In June the United World Games celebrated their 15 year anniversary, reason enough to take a look into the past and on the eventful history of our Games. With pride and joy we can reminisce about 15 years UWG, one and a half decade full of exciting competitions, continously growing popularity and interest, countless unique stories und unforgettable memories. Our community is growing with each year and yet we still have big plans.
We want to keep on building bridges and celebrate the positive and unifying power of sports, promoting respect and fairplay. How it all started… In the year a team of young and sports enthusiastic people decided to take a rather small regional sports event, which was primarily designed for Austrians, to a whole new international level.
It took an entire year to prepare and organise this international event and even more time was spent on the phone just to call and invite teams from all over Europe. The concept of Youth Games with an Olympic atmosphere and a strong focus on fun and personal intercultural encounters even off the fields, seemed to appeal to everyone right away.
All participants agreed: It had been a successful festival with a lot of new friends, which should not be missed in the years to come. In total more than 2. Once again the big international UWG family spent four exciting and action packed days together. Basketball, Soccer and Volleyball tournaments were played in Klagenfurt, whereas 5 more disciplines were featured at the Vienna edition Baseball, Bowling, Swimming, Tennis and Wrestling.

Informative age-based brochures provided by our partner UNESCO were handed out to all participating teams in order to point out the dangers of doping. Additionally, Handball was introduced as the fourth official sport and the first international Handball tournament in the history of the Games turned out to be a huge success right away. And there were even new participating countries — such as India, which sent two Basketball teams to the UWG Another very special highlight were the official UWG cheerleaders who did not just rock our venues but also broke one or two hearts.
For the first time in the history of the Games an international Fistball tournament was held and many young talents took part. It turned out to be an ideal showcase opportunity for the sport, which is played in many countries, but not yet known to many people.
Overall more than 4. With Indonesia, Canada and Palestine there were three newcomers among the starting countries. As in all the years before, the United World Games grew even bigger in as well, almost 6. But also offside the playing fields there were novelties, such as the Gala Evening for parents, sponsors and partners of the Games. Several new nations could be welcomed at the Games, among them South Africa and Luxembourg.
Both at the various sports tournaments and off the field as well there were numerous innovations and improvements. The tournament coordination and side events such as the big Opening Ceremony were optimised and expanded.
