Founded in 1933, The Sports and Leisure Association (S&L) of the International Labour Office encourages well-being and communication between colleagues through the practice of sport and leisure activities.The ambition of the Association is to bring together, promote and animate, on an entirely voluntary basis, a community spirit with the help of sport and culture. We wish you a pleasant visit to our site!
The 48th Inter-Agency Games will be held from 18-22 October 2023 in the Algarve region of Portugal. Our hosting location is the city and municipality of Vila Real de Santo Antonio (VRSA) and the event will be held under the patronage of the mayor himself. The city celebrates sport, being host to major events all year around and being the destination of choice for many sports federations. The "the excellence" of the VRSA High Performance Center and sport facilities have recently been recognized by the Olympic Committee of Portugal and the city is working towards becoming the country’s capital of sport and champions.
This year’s Inter-Agency Games (IAG) marks the 55th anniversary of the event. Ever since its inauguration in 1968 it has been a career highlight for thousands of colleagues and one of the most memorable opportunities to network with colleagues from around the world and compete against each other in their favorite sports discipline through friendly competition. With this in mind we set out to plan an event that would celebrate sporting excellence in an environment that allows us to disconnect from the stresses of everyday office life, but also connect to our colleagues and friends from around the globe.
