The competition system of Olympiad

The program of the Hungarian School Sport Federation offers competitions for six age groups (elementary and secondary school children) within 15 sports. The events start at areas/districts/zones of towns, then qualifiers and national semi-final follows this. The last phase is the finals. Generally 200-300 children participate in these programmes. Altogether about 30-40 thousand children are involved and professional organizations and clubs support young athletes to participate in these sport events.

Systems of competitions and levels

  • Urban/regional championships (I.-VI. age groups)
  • County/Budapest finals (II.-VI. age groups)
