Niamey - Post Report Question and Answers

Are local sports classes and/or activities available for kids?

Some through the rec center. Swimming and softball were popular - Oct 2017


Softball teams are formed for semi-annual tournaments where any age can participate age 12 and up. Other than that, your child will be the kid returning home and gets in the way while at bat when his teammate steals from third because he doesn't know not to block the base line. You aren't driving your kids to a bunch of practices/games when they should be doing homework so that's beneficial for the family. Bring your own basketball hoop or play at the rec center; there is a pool there to do laps so start your own swim team. Most activities are led by the person happening to live there at the time. There are aerobics classes at a local hotel. - Aug 2015


There is a soccer game on every corner, every day, all day. - Jul 2013
