Birmingham will be host to the 2021 World Games.

A total of 3,600 athletes from across the globe will participate in more than 34 sports including five types of gymnastics, lacrosse, tug of war and inline hockey. Other events are less familiar like canoe polo and korf ball.

The world games will last ten days and are planned for July, 2021. Both fans and athletes in town are already excited for the event still six years away.
