Whether football, gymnastics or swimming – big competitions are not only a special experience for athletes, for example world championships or the Olympic Games. Many sports fans are also happy about it. Some are on site, others keep their fingers crossed in front of the screen or television.

Over 50 world and European championships have taken place in Germany in the last ten years. That’s a good thing, say many politicians, because these competitions, for example, get children excited about sports. So that there will be many major sporting events in our country in the future, politicians and experts have come up with a plan. This was discussed in the Bundestag.

The plan of the German politicians is, for example, that those who organize the competitions should work closely together and exchange ideas. But it is now the case that other countries also want to hold major competitions. They are also making an effort and making plans to have sports competitions in their country. They also apply for it.

In the Bundestag, some people said that they did not like the plan for Germany. Some said that it was too imprecise in some places and that many questions were not answered. You can find out more about sport in Germany at Website of the German Sports Youth. (15.03.2021)
