ISCA’s MOVE Congress is back! Early bird tickets are now on sale for the biggest conference in the world dedicated to recreational sport and health-enhancing physical activity. This year we’re getting ready to Level up. Shape up. Power up. with 400 change-makers in Madrid, Spain, on 15-17 November 2023. For only €200, you can be part of this dynamic networking event packed with inspiring guest speakers, pulse-raising debates and panel discussions, interactive workshops and masterclasses.

Our sector is about much more than sport and this is the conference where you can raise your voice when it comes to big issues like mental and physical health, the future of our planet, the threats and opportunities presented by the digital world, and social inclusion.

Level up: Gain inspiration, skills and strength to advance to the next level – you don’t need to be a computer game hero to join in, but you’ll learn how to defeat inactivity monsters like one.

Shape up: Fit bodies, fit minds, a healthy planet and a healthy sector can achieve much more. So how can we get into better shape to move with the times and make a difference?
