"These events will be held in the heart of each arrondissement, bringing together people from all walks of life. Children, adults or families. With these events, we want everyone to be able to come and have fun, take part and try to become a champion," enthuses Adrian Tocilovac, Sports Advisor for the City of Paris' Youth and Sports Department. "There's something for everyone, with age categories ranging from 7-12 year-olds, 13-16 year-olds, 17-35 year-olds to over-35s. And all events will be mixed! In the case of 3x3 basketball, each team must include at least one girl".

Le Stade Charléty, a venue for great sporting performances
Opened in 1939 and completely renovated in 1994, this 19,000-seater stadium has seen some great sporting events: in 1980, the world pole-vault record was beaten here by Philippe Houvion (5.77 m), member of the Paris Université Club!
Throughout the year, the venue hosts Paris FC's men and women's soccer teams. As well as Paris Volleyball, who have been crowned French champions on multiple occasions.
