About the World Games

Mission:
Provide a world-class cultural, interactive and competitive experience for private and public secondary school athletes.

Statement of Need:
Sports have always served as a significant source of social interaction and competitive opportunities. As the world has become smaller, and cultural interaction more desirable and important, international sport competitions have taken on greater significance. Demonstrated by the increase of availability at various levels of age, ability and special interest. One large gap remains - for students in secondary schools. The World School Games and Cultural Festival now fills that gap.

About the World School Games:
World School Games is an athletic and cultural event for teams or individuals currently enrolled in a secondary school at the time of competition - international, boarding, private or public - from across the globe. Teams of athletes participate as a representative of their school, athletic conference or city.

The six-day event consists of medal contending athletic competitions, an Opening Cultural Ceremony, cultural and social events. Promotion and sharing of cultural ideals by the host city and among athletes is a centerpiece of the Games experience. All athletes and delegates are housed together at a local university.

The inaugural World School Games will take place July 20 - 25, 2010 in Cleveland, Ohio USA, a large multi-ethnic city with a history of hosting major international events.
