Abstract

Sports competitions represent not only a form of physical expression and performance but also a field of intense intercultural interaction. When athletes, officials, and fans from different countries come together, a complex panorama of cultural exchange emerges. Sports competitions highlight not only athletic performance and competition but also facilitate dialogue and understanding among the cultures of the participating countries. Teams from regional/territorial or participating countries in competitions bring together athletes from diverse cultural backgrounds, making the management of cultural differences crucial for effective communication during games, training, and competitions. By supporting and encouraging dialogue and respect among athletes /nations/cultures, competitions become bridges between cultures, nations, and races. Interethnic Education is crucial as it fosters discourse among pupils hailing from various nations, ethnicities, and faiths, thereby enriching sustainable and inclusive communities.
