Athletes from the West African nations of Senegal, Cameroon, Guinea, Mali and Niger vied for the championship trophy.
The volunteers invited the athletes to sign the Truth About Drugs Drug-Free Pledge and to set the example for youth by encouraging them to put their energy into sports, not drugs. They briefed the coaches and athletes on the most commonly abused drugs and gave them copies of booklets and videos to share with their friends and families.
Volunteers and athletes were eager to arrange follow-up activities including drug education workshops for youth in the athletes' communities.
The Brussels Branch of the Churches of Scientology of Europe supports the Say No to Drug Association, which uses the award-winning The Truth About Drugs booklets, public service announcements and feature length documentary.
It has been conclusively proven that when young people are provided with the truth about drugs—factual information on what drugs are and what they do—usage rates drop commensurately.
