Germans thoroughly enjoy sports and keeping fit, which is reflected in the number of sports clubs, Vereine, in Düsseldorf. Clubs are available for all manner of sports including water sports, riding, tennis, soccer, gymnastics and many more. All have to be registered.

Expats wishing to take up sports with others, can find a sport art for virtually all healthy-minded people. The Stadtsportbund Düsseldorf lists them all. Search by selecting Vereine, the area and then chosen sport, Sportart, to reveal a list  of relevant clubs.
