We're making a difference
Since 1994, GoodSports has been making a difference in the lives of youth and young families in Slovakia.
Through physical, educational and inspirational experiences, young people are given options often unavailable elsewhere. For some it means a chance to develop leadership skills while others grow in English proficiency greatly broadening opportunities as they approach adulthood.

HOW WE DO WHAT WE DO
English Baseball/Sports CAMP coming in 2026
What used to be called the "Bojnice Camp" has moved 20 minutes away to the village of Klačno. For the third year Klačno has been home to 100 campers who were ready to put the school year behind them. The 2025 camp was a huge success with 19 North Americans joining volunteers and GS staff. Accommodations are very comfortable with good food and adjacent soccer field. We've booked dates for 2026 and registration has begun. We already have a lot of interest so sign up early. We are also planning for a large number of familiar faces to join us from North America. 30 years! Wow!!
Daily Camps
coming again in 2026
The summer included a daily camp for 41 children ages 5-12. GoodSports also partnered with three other organizations to provide summer activities for children in the community. There were fitness camps, tournaments and daily activities at the GS Club.
Volunteers are a critical part of what keeps GoodSports actively involved in the lives of young people and families. As fall programming begins with after-school activities, an energetic group of middle-school students are lending a hand.

Our 2025 GoodSports European Christmas Trip was a huge success! Thanks to the 23 people who joined us! Stay tuned for future trips.
Respect is demonstrated through:
-
learning that winning is about giving our best effort, not the score,
-
learning to be truthful and loving in all relationships,
-
learning to care for the playing field, club room, camp site, the environment.
