimove project, a pioneering exercise program designed to encourage exercise among young children aged between 3-8 years old. Focusing on developing motor skills, the program is led by a team of certified trainers and combines a variety of different sports with the aim of developing 12 fundamental movements.

These are all basic skills that a child should acquire at a young age to stimulate and promote motor development, and include movements such as climbing, catching and jumping. The Multimove project was first developed in a study by the Universities of Ghent, Brussels and Leuven in Belgium.
Didier Vanden Abeele, General Manager for Biocair Belgium, comments:
"With Biocair being based in Belgium, it’s great to see the company actively supporting the local communities in which it operates.
I see first-hand the benefits Multimove brings to the young children beyond the scientific and motor development, such as skills gained from learning to work together as a team and developing new friends."
