Workers' Sports Movement

The Workers' Sports Movement was a social and political effort in the early 20th century aimed at promoting physical activity and sports among working-class people. It sought to unify workers through organized sports activities, fostering solidarity, health, and a sense of community. Often associated with broader labor movements and political ideals, this movement used sports as a means to empower workers, oppose oppressive regimes, and advocate for social change. It played a significant role in countries like China and the Soviet Union, where it also served as a tool for promoting ideological values and mobilizing workers.
