Les Jeux internationaux des écoliers furent fondés il y a presque 47 ans à Celje en Slovénie par Metod Klemenc, un enseignant et professeur d’éducation physique. [...] Depuis 1968, plus de 37 000 athlètes provenant de plus de 86 pays et de 411 villes de partout dans le monde y ont pris part. Les Jeux sont maintenant reconnus par le Comité international olympique. Les Jeux internationaux des écoliers donnent une occasion spéciale aux jeunes de 12 à 15 ans, avec le soutien de leurs parents et entraîneurs, de prendre part à des compétitions avec d’autres jeunes athlètes dans un contexte mondial unique. 2, record 1, French, - Jeux%20internationaux%20des%20%C3%A9coliers
