Self-Organised or Not: Spond Has the Tools You Need for All Physical Activity

The sports landscape in Europe is evolving, and so are we at Spond. A recent study by Play the Game and a new resolution from the EU Council have highlighted a significant shift towards supporting self-organised sports. We’re excited about this change and are ready to support the diverse ways people engage in physical activity.

A New Era for Sports and Physical Activity

Under the Belgian EU Presidency, the EU Council has recognised the growing trend of self-organised sports. This shift is based on data showing that Europeans increasingly prefer informal settings for their physical activities, such as exercising outdoors, during commutes, or at home. They are moving away from traditional competitive sports structures.
