Foreword

The production of Curaçao Sports & Movement Guide is the 13th volume from a series of guides published by the Fundashon Guia di Deporte (Sports Guide Foundation).

History​

It all started with a thousand separate pieces of information that was sports related, which turned into a need in having all these different pieces of information documented and readily avaible at a single glance.

This has shed a new light on other informational guides, such as:

  • Nos Grandinan den Deporte (Our Local Sports Heroes),
  • The history of the Olympic Games and it’s evolvement throughout the years and the participation of the Country Curaçao in the Olympics of 1952.

Our goal is to not only provide information to local and international sports organizations, but also to visitors from abroad who are into sports and healthful recreation and want to know more details about the sporting and recreational conveniences and facilities our island has to offer. And who knows.... they might even bump into an old sports friend on the list.

Thanks​

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all the sports and activity related
organizations and their board members in Curaçao who’ve contributed in accomplishing our vision.

They have responded to our request in making not only the local community, but also visitors from all over the world, aware of the sports and activities to them during their sunny and healthful stay on our Dushi Curaçao.

Special thanks to

  • Dessima Douglas
  • Hans van der Straaten
  • Emory Mercera

for their kindly assist.
