Sports
The Mediterranean Games Sports Programme
The Games Programme is not set based on a fixed format: the list of sports included in any given edition is set by the International Committee of Mediterranean Games, upon proposal of the Technical Commission.
Therefore, the sports programme for each edition has been subject to change throughout the Games history: from only 14 in 1951 (Alexandria, Egypt) to 27 in 2005 (Almerìa) and 2009 (Pescara).
Test events
In the year prior to the XX Mediterranean Games, Taranto will host highly-technical sports events at international level, so as to test the venues and the operations, as well as promote the communications on Mediterranean Games.
