Athlete Comments & Reviews
“I meet great people playing sport!”
Sport’s everything, I need it for my wellbeing, it helps me push myself, it keeps me fit and you meet great people as well.
“You play sport and are a tourist at the same time!”
“Being part of the Games allows you to be a tourist as well and being part of everything that is going on in the area.”
“These Games are for everyone!”
“There’s a lot of positives to play these tournaments and as I said before it’s more about participation, it’s about the vibe, just enjoying playing sport, regardless of the standard. There is something there for everyone. Everyone can join in.”
