Meet the ALGSO Family at Journée Cancer 2026: A Day of Hope, Community & Movement

On 4 February 2026, something truly special is happening at Centre Hospitalier du Nord (CHdN), and we’d absolutely love to see you there!
ALGSO will be hosting an information stand during the Journée Cancer CHdN, running from 10:00 to 15:00.
This is more than just another event. It’s an opportunity to connect with the heart of our community and discover how movement, connection, and compassion can transform your cancer journey.
The Journée Cancer 2026 represents a pivotal moment for cancer awareness across Luxembourg.
As the country’s very first oncology sports association, ALGSO is honoured to play a key role in this important day.
Our dedicated team (including Bea, Arlette, Monika, Francine, Georgette, and Jérôme) will be there in person, ready to share our story, answer your questions, and welcome you with open arms into what we lovingly call the ALGSO Family.

Why Your Presence Matters: Understanding the Power of Community

Cancer doesn’t discriminate, and neither does our mission.
Whether you’re currently undergoing treatment, celebrating remission, or supporting a loved one through their journey, our ALGSO family offers a safe, judgement-free space where everyone’s experience is valued. Our team understands what you’re going through, because many of us have walked that path ourselves.
That’s what makes ALGSO different.
Attending the Journée Cancer CHdN gives you a chance to learn firsthand why movement matters during cancer recovery. Scientific evidence consistently demonstrates that adapted physical activity reduces fatigue, improves strength and mobility, and enhances overall quality of life. But beyond the science, our community members can share something equally powerful: personal stories of resilience, transformation, and hope. More than simple testimonials, these are invitations to imagine what’s possible when you move together with others who truly get it.
This event is an excellent opportunity to explore the diverse range of classes and activities ALGSO offers. From gentle yoga and swimming to group fitness and beyond, there’s genuinely something for everyone, regardless of age, fitness level, or experience.
Your journey is unique, and so is your path forward with us.

What to Expect: Connections, Information & Warm Welcomes

When you visit our stand at the Journée Cancer 2026, you can expect genuine warmth and authentic engagement, ALGSO style.
Our team won’t simply hand you brochures and send you on your way. That’s not how we do things…instead, they’ll take time to listen to your story, understand your needs, and show you how ALGSO might become part of your healing journey.
Whether you’re curious about our classes, interested in our community events like Relais pour la Vie, or simply seeking connection with others who understand, we’re here for it all.
Attending the Journée Cancer CHdN, also means learning about the broader cancer awareness initiatives happening throughout Luxembourg. As part of a larger healthcare conversation, ALGSO proudly contributes to changing how society views cancer recovery: not as an ending, but as a beginning.
Together, we’re proving that life after cancer can be vibrant, active, and full of possibility.
In essence, marking your calendar for 4 February isn’t just about attending an event. It’s about taking the first step toward joining a lifelong community.
After all, at ALGSO, we don’t just move together and heal together; we grow together, celebrate together, and support one another through every season of life.

See you on 4 February at CHdN?
We can’t wait to meet you! 💙

Goals Kick Off for Good: The Futsal Tournament That Scores Big for ALGSO
2026-03-08 11:00 - 17:30 | Tournoi Futsal Differdange-Fousbann, 2, Pl. des Alliés, Oberkorn, 4508, Luxembourg
You know that feeling when something amazing comes together?
When passion, community, and a little friendly competition combine to create pure magic?
Well, that’s exactly what’s happening on 8 March with the Tournoi Futsal Differdange-Fousbann!
And guess what?
ALGSO is right in the middle of the action.
Let us tell you why you should be excited about this one.

A Powerhouse Partnership on the Pitch

First things first: this tournament isn’t just any sporting event.
A dedicated group of students from LTAM is organising the Tournoi Futsal Differdange-Fousbann specifically to benefit ALGSO, and honestly, that’s the kind of support that reminds us why community matters so much.
These young athletes understand something crucial: that movement heals, that sport empowers, and that coming together for a cause creates real impact.
Here’s what makes this event special: ALGSO won’t just be cheering from the sidelines.
We’re bringing our energy, our spirit, and our team to the court. We’re putting together a squad of five to seven players who will represent the ALGSO family and show everyone what resilience looks like.
Meanwhile, we’ll also be running a stand where you can meet the community, learn more about what we do, and feel the warmth that makes ALGSO, well… ALGSO!
This is community in action: people moving together and healing together, one goal at a time.

