June 28 - 30, 2011
The
overall objective of the Twillingate - New World Island Unity Games is
to promote participation in sport among the youth of the Twillingate,
New World Island and Boyd's Cove area.
|
Games Objectives
- Grassroot
participation in sport and recreation
- Promote
active healthy lifestyles
- Participation in a
multi-sport event over three days
- Events taking
place in a fun-structured and non-competitive environment
|
The
primary goal will be to increase physical activity among the youth by
having them participate in recreational activities that they would not
normally take part in, thus hopefully motivating them to continue to be
active in their daily lives.

the games are open to participants from 10 to 18 years old.
Registration forms are available from the schools, from the

out
at the Games:
