About 1,200 teenagers are converging in Milwaukee for the inaugural U.S. Indigenous Games.

The opening ceremonies for the games will be held on Sunday. Competition is 16 sports will then be staged the following four days, July 11-14. Participants, ranging in age from 13-19, will be representing 14 states.

Milwaukee had originally been scheduled to host this year’s North American Indigenous Games (NAIG). But last May the host society withdrew its bid to host these 10-day games, which are usually held every three years and feature athletes from the U.S. and Canada.

Since another host could not be found in time, this year’s NAIG was cancelled last summer.
