Annual Sporting Event Hosted by the Department of Sports Relocates to The Sports Holiday Games Venue
For an exciting and active summer holiday, the City of Aachen is organizing a free sports vacation for children aged 6 to 8. The event, running from Monday, July 14, until Friday, August 1, 2025, promises a week of sports and games activities every weekday [1].
The sports vacation will take place at the Geschwister-Scholl-Gymnasium, Stolberger Straße 200, and each day will feature presentations from three different sports clubs: Basketball Community Aachen Grün-Weiß Vaalserquartier e. V, Dance-Evolution AC e. V, and Aachener Judo Club 1953 e. V [2].
Participation is free for all children, and no registration is required. However, parents must fill out and send the consent form available at www.ourwebsite.de/ferienspiele [1]. If a child is allowed to go home alone, this should be noted in the consent form.
The activities will run between 9 am and 1 pm, and parents are responsible for picking up their children at 1 pm. It is essential to note that only indoor shoes are allowed in the hall, and children should come in weather-appropriate sportswear. Participants should also bring healthy snacks and enough drinks [3].
The sports vacation is under the organization of Mrs. Ptak (0241 432-5223) and Mrs. Schartmann (0241 432-5226) from the sports department of the city of Aachen [1].
For official and up-to-date details about registrations, consent forms, and the full list of participating sports clubs, it would be best to consult the City of Aachen's official website or contact their sports office directly [1][3].
For those interested in other free sports events or indoor/outdoor sports facilities in Aachen, the City of Aachen also offers free outdoor gyms and organizes other youth games during the summer [3].
