One recognises education qualifications earned in 2026; the other, called Pass Loisirs, supports local secondary-school pupils taking part in sport.

The sports route requires a 2026–2027 school-enrolment certificate and a sports licence for the season. Documents are due at the town hall before October 30\. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/macquigny-youth-intersport-gift-card-awards/#article-source-1) Ratte told the newspaper that the council had accepted the proposal to encourage study and sport, addressing an age group between existing arrangements for young children and older residents. He described the awards as having no income condition. This is the mayor’s reported explanation of the scheme, rather than a measured effect on educational achievement or sports participation. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/macquigny-youth-intersport-gift-card-awards/#article-source-1) Intersport’s public professional gift-card page advertises two-year validity for its general e-card offer. The local report does not identify the municipality’s purchased card contract, activation date or distribution timetable, so a specific expiry date for these awards cannot be established from that general offer. [\[S02\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/macquigny-youth-intersport-gift-card-awards/#article-source-2) The report gives no programme budget or expected recipient total and supplies no completed issuance or redemption results. The application requirements and EUR 25 values are documented; whether one person can receive both awards remains unstated.
