Théo Gmür

«Right To Play gives children in underprivileged countries the opportunity to experience sport, respect, fun but also for themselves. I am in favor of this initiative and I commit myself as a Right To Play ambassador. The chance I was given, every child should have. Physical and cultural differences should not be an obstacle to a child's physical development. People believed and still believe in my abilities and my wildest sports dreams, sport is in my opinion one of the most beautiful schools of life, which all children should have the right to.»
