This Sunday, June 21, 2026, the Rwanda National Olympic and Sports Committee (RNOSC), in collaboration with the Rwanda Aquatics Federation, celebrated Olympic Day 2026 under the theme "You Can Do This. Let's Move" at Green Hills Academy through a swimming competition.

The event, officiated by the Rwanda Aquatics Federation, brought together 127 athletes from five clubs, who competed across 54 categories in a vibrant celebration of sport, physical activity, and Olympic values.

As part of the day's activities, RNOSC Executive Director Jean Claude Rugigana and Valentine Munezero, a former participant in the Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Olympic Games, delivered an Olympic Values Education Programme (OVEP) session to the young athletes. During the session, Mr. Rugigana presented the background of the Olympic Movement and highlighted the core Olympic values of Excellence, Friendship, and Respect.

Addressing the participants, Valentine Munezero encouraged the youth to pursue their dreams with determination, saying:

"To the youth that wants to participate in the Olympic Games, I'd like to tell you that victory is not just about winning medals, but making your mark on history, as well as representing your country and its reputation. To achieve this, you need to implement the Olympic Values."

Speaking during the closing ceremony, RNOSC President Alice Umulinga expressed her gratitude to the participating federations, including the Rwanda Athletics Federation, Rwanda Taekwondo Federation, FERWACY, and the Rwanda Kung Fu Wushu Federation, for their continued support in promoting Olympic Day celebrations and youth participation in sport.

She further encouraged the young athletes, stating:

"In addition to the Olympic Values presented today, after seeing your courage, I'd like to tell the participating youth that, as the theme says, 'You Can Do This.' and keep it up."

As the competitions came to a close, participants observed a moment of silence in honor of the late Fidele Kajugiro Sebalinda, an RNOSC staff member who departed this life recently.
