Year 15 (2009) » Festivel sports
Come and enjoy yourself! The ever-popular Sports Afternoon was presented again as a part of last year’s Not-only-lesbian Cultural Festival eLnadruhou.
The event took place in the Na Františku Leisure Centre, Praha 1, Prague, Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 May 2009. The attendants were able to try their hand (or, indeed, any other body part) at volleyball, soccer, basketball, table tennis, miniature golf, technical rock-climbing, running, and long-jumping, having got free use of a locker room and bathroom (and there was also a shop selling inexpensive ice-cream and snacks). Please bring only such footwear as not to damage the artificial surface of the playing field.
Children's playground available too.
