YMCA Europe Festival 2008
3-9 August 2008, Prague, Czech Republic
Sports
The festival is not a place to just sit around and listen, but to get active and to move. This will happen in different places, such as in the Dance location and in front of the stages, and in various programmes – Scouting and Jungschar, Outdoor Activities, in some workshops, in the stage programmes, during the City Action… and, of course, in the sports programme.
We will have big tournaments, such as soccer, volleyball and basketball, there will be possibilities to play traditional YMCA sports, Indiaca,Ultimate Frisbee and others. And you can get to know and try out new sports from all over the YMCA world, especially from our friends from USA! For some games we will have tournaments, for most sports you can simply come and play and there will also be workshops offered for new sports.
We are sure that in playing sports together borders will be crossed and we can experience more facets of REAL LIFE.
The festival ground offers different places for sports facilities and next to it there is Stromovka Park which will also partly be used for soccer and other games. This park is also a good place for walking, jogging or inline skating…
The sports programme will be run in the afternoons during the workshop time.
The programme is prepared by the ESY group (“European Sport YMCA”).
