A charity tournament of rugby, dodgeball and belly-sliding in Versailles this weekend — CANCELLED.

A major charity rally brings together athletes and the public to unite for a good cause around traditional physical feats and quirky competitions. From rugby, dodgeball and belly-slides, watch or take part in this charity tournament, from June 26 to 28, 2026. The event has been cancelled.

Due to the heat wave, the tournament is canceled: "The forecasted conditions for the weekend do not allow us to guarantee everyone's safety—athletes, volunteers, and spectators. We had no choice but to cancel."

From June 26 to 28, 2026, Versailles will host the 7 Hearts Tournament, a charity competition that brings together athletes, associations, and volunteers to support projects for sick children, people with disabilities, and inclusion. Each team supports the colors of a different association, across three sports: rugby, dodgeball, and belly slide, at the Porchefontaine Stadium.

This is the 13th edition of the tournament, which has already raised more than €850,000. You can come to watch the competitions or to take part, depending on your level, but be sure to register in advance and raise €400 per team! On the schedule, a men's Sevens Accession circuit, an official stop on the FFR circuit, a women's and men's Open 7s, open to all rugby sevens clubs, and a rugby 5-a-side tournament, open to everyone.

As for the dodgeball, the serious take on the prisoner's ball, it will take place on June 27 at 2 p.m. A slightly less serious affair, the Ventriglisse Championships await you on June 27 at 6:30 p.m., with one goal: to slide as far as possible along a long soap-slicked track! This time, registration is free and on-site.

A range of activities will round out the program for the whole family, including inflatable attractions, a face-painting booth; a belly slide, board games, reading, archery, rugby, field hockey and Baby Rugby, all accessible to everyone. A dining area, a refreshment stand and a barbecue featuring local produce are also planned, with DJ sets on Saturday night.

To reach it by public transport, take the RER C to Porchefontaine, or ride the N line and alight at Versailles Chantiers before catching the bus.
