From May to September, there are regular free sports activities on the new football pitches:
- Open football training by the Protestant Youth Welfare Association – once a week
- "Sport in the Park" with Sportkinder Berlin eV - Tuesdays 2-4 pm (e.g. creative dance with Anna)
- A Basketball project for the new playing area on Fahrenheitstrasse is being planned
- “Active break” of the Mercator elementary school, which uses the space once a week for its students
These programs are aimed specifically at children and young people who previously had no access to local sports clubs. They are given a free opportunity to interact, play sports together, and make new friends. "Kick it like Thermo" strengthens community cohesion, promotes intercultural exchange, and gives young people the opportunity to take on responsibility.
