International sports organization From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The CSIT – International Workers and Amateurs in Sports Confederation (also known as International Labor and Amateur Sports Confederation) (French: CSIT - Confédération Sportive Internationale Travailliste et Amateur, CSIT) is an international multi-sports organization. It was established as the successor to the Socialist Workers' Sport International and, as such, celebrated its centenary in 2013. The core principles of contributing to physical activity and sports have stayed in its action policy; upholding the right of men and women to do sports no matter what their professionalism levels are. The key concept of CSIT's sports policy has always been "Sports for all." The policy stems from the historical ideas of the international worker sport movement.

The 7th edition of CSIT World Sports Games was to be held in Cervia, Italy. The games in 2021 were cancelled due to the safety reasons because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The CSIT World Sports Games are the successor to the International Workers' Olympiads.
