50 students from 12 institutions (one school, nine middle schools, and two high schools, including some students with disabilities) will participate in a grand relay on the Promenade des Anglais for the 2015 National School Sports Day.
At the end of the relay, the flame of the Year of School Sports to University will be lit in the presence of personalities from the National Education, the Olympic movement, and local authorities.
The objective of the National School Sports Day is to better acquaint and promote the activities of school sports associations and federations among students, educational teams, parents, the local sports community, and territorial authorities.
This day has been chosen as the official launch date for the “Year of School Sports to University 2015-2016”.
Furthermore, the National School Sports Day is included in the “Feel Sport!” operation organized by the French National Olympic and Sports Committee (CNOSF) from September 12 to 20, with numerous public and private partners.
