In eight successful season we have made happy numerous pupils in all Croatian counties, and made some of their most wonderful childrens' sport dreams come true for those who proved successful. Guided by the idea of Zvonimir Boban, captain of the legendary Croatian football team "Vatreni", to combine sports, culture, creativity, authorship and healthy lifestyle, promote fair play and sport cheering, one of the most successful sport projects intended for the youngest was realised. This manifestation carried the name Čokolino All-rounder till the 2010/11 season, and it enables students to express talents in graphic and literary creations, songs, dance, acting, but also in meeting the prominent sportsmen of our country.
Each school year 24 competitions are being held in elementary schools all over Croatia and one final competition that gathers the winners of all the schools competitions who try to win the fulfillment of their sport dream. Along with the cup, the winners of Lino All-rounder also get an opportunity to choose a sport event they want to attend, and Podravka and Sportske novosti make their dream come true.
