The Défi sportif AlterGo

Unique throughout the world, the Défi sportif AlterGo is the largest annual multisport event in Canada. It is the only international sport event to bring together elite and next generation athletes with all types of functional limitations for the past 37 years. In 2020, more than 8,000 athletes from 20 countries are expected from April 24 to May 3 for 10 days of competition. More than 15 sports will be presented on 9 sites in Montreal, on the South Shore and in Laval.

Visitors are welcome to attend free competitions on all our sites. In addition, they can try out adapted sports and participate in several activities in the entertainment area of the Complexe sportif Claude-Robillard .

Thousands of young athletes with functional limitations, representing over 100 schools and rehabilitation centres across Québec, will cross the start line at the 37th Défi sportif AlterGo.

For these young athletes with functional limitations, it is a unique opportunity to participate in such high-level competitions.

These young athletes have trained hard all year long and will show their savoir-faire, passion and determination to go beyond their limits!

Competitive sports

Youth is inspired by elite athletes. Their performance motivates them to continue and make their dreams come true. Over the years, Défi sportif AlterGo has earned an international reputation for the planning of high-profile competitions in universally accessible sites.

In 2020, Défi sportif AlterGo will host more than 20 countries for exceptional competitions, many of which are sanctioned by international federations. This is an opportunity for athletes to accumulate points on the international circuit.

The 37th edition of Défi sportif AlterGo will also host competitions organized in collaboration with Special Olympics Québec. These events allow Québec and Ontario clubs to meet and prepare for world championships.

Sports development is important to us. Défi sportif AlterGo strives to get young athletes with functional limitations to compete with local clubs in federated competitions. We are proud to work with Québec sports federations to organize a number of competitions in 2020.
