The event is happening today at the Hakim Optical Parking Lot at 21 Weber Street from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Nancy Hall-Jupp, with Leisure & Active Living Programs, for the City of Waterloo says its a great way to showcase multiple different sports.
“I think it’s extremely important to showcase all the sports we have here. We definitely are trying to expand into other sports as more people move into our community, so that everybody can find something that they enjoy.”
In honour of its sixth year and to celebrate the Year of Sport, ParticipACTION and True Sport released the Top 15 Moments in Canadian Sport for 2015.
