The Ontario Summer Indigenous Games (OSIG), developed by the Indigenous Sport & Wellness Ontario and funded by the Government of Ontario, is an important step in the sport development pathway for Indigenous youth.
From a sport perspective, the OSIG provides an opportunity for high-performance athlete development, athlete talent identification, and sport specific training and preparation for participation in the North American Indigenous Games.
The Games are also important for the celebration of Indigenous cultures and communities, as youth from distinct communities from across the province will have the opportunity to share and learn from each other and make connections that will last a lifetime.
OSIG is scheduled from July 28-31, 2022, in the City of Ottawa, on the traditional territory and homelands of the Algonquin Peoples.
