European Para Youth Games
A clear vision
The European Para Youth Games mark the beginning of a journey for Para athletes. Through competition and education, they will start to discover and push their limits, grow into role models, and aim for European and world championships, as well as the Paralympic Games.
This multi-sport event serves as a platform for young athletes with disabilities, members, sports, partners, and organisers to connect, collaborate, and celebrate. To grow, aspire and play.
