MOVE Week, the annual Europe-wide event which promotes participating in sport and physical activity, is looking for people or organisations to coordinate events in their local area.
This year MOVE Week will take place from 29 September to 5 October. MOVE week is part of building the vision of getting 100 million people more active across Europe, and is building towards the European Parliament’s Week of Sport in 2015.
The MOVE Week coordinators, the MOVE Agents, can be a grassroots sport organisation, club, school, university, voluntary group, company, municipality/city or individual who organises a sport and physical activity event for MOVE Week.
Developing a MOVE event is easy – there are loads of great resources and ideas on the website and support you can get locally. MOVE agents who organise an event will receive a certificate from the International Sport and Culture Association.
To join leaders across 33 countries and become a MOVE agent – sign up at www.moveweek.eu and create your event online.
Once you have registered your event please contact StreetGames, the MOVE week coordinator for England, Wales and Northern Ireland, for your Move Week T shirts (for leaders) and Wristbands (for participants), while stocks last, via MoveWeek@streetgames.org.
For more information about MOVE week, contact Matt Kendall at MoveWeek@StreetGames.org.
