European Sports Week 2025

The proposal that we launch to the Educational Centers is that they participate in the SED-24:

1.  
   1. Organizing competitions that start that week and continue for the rest of the course.
   2. Organizing outdoor sports content excursions throughout the week that involve all students.
   3. Addressing the topic of healthy eating habits and active life, in a transversal way, in all or several of its subjects
   4. Offering a piece of fruit and suppressing industrial pastry to their students every day of that week (and possibly until the end of the year).
   5. Developing some physical activity that involves a large number of students.
   6. In this link you have specific information to carry out activities on the European School Sports Day that is always celebrated on the Friday of the European Sports Week of each edition.

Our goal is for each Educational Center to upload to the SED platform at least one action of those described, recording their participation.

Universities are proposed to participate with the following alternatives:

1. Organizing sporting events, championships, races, seminars.
2. Offering a piece of fruit and suppressing industrial pastry to their students every day of that week.
3. Making appointment of Doctor Honoris Causa to a noted sportsman.
4. Opening their sports facilities to all students and offering them free demonstration classes.
5. Promoting the SED by placing a BEACTIVE banner in a visible place.
6. Creating new spaces for sports practice, changing rooms with showers…

Our objective is that each university uploads to the platform at least one action of those described, leaving a record of their participation.

The managers of the Sports Centers are proposed to participate with the following alternatives:

a) Taking their activity to the street or exhibiting what they do in their clubs.

b) Organizing open house days.

c) Making significant discounts during that week or that month, or free trial sessions.

d) Making it visible that it is attached to the SED with the #BEACTIVE logo that is available on the CSD website “certifying” itself as a health promoting establishment.

e) You can contact your city council to see if it will participate by promoting activities to celebrate European Sports Week in which your centre can collaborate.

Our goal is that each Sports Center uploads to the SED platform at least one action of those described, recording their participation.

The proposal that we launch to the Sports Federations is to participate in the SED-24:

1. Giving diffusion of the SED-24 in its media and networks.
2. Providing support to municipalities that request it to promote their sport during the SED-24.

Our goal is for each Federation to upload to the SED platform at least one of the actions described, recording their participation.

The proposal we are launching for companies is to hold the SED-24 from 23 to 30 September, organizing special events as part of European Sports Week by uploading them to the CSD event registration platform. In this platform, along with their activity registration data, companies can put a link to their website.

They are proposed to participate with the following alternatives:

a) Exhibiting what they do in their Work Centers.

b) Making it visible that it is attached to the SED with the #BEACTIVE logo that is available on the CSD website “certifying” itself as a health promoting establishment.

c) Perform a special action:

- Competition of workers who are following the activity program,

- Clinic with an expert in training/food/health,

- Leaving the environment to perform a healthy activity,

- Hold a collective master class in downtown facilities or an open space (parking…)

Our goal is for each Work Center to upload to the SED platform at least one of the actions described, recording their participation.

The importance of influencers has been increasing during the pandemic and has been one of the keys to keeping the population active, which has been a fundamental physical and mental benefit for many of us. At CSD, in the face of this situation of new normality, we want to recognize their work and encourage them to continue promoting physical activity and sport through their channels.

We want to encourage you to take on a challenge on your social media with #BEACTIVE, specially designed for European Sports Week, from 23 to 30 September. Anyone who gets more likes on October 1st will receive the CSD_BEACTIVE award, which will be presented by the President of the CSD at the Awards Gala at the end of November, where they will be able to meet other winners, the CSD authorities, the sports ambassadors of the SED-24 and they will be able to enjoy a guided visit to the facilities of the CAR of Madrid. Above all, however, they will have contributed to the promotion of healthy physical activity in this European initiative.

This Gala will be attended by the media.

To participate you must send your challenge proposal to infosed@csd.gob.es with the following content:

• Name of author/influencer.
• Social network used.
• Screenshot with the number of likes as of October 1.
• Link to the video for viewing and possible editing for the CSD-BEACTIVE Awards Gala.

Participation in this contest will mean the cession of the use of the winning videos by the CSD to promote the SED-24.

EUROPEAN SPORTS WEEK 2024:

In the tenth edition of the European Sports Week (SED), held as every year from 23 to 30 September, we have recorded 1032 activities, far exceeding the record reached in 2019, which was 798.

This has been achieved thanks to the close collaboration with our partners, the Olympic athletes who participated in our promotional video of the SED-2024 and having established special synergies with the organizers of the European School Sports Day and those of the European Mobility Week

Vigo hosted the main event of the SED-2024 with a long day of activities that began at 17:00 and culminated with a #BEACTIVE NIGHT at 23:00.All the Autonomous Communities plus the two autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla participated with activities, which is a milestone of participation that we hope will be maintained in future editions.

