The city of Ternitz traditionally honors young athletes shortly before Christmas. The community hall was the festive atmosphere. “For 52 years, professional coaches and educators have been enabling children and young people to try and play a wide range of sports according to their own interests. Everything is possible, from amateur sports to competitive sports,” says Monica Moser, who runs the community-funded youth sports organisation. “.
The sports of athletics, artistic gymnastics, tennis and swimming are represented in the youth sports section. “Ternitz can strengthen its reputation as a sports city through the commitment of all those involved in youth sports,” says SPÖ Mayor Robert Durak.
