Children ages 6-12 can have fun and experience new and exciting sport activities during the annual “All Sport One Day” event, taking place on the third Saturday in June. This city-wide event gives children a chance to try new activities and connects them and their families with local facilities and sport organizations. The first All Sport One Day event was held in Calgary in 2009, at two facilities with 450 kids. It has grown significantly since its debut, and currently includes 14 sport and recreation facilities, 50+ local sport organizations, and over 2,800 youth. Through “discovery sessions” held at each facility, All Sport One Day introduces as many youth as possible to a diverse range of sport activities. The event is a great opportunity for parents, youth, sport facilities and sport organizations to make connections, with an overarching goal of promoting sport and physical activity. All Sport One Day activities focus on developing physical literacy, which is just as important as the ability to read and write. With physical literacy, a door opens to a world of opportunities in sport and physical activity. Almost any sport you can think of is represented, from archery to wheelchair basketball, and all the sports in between!
