Kids Day as part of the WTA Makarska Open, hosted by Valamar, gathered about a hundred children at Kačić Square again this year.

Today, Kačić Square in Makarska was filled with elementary school and kindergarten children. The youngest Makarans and Makarans could hardly wait for the tennis players of the WTA Makarska Open hosted by Valamar and bravely played a few points with them. A great introduction to the traditional Kids Day was an attractive match between tennis players and rugby players who are also playing the European Championship in Makarska.
First, tennis was played, then rugby, while the kids cheered heartily. Egyptian tennis player Mayar Sherif, Slovakian Anna Karolina Schmiedlova and Croatian representatives Lucija Ćirić Bagarić and Sara Svetac did well in rugby, but they beat the competition to the bone in tennis.
First the warm-up, then the competition, then ice cream and gifts and finally a joint photo shoot. Spending time with children passes quickly. Makarska Mayor Zoran Paunović and Deputy Antonija Radić also came to support the kids.
"This is a great event. There were many children and they cheered from the bottom of their hearts", said Mayar Sherif, last year's winner of the WTA Makarska Open, who was recognized by many Makarans, as well as foreigners, who asked her for a photo together.
