About six Congolese people over ten affirm to practice a sport, according to an online survey conducted by Target SARL, a market research agency based in the DR Congo capital that is specializing in researches entirely performed on the Internet.

In terms of the most practiced sport activities, we have got health walking (28%), soccer (24%), and gymnastics (17%). Othermentioned “sports”such as jumping the rope, marathon, cycle racing, boxing or NZANGO (similar to scissors jumps; a sport of Congolese origin practiced between two groups of women that are making scissors jumping) all received scores varying between 1 and 5%.

Soccer and gymnastics are especially practiced by young people of 25 to 34 years old, while seniors (50 years old and above) are the most inclined to making gymnastics (40%).

Women are great many to practice walking (29%), while men are very keen of soccer (29%).
