Discover The World Games Channel

 In May the International World Games Federation (IWGA) launched its own video channel under the tag: "Discover the World of Sports."

The Word Games Channel is an additional media platform for the top events of our member association und it is the heart of our media strategy. The first event to be watched on the channel was the Orienteering European Skiing Championships in Tyumen/Russia and the Waterskiing World Cup in Mandalah/Australia.

Meanwhile the IWGA presented more than 190 live events with competitions staged in 26 countries all over the world. Right now, we are aiming to take the next step: Olympic Broadcasting Services plans to cooperate with the IWGA , complementing coverage of these sports on The World Games Channel. By the way, this weekend you can watch the 10th Men’s World Floorball Championships in Gothenburg/Sweden.
