Abstract

The study deals with programs for intercultural education via sport. It is important to define criteria for success and to analyze conditions for successful realization in intercultural learning.

The school programs like "Round the world in one week/ month" can arrange knowledge about other cultures in an acting form. In this way we can widen the horizon concerning geography, history, general culture, sports and other knowledge.

In sport lessons specific movement-culture - traditional games, sports and dances can be introduced. Sport is able to integrate foreigners and foreignness, teaching tolerance and cooperation, helping to create conditions for the education of culture-competent citizens.
