About Us

After the success of ACES Europe during the last 20 years with the European Capital, City, Town and Community of Sport awards we start the same format worldwide with the titles of World Capital of Sport and for areas as American, African, Asian and Australian Capital, City, Community and Town of Sport.
For this new development is currently running the World Capital of Sport Federation (WCSF). The management is doing by International Sport Movement (ISM).
The allocation of these recognitions are done by WCSF, according to the principles of responsibility and ethics, being aware that sport is a factor of aggregation of the society, improvement in the quality of life, psycho-physical well-being and complete integration within social classes in the community.