Why This Event Matters to Us

Here’s a wee reminder for the more competitive team-mates amongst us: sport isn’t just about winning matches or scoring points.
For us here at ALGSO, the Tournoi Futsal Differdange-Fousbann represents something deeper:
It’s a celebration of what our bodies can do, a reminder that life after cancer (or during it) doesn’t mean sitting on the sidelines.
Moreover, it’s an incredible opportunity to shine a spotlight on our mission and reach people who might not yet know about the transformative power of adapted sports.
Events like this break down barriers.
Futsal is fast, energetic, and inclusive. It doesn’t require you to be a professional athlete. It welcomes everyone from all backgrounds and fitness levels.
That’s the ALGSO spirit right there. Whether you’re a cancer survivor, someone currently undergoing treatment, or simply someone who wants to support an incredible cause, this tournament is your moment to connect, celebrate, and be part of something bigger than yourself.

The Impact of Your Participation

When you run or walk with ALGSO at the Relais pour la Vie Luxembourg, you’re doing far more than completing kilometres. You’re supporting evidence-based sports programmes that genuinely transform lives during and after cancer treatment.
Scientific research consistently shows that physical activity reduces fatigue, improves recovery, enhances mental health, and boosts overall quality of life for cancer patients. Your participation directly funds the professional coaching, adapted classes, and community support that make this possible.
Moreover, every person who joins our team becomes part of the ALGSO family.
This isn’t transactional, you’re not just a member or a donor.
You’re joining lifelong friends who understand your journey because they’ve walked similar paths.
You’ll find people at different stages: some still fighting, some celebrating remission, some honouring loved ones they’ve lost.
That shared understanding creates a bond that’s truly irreplaceable.
Last year, Team ALGSO brought incredible energy to the Coque. From emotional solidarity to joyful costume laps at 4am. The bonds formed, the tears shared, and the laughter echoed long after the final lap. You can read all about it in our detailed recap article.
This year, we’re back… and we want YOU with us.

Lace Up and Join the Movement: The Journée de Randonnée CMCM
2026-05-05 00:00 - 23:59
Step Into Spring: Discovering the Journée de Randonnée CMCM

Mark your calendars because something truly special is happening on Sunday, May 3, 2026!
The inaugural Journée de Randonnée CMCM is coming to the beautiful Baggerweieren in Remerschen, and frankly, we couldn’t be more excited.
Yet another walking event?
We think not! This promises to be a celebration of community, movement, and the incredible power of coming together.
As ALGSO’s mission revolves around cancer awareness and the transformative benefits of sports and cancer recovery, this event perfectly embodies everything we stand for.
This first-ever edition represents a milestone collaboration between the CMCM, the Fédération Luxembourgeoise de Marche Populaire (FLMP), and Erliefnis Baggerweier asbl. Together, they’re creating a day dedicated to health, movement, and genuine human connection. With the energizing slogan “Lace up your shoes and forget the stress!” ringing in the air, they anticipate over 1,000 participants joining in for what promises to be an unforgettable Sunday.
Whether you’re a cancer survivor, in remission, or simply someone who believes in the healing power of movement, this event welcomes you with open arms.

Three Routes, One Heart: Finding Your Perfect Path

The beauty of the Journée de Randonnée CMCM lies in its inclusivity.
Consequently, they’ve designed three distinct routes to accommodate everyone, regardless of fitness level or experience.

What does this mean for our ALGSO family?
This approach ensures that cancer survivors at various stages of their recovery journey can participate meaningfully and safely. After all, part of what makes ALGSO special is our commitment to meeting people exactly where they are.

The 5 km route features a dedicated children’s circuit complete with fun animations, making it perfect for families who want to introduce their little ones to active, joyful movement.
Next, the 8 km trail offers a moderate challenge for those seeking a steady, rewarding walk through Luxembourg’s stunning natural landscape.
Finally, the semi-marathon option caters to our more ambitious participants, those pushing their physical boundaries and proving daily that they’re stronger than they ever imagined.

Moreover, each route winds through the picturesque Baggerweieren, offering breathtaking views and that essential connection to nature that fuels both body and soul.

Beyond the Trail: The ALGSO Experience

Here’s what sets this event apart from your typical charity walk: it’s genuinely about building community.
Throughout the event, we’re promised multiple opportunities for connection and engagement.
You’ll discover information stands positioned both along the routes and at the finish village, where you can chat with ALGSO coaches and fellow members who understand cancer’s unique challenges. Furthermore, participants will receive exciting gadgets and small gifts: little tokens of appreciation that remind us we’re all part of something bigger.
For families with children, the children’s 5 km circuit includes creative workshops, games, and interactive animations designed to make movement fun and accessible for younger participants.
ALGSO members and supporters will have ample opportunities to showcase what sports and cancer recovery truly means in Luxembourg. This gathering represents far more than physical activity; it’s a celebration of resilience, hope, and the life-changing impact of finding your ALGSO family. Because ultimately, the real magic happens when survivors discover they’re not alone and that everyone around them understands the journey and genuinely cares.
