Welcome
For over 20 years the World Transplant Games Federation has been staging international sporting events for transplant athletes in order to demonstrate the physical success of transplant surgery and to raise awareness of the need to increase organ donation.
The Summer World Transplant Games take place every two years where over 1500 athletes representing some 69 countries compete at an extraordinarily high level. Many however just come to enjoy taking part at their own pace and welcome the opportunity to meet with other transplant recipients in an atmosphere of fun and friendship.
In 2009 the 17th World Transplant Games will be set on the Gold Coast, Australia, 22 - 30 August.
The Winter World Transplant Games take place in the intervening years – in 2008 the Games took place in Rovaniemi, Finland from 25th to 30th March and included the Nicholas Cup for children.
The children with their Nicholas Cup medals pose with Santa and friends at the end of the Nicholas Cup competition on Saturday 29th March 2008.
