Dear World Games Fans!

The 'World Games Fun Day' acquaints young and old with 30+ sports of The World Games 2005 in Duisburg, Germany, and offers an opportunity for highly entertaining workouts.

50 exercises make up the World Games Fun Day: playful first encounters with sports ranging – alphabetically – from aikido to water ski. These exercises were developed by German sports pedagogues (under the lead of Christoph Gehrt-Butry on behalf of the Duisburg Sports Council and the Organizing Committee for The World Games 2005) for physical education classes to be held at schools in North Rhine-Westphalia. But many of the exercises can be easily adapted to all-ages programs elsewhere: from psychomotor education in a kindergarten all the way to fitness classes for senior citizens and even parties. They are flexible and ageless. Above all, they’re for fun!

All those interested in celebrating sport, physical education, fitness and fun are invited to make good use of them.
