Our story
Twelve years after the first edition, the Paris World Games have become the meeting point for teams and players who come back every summer to see their friends from all over the world.
The origins
The dream of two brothers
The Paris World Games began as a project of enthusiasts who had volunteered on soccer fields for many seasons at the Pitray Olier Paris club. Every year, Christophe and François Claret de Fleurieu took part in the biggest youth soccer tournament in the world, the Gothia Cup in Sweden.
Alongside their studies, they also organized the PO Paris tournament, recognized for its sporting and organizational excellence.
The Paris World Games combine the experience of the great world sports games with the irresistible appeal of Paris for young people from all over the world. Developed at the HEC Paris Incubator, the tournament held its first edition in 2015.
