Sports Services
Physical activity increases the well-being and vitality of Sotkamo residents. The Finnish ‘Act on the Promotion of Sports and Physical Activity’ in cooperation with the municipal strategy and well-being plan of Sotkamo provide diverse opportunities for physical activity at different stages of life.
Sotkamo Sport Services support the health and well-being of the residents by providing sports facilities and organizing sports for a wide variety of target groups. In addition to the Sport Services, also the Youth Work Services and Adult Education Centre offer instructed exercise groups in Sotkamo municipality.
Exercise groups are offered to children and young people, people of working age, and seniors. In addition, the sports services organize adapted physical education for those who have difficulties in attending general sports groups due to a medical condition, disability, decline in performance, or social situation.
