Organized by the Departmental Olympic and Sports Committee of the Alpes-Maritimes, in partnership with the Departmental Council 06 and the National Sports Agency, this large free event for initiating sports will take place from July 8 to August 18, from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM and from 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM.
This 20th edition will celebrate sport as an effective tool for promotion, development of practice, and mobilization to defend Olympic values, but also to win back members to the clubs in the Côte d’Azur region.
This summer, children aged 4 to 14 can participate for free in a multitude of sports activities.
Other important aspects include civic actions with the firefighters of SDIS 06 to teach lifesaving skills, the gendarmerie on addictive behaviors, recycling by the French Riviera Agglomeration Community, and educational workshops “Red Card to Violence”.
Philippe Manassero, President of CDOS 06, wanted the main theme this year to focus on solidarity with several stages in the municipalities severely affected by Storm Alex, and the publication of a postcard allowing people to write “a message of support” to Nice stadium rugby player, James Lasis, who was seriously injured during a national match.
