A little history – It was 1985. In Toronto, Canada, Maureen Johnston, founder of the World Masters Games, had the idea of creating the World Masters Games. The goal: a project that gives everyone the opportunity to play sports around the world, represent a team and be proud to be part of a multi-sport festival for companies and organizations of different types and sizes. The Games should not have any barriers, will be the first to be open to women and men on an equal basis, and should include participants with disabilities.
From his idea, Johnston founded Sports for Life, to make that a reality. Thus, in 1988, the first World Corporate Games were held in San Francisco (USA). A success that was repeated the following year in Concord again in the United States. Hawaii received a third edition. In 1991, Lille, in France, and in 1992, London, in England, following the path of growth worldwide, having now reached the mark of 101 cities and 38 countries.
Nelson Mandela was the patron of the first multiracial global sporting event held in South Africa in the post-apartheid era – the 1994 Corporate World Games in Johannesburg. In the history of the Corporate Games, prominent world names, such as government leaders, business and sports figures, have been sponsors of the various editions, such as Mandela, François Mitterrand and Princess Anne.
