The World Police & Fire Games are coming to New York City August 26 through September 5, 2011 for ten days of sports competition and specially planned events, which will respectfully coincide with the ten year remembrance of September 11, 2001. Spread throughout the five Boroughs, the city that never sleeps will be the setting for the world’s largest multi-sport, Olympic style event. As many as 20,000 full time firefighters and law enforcement personnel from 70 different countries are expected to compete in 65 sports.
The organizers of this monumental undertaking will discuss what goes into the planning and coordination of the games, securing corporate sponsorship and media coverage for the games and will also answer your questions about what will be one of the premier sporting events ever to be hosted by the City.
