What is the program about?
Our sports program helps newcomers who have settled in Estonia from outside the European Union* to participate in the local community and find new friend through sports.
We organize monthly sports events and help you find local sports organizations, groups & trainings to join in.
If necessary, we can provide financial support for participation in trainings & activities. In some cases we also pay for the sport equipment.
Who can participate in the program?
If you are living in Estonia and are from outside the European Union* then this is the right place for you!
Are you a student trying to find a yoga class to meet new friends & unwind? Perhaps a mother trying to find a sports club for your kids? Or maybe you just love hiking outdoors but want to find someone to do it with?
We will help you with all of it!
We are also ready to help you connect with local sports organizations if you wish to continue your career in the field of sport in Estonia.
