5 weeks to go

35th edition of ATLETICAGENEVE, memorial Georges  Caillat The Geneva International meeting is now anchored in the tradition and corresponds to the official launch of the Swiss international season. And the word international is not in vain: ATLETICAGENEVE regularly attracts more than 60 nations (65 in 2022) for the 550 athletes from 5 continents. Bronze, the meeting knew how to evolve with modern athletics and keep intact its attractiveness and even develop it! Despite its extremely modest (not to say fragile) budget, the meeting continues on its way thanks to the help of the work of passionate volunteers who receive no salary or compensation of any kind. Geneva meeting is very attractive because of various key points. Of course the warm welcome from the whole organizing committee who make this meeting friendly and accessible. But also for other practical reasons. Geneva has a…

ATLETICAGENEVE top athletes, attract the young talents to the Visana-Sprint

As usual, ATLETICAGENEVE creates emulation and motivation by organizing 100m and 800m races in the middle of a meeting for a selection of the best young Geneva talents aged 16 and 17 (U18). These races are a great motivation for these athletes who, like Timothé Mumenthaler, winner of the U16s’s 100m in 2019, now belong to the Swiss elite.It is therefore with the same motivation and the same enthusiasm that, on the initiative of Michèle Garlinski, we launched the idea of a Geneva final in the city centre. Thanks to Visana and the total adherence to this initiative of the Geneva Athletics Association (AGA) and the essential support of the Sports Department of the City of Geneva, the “VISANA-SPRINT” will be organized on Wednesday May 7, before the Mur des Réformateurs! Magnificent project which materializes by having polarized the skills and…

Round table for the 25th anniversary of AC&T Sport Consulting to discuss safeguarding

Round table for the 25th anniversary of AC&T Sport Consulting to discuss safeguarding The fundamental and historical priority of ATLETICAGENEVE on the values and ethical principles that can be summarized, in the very broad sense, of fair play, have positioned ATLETICAGENEVE and also the meetings of the EAP circuit (European Athletics Promotion) with whom she inseparably shares destiny, among precursor events. Starting at the end of the 80s / beginning of the 90s on the principle of fair competition, without cheaters (doping), the concept has evolved over the years, but always having as a priority “here only athletes who give the best of themselves, on equal terms”. From the mid-1990s (with the advent of the fax) all participation contracts required the double validation of the sworn statement not to be doped and sanctions for the transgression of this clause. We…

Sports volunteering party at the Cirque de Noël

Sports volunteering party at the Cirque de Noël Geneva, 1st December 2022 It is a wonderful initiative that the City of Geneva and “Geneva Bénévolat”, the Geneva volunteering platform (which we have been using for several years) to organize a first celebration of sports volunteering. It was therefore at the Pajazzo’s Cirque de Noël, on the plain of Plainpalais, that all the sports organizations of the canton were invited and met for a magical and wonderful evening, inaugurated by a speech full of motivation, enthusiasm and energy, beautiful words, recognition and, magnificent, beautiful projects from the Mayor of Geneva, Marie Barbey-Chappuis.

Seminar and workshops of Swiss Athletics 2022

We were present at the traditional Swiss Athletics seminar on November 19, 2022, in particular at the Communication and Ethics workshops. The latter was particularly interesting and very topical for us who were already present at the World Athletics seminar just 4 weeks ago (at the same time as Swiss Athletics). Delighted to (re)see our federation already very actively at work and with the desire to integrate these new standards emanating from Swiss Olympic related to ethics (including in all the processes of the federation itself) and to situations doping, cheating and sexual harassment and abuse. This will have, among other consequences, the modification of the statutes of Swiss Athletics. Our history, directly linked to that of the EAP circuit, shows to what extent we were pioneers, not to say visionaries, (more than 30 years!) in the fight against doping.…
