In September 2022, three events were organised as part of the third international Sports Club for Health (SCforH) project entitled “Creating mechanisms for continuous implementation of the Sports Club for Health guidelines in the European Union”.

A symposium titled Sports Club for Health (SCforH) approach: evidence on importance and examples of implementation activities was held in Nice, France, on September 01, as part of the HEPA Europe conference. It was attended by >40 participants.

The International Conference for Sports Associations and Clubs: Improving Health Through Sport was held in Zagreb, Croatia, on September 22, at the University of Zagreb Faculty of Kinesiology.

The Conference brought together approximately 130 participants from sports clubs and associations, government institutions, science, and higher education. It included six invited lectures, a panel discussion with leading Croatian experts in sports promotion, and SCforH workshop, followed by a lunch for the attendees and an informal exchange of experiences.

On September 23, the 5th SCforH Project Team Meeting was held at the University of Zagreb Faculty of Kinesiology. Sixteen Project Members attended the Meeting and discussed about the progress of a range of activities within the project.

The organisation of the three events has been generously supported and co-funded by the European Commission, Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) through an Erasmus+ Collaborative partnerships grant.