EUROPEAN SPORTS WEEK 2023:

Within the framework of the activities of the Spanish Presidency of the Council of the European Union, the City of Arts and Sciences of Valencia hosted on September 23 the main events of the European Sports Week of 2023. In this context, the meeting of the European Union Directors-General of Sport and the Conference on Safe Environments in Sport were also held.

EUROPEAN SPORTS WEEK 2022:

Finally, after years of restrictions caused by the pandemic, in 2022 we were able to organize a European Sports Week without limitations in terms of special preventive hygiene measures for infections.

In this eighth edition, held as every year from 23 to 30 September, we have recorded 773 activities, just 25 of the record reached in 2019, which was 798. We have been supported by entities such as the COE, the COE, the Sanitas Foundation or the ONCE together with other usual partners such as the Fundación España Activa, the Fundación Deportes Joven or the Ploggin Tour circuit. All of them have promoted activities within this week promoting healthy living through physical activity, sport and healthy eating habits.

Melilla hosted the main event of the SED-2022 with a long day of activities that culminated with a #BEACTIVE NIGHT. To this event were added other municipalities of Andalusia and the Region of Murcia that received the support of the CSD in the form of dissemination material and monitors for the development of their master classes with a significant influx of public. In total, 9 #BEACTIVE events were organized with the direct support of the CSD. 13 of the 17 Autonomous Communities that make up our country participated. This means a reduction in participation by autonomies that we will face for the next edition.

EUROPEAN SPORTS WEEK 2021:

In this seventh edition of the European Sports Week, it was decided not to promote numerous multitudinous events, as was our custom in pre-pandemic times, due to the validity of the risk of contagion in Spain despite the massive vaccination that has been carried out in our country. Even so, we have been able to record a significant number of activities (191) that have been uploaded to our platform from all over the national geography.

We wanted to remain cautious and therefore we have organized a single great event, the BEACTIVE NIGHT of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, which was a great success of attendance, in which visitors could practice very different sports modalities in a festive atmosphere. This video illustrates what has been done with the invaluable collaboration of the City of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.

We have also challenged the Municipalities of Spain to send us a video of around 1’30” that reflects the sports offer of their town or city classified in four different categories depending on their population and we have received 63 high-quality proposals of which we leave you a sample below. We hope that these images will motivate us to stay active by taking advantage of the resources that the municipalities put at our disposal.

EUROPEAN SPORTS WEEK 2020:

The appearance of COVID-19 meant the restriction of sports activity in Spain, especially at the end of September, after the summer, in which the number of infections and deaths was increasing daily. This meant the cancellation of all the participatory events that could have been proposed, including the one we wanted to have held in Gijón, which had to be transformed in a matter of days into a closed-door filming of the master class that we had planned to have done in a central area and close to the beach of San Lorenzo.

Instead we proposed the participation in a photo and video course to which some high-quality works were presented but, as happened with the other face-to-face events, the awards ceremony also had to be suspended, the trophies being sent to their respective recipients by postal mail.

We are pinning our hopes on mass vaccination that will allow us to re-celebrate the SED as usual, with great participation from the entire sports sector.

EUROPEAN SPORTS WEEK 2019:

The fifth edition of the European Sports Week was held from 23 to 30 September 2019. In our country it was inaugurated on September 21 at the High Performance Center of Madrid with an Open Day in which more than a thousand people participated. From September 23 to 27, promotional events with sports activities were held in municipalities, schools, universities, hostiptales, sports clubs, work centers, museums, etc. The Week closed with the celebration of twelve #BEACTIVE NIGHTS in different Spanish highlighting the one in Ciudad Real on the night of September 28th to 29th.It should be noted that in this edition more than twice the activities uploaded to the platform of the European Week of Sport have been registered, which were uploaded in the previous edition, showing the growing commitment of sports entities with this initiative. In this video you can discover how the BeActive Night of Ciudad Real was.

We doubled the number of activities carried out from 23 to 30 September uploaded to the platform compared to the previous year: from the 336 activities registered in 2018, we went to a total of 682 activities in 2019.According to data from the Executive Agency for Education, Audiovisual and Culture (EACEA), Spain has been the country with the greatest impact on social networks of the 42 participating countries with 23%, followed by the United Kingdom with 17.4%.

12 #BEACTIVE events were organized with the direct support of the CSD throughout the Spanish territory.More than 340,000 participants were counted.Sixteen of the 17 Autonomous Communities that make up our country participated.
