Discover movement - experience fun
How do I find the right sport for me? Many children ask themselves this question - and this is exactly where the Day of Sport and Health Promotion in Jena comes in: The aim of the event is to playfully introduce children between the ages of seven and twelve to sport, exercise and togetherness in a club. Open, low-threshold and lots of fun, local sports clubs offer a wide range of opportunities to try out and discover on two days in May.
