Asuncion - Post Report Question and Answers

Are local sports classes and/or activities available for kids?

This is an area that Asuncion really excels at. You can find quality activities and instructions for you and your children. I know embassy families have their children participate in horseback riding, rugby, soccer, swimming, gymnastics, dance, music, and more. Golf lessons are popular with adults. - Aug 2022

Soccer, golf, and tennis. But you HAVE to speak Spanish fluently. My Spanish teacher speaks about 30 words of English. And she's the most fluent English speaker among the 15 or so people we had to choose from. How do these people expect to teach beginning and mid level English speakers Spanish if they don't speak a lick of english? que suerte! pasa bien! - Jun 2011


Lots of soccer, tennis, and golf. Take your pick of the place -- however, note that Paraguayans are known for their great soccer, so the kids are uber competitive about soccer -- that said, there are lots of soccer schools, great golf courses with cheap instructors, lots and lots of tennis. They love sports here! - Feb 2011


Through school, yes. - Apr 2010
