About the exchange
We are marking 70 years of Inverness being twinned with Augsburg in Germany. As part of the celebrations, we are running a sports exchange with the Bavarian Sport Youth.
A group of 10 young people from Bavaria will visit Inverness from 30 May to 6 June 2026. They will learn about community sport in the Highlands and meet local clubs.
We will then take a group of 10 people from Inverness to Augsburg from 20 to 27 June 2026. The visit will focus on:
- how sport is delivered in Bavaria
- cultural exchange
- sharing ideas and good practice
- building links between sports clubs
