IT'S ABOUT SPORTSMANSHIP:
INTERNATIONAL WORLD FAIR PLAY DAY

International World Fair Play Day was officially established to celebrate and promote these principles annually. However, there are issues with the date of this event. The United Nations lists the date as May 19, but the original organizer has always celebrated on September 7. We're going with the UN date, but this may change.

International World Fair Play Day promotes fairness, integrity, and respect in sports. It celebrates the spirit of fair play and encourages athletes, coaches, and sports organizations to uphold these values on and off the field.

The concept of fair play has been integral to sports since ancient times. However, formally celebrating fair play began with the establishment of the International Fair Play Committee (CIFP) in 1963. The CIFP was founded to promote fair play principles and recognize those who exemplify these values.

In 1975, UNESCO adopted the International Charter of Physical Education and Sport, emphasizing the importance of fair play. This further reinforced the global commitment to promoting fairness and integrity in sports.
