Administration Sport Provence-Alpes-Côte D'Azur

Managed by the Bouches-du-Rhône County Council, the Maison Départementale de la Jeunesse et des Sports is an essential address for all information on sport in the Bouches-du-Rhône (information on leisure activities, information on sports professions, support for association project leaders, etc.). It is a centre of welcome and expression between the Department, young people, their parents and the entire associative and sporting movement. You will find in this place 1 000 ^{m2 of} connected space as well as teams at your disposal

Claiming 50 clubs and 14 000 licensees, cdv 13 is able to recommend the best addresses of clubs, schools and internships… sailing, obviously!

The regional committee will know about the various underwater disciplines such as diving diving, scuba diving, underground diving, swimming with palms, underwater hockey, deep water swimming, underwater fishing and a target in swimming pool. Emanation of the national FFESSM (whose seat is also in Marseille), it is able to provide you with an even more focused answer to your requests concerning the world of diving. Note that Marseilles regularly hosts the world underwater Image festival under the aegis of the FFESSM.

If you are an individual, you can't do anything for you, except to guide you in a kind way, which is not so bad already. On the other hand, this service deals with the provision of associations, sports infrastructure (everything except stands) and logistical equipment of all kinds: tags, straw boots… in official demonstrations. This year, there is a lot of talk about the future grand stadium and the reception of the Europe Football Cup for 2016, but do you rest on a multitude of other sports in the city marseille, not?

This sport includes different sections of amateur, professional, educational and feminine boxing. If you encounter amateur and professional competitions, only amateurs are allowed to fight at the Olympic Games. For a practice of noble art in good conditions, the English Boxing Committee of Bouches-du-Rhône will tell you the appropriate club near you. From Richard Caramanolis to Mehdi Sahnoune by Gracien Tona, English boxing has always stirred crowds in the cité city. Professional boxing is divided mainly between four competing federations: WBA, WBCS, WBO, IBF.

If you feel the soul of Joachim Noah or Tony Parker, but you still don't know where to show your address to the shoot or your phenomenal relaxation, go to the committee, and you will get all the information about clubs, courses or matches taking place within the department. But tell me, do you know that basketball was invented in 1891 by James Naismith, a Canadian physical education teacher at the Springfield college in Massachusetts state in the USA? He sought to occupy his students between football and baseball seasons during the winter, during which the practice of outdoor sport was difficult. The success of this sport was immediate even if the score of the first official part resulted in a pitiful 1 to 0. Today, basketball is a major sport and world stars are real icons.

For bicycle enthusiasts, mountain biking in the department is a pleasure for all with more than 1 500 km of marked mountain bike paths and five labeled bases. As for cycling, it has always been practiced. Many tourist tours allow you to discover the gorges du Verdon, the Valensole plateau or the lakes of Verdon.

This address will also provide information on canyon descents. The region totals nearly 70 per cent of very varied heights and difficulties.

Stay in water with canoeing, rafting, tubing and swimming in deep water. The Alpes-de-Haute-Provence has exceptional sites for the practice of all living water.

The sports directorate of the city of Aix publishes every year a brochure detailing all sports and places where practicing them. You will find all this information on the town hall website. Fencing, basketball, Hip Hop, boxing, gymnastics, judo, American football, taekwondo… for you to choose!
