The North American Indigenous Games is a multi-sport event and cultural celebration involving Indigenous athletes from across North America staged intermittently since 1990. The dream to hold a “Games for the Indigenous Peoples” of North America began in the 1970s. The first edition of the Games was held in Edmonton, Alberta in 1990. The NAIG Council was formed between 1992 and 1993, a 26member council of representatives from 13 provinces and territories in Canada and 13 regions in the United States. The vision was to improve the quality of life for Indigenous Peoples by supporting self-determined sports and cultural activities which encourage equal access to participation in the social / cultural / spiritual fabric of the community in which they reside, and which respects Indigenous distinctiveness.
