Cabrillo recalled that for the 2017/2018 academic year the Ministry "issued a resolution that did not allow during school hours the sports activities carried out by the City Council" in schools, including the recruitment of students for the School Games. Since the application of this measure "an alarming decrease in the number of participants has been detected" in the School Games, which is "in the reduction of the strengthening of healthy habits of life and the promotion of sport" and that is due to "the contact of the sports technicians with the students has been reduced ". Hence, "it is necessary for technicians to attend recesses to contact the students, encourage them to participate in the School Games and inform about the schedules of training and matches."
