ANOC

IntroductionThe Association of National Olympic Committees (ANOC) was established in June 1979 during the Constitutive General Assembly in San Juan, Puerto Rico. ANOC now represents the interests of 206 National Olympic Committees (NOCs) across the five Olympic continents. ANOC is administered from its headquarters in the Olympic Capital, Lausanne, where it has been based since June 2010.

ANOC President Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad Al-Sabah was elected in April 2012. His stated objective was – and remains – to reform, modernise and

professionalise the organisation in order to better serve the needs of the world’s NOCs.

Under Sheikh Ahmad’s leadership, ANOC strives to protect and promote the collective interests of the NOCs, delivering consistent, dedicated support and advocating on their behalf within the Olympic Family. ANOC also aims to strengthen the relationships between the NOCs and the Olympic Family for the benefit of the entire Olympic Movement.

The ANOC World Beach Games in San DiegoThe ANOC World Beach Games were conceived by ANOC President Sheikh Ahmad. In his capacity as OCA President, Sheikh Ahmad had already overseen the success of the Asian Beach Games and his vision was to develop a World Beach Games that would attract new audiences and provide a platform for NOCs to engage with millions of young people around the world.

The ANOC Events Working Group, established in December 2013 and chaired originally by the ANOC President, was tasked with developing the concept for the Games. The Working Group was supported by international experts and collaborated with the IOC, International Federations and other Olympic stakeholders to ensure the Games would

be sustainable and bring widespread benefits to the Olympic Movement. Timothy Fok is the current chair of the ANOC Events Working Group.The ANOC World Beach Games will deliver elite sport that excites: a dynamic beach, action and water sports programme featuring prominent, world-class athletes brought together in one truly global festival for the very first time. The event will be built on a new, sustainable multisports model, with 100% temporary venues operating in harmony with the world’s most captivating beach locations. .

Ultimately, the ANOC World Beach Games aims to be the pinnacle of global excellence in beach, action and water sports, connecting new disciplines and new stars to a new generation of fans.


The inaugural ANOC World Beach Games: San Diego 2019The inaugural edition of the ANOC World Beach Games will take place on Mission Beach in the city of San Diego, California, from 10-14 October 2019.At the ANOC General Assembly in Washington in 2015, San Diego was unanimously approved as the host city of the first ever edition of the ANOC World Beach Games which was set for 2017.

After extensive dialogue with NOCs and IFs, the ANOC Executive Council decided to move the inaugural edition of the Games to 2019 to ensure that NOCs and IFs had the optimum time to prepare their athletes for the event.

The ANOC World Beach Games San Diego 2019 will feature approximately 1,360 athletes from every Olympic continent. The sports programme comprises 15 fresh and dynamic sports with 17 disciplines in total:

• Triathlon – Aquathlon• Basketball – 3X3• Cycling – BMX• Sports Climbing – Bouldering• Handball – Beach Handball• Karate – Individual Kata• Sailing – Kitefoil Racing• Skateboarding – Park• Football - Beach Soccer• Surfing – Shortboard & Longboard• Swimming – Open Water 5km• Tennis – Beach Tennis• Beach Volleyball – 4x4• Waterskiing – Waterski Jump & Wakeboard• Wrestling – Beach Wrestling

The ANOC World Beach Games San Diego 2019 will take place at a single, integrated competition site at Mission Beach – located approximately 14km from downtown San Diego, on Southern California’s beautiful Pacific coast. All competition venues will be temporary, with no permanent Games footprint. NOCs and their teams will be housed in hotel accommodation approximately 8.5km from the competition site.

The Games is expected to attract approximately 40,000 fans each day, with world-class sports competition staged alongside an international music, culture and entertainment festival. The event will also be broadcast live around the world via digital and traditional broadcast channels. Participants will be able to enjoy the attractions that make San Diego one of the world’s top tourist destinations, from the stunning natural beauty of the Southern California coastline to renowned destinations like Sea World, the Gas Lamp District and San Diego Zoo.

The 2019 ANOC General Assembly will take place in San Diego immediately prior to the ANOC World Beach Games from 8-10 October.
