The Ministry of Popular Power for Sports (MPPD), launched the national contest “Draw and Create Our Mascot” for the XX National Student Sports Games 2026.

As of April 29, the official call to choose the character who will represent the spirit of the twentieth edition of the National Student Sports Games (JUDENAES) 2026 is open.

This event, jointly promoted by the Ministries of Sports and Education, is aimed exclusively at the active student population of the entire country, with the objective of involving young people in the visual identity of the highest school sporting event.

The rules of the competition state that proposals must be based on three pillars: ingenuity, originality and the reflection of national identity.

Students interested in participating should consider the following requirements:.

Nature of the character: The mascot must be an animal or a made-up character.

Values to transmit: The design must capture the companionship, discipline and effort of the athletes who will give life to the 20th edition of the Judenaes.

Delivery format: The design can be done by hand or digitally.

Each proposal must include the name of the character and a brief description that explains their origin and the elements that represent the spirit of jousting.

The organizing committee of the Judenaes will be responsible for evaluating each work under strict parameters of creativity and compliance with established rules. The author of the winning mascot will not only see his creation in all the promotional material for the school joust, but he will also receive direct incentives:

Complete sports equipment for the educational institution where you are studying. The official jacket of the National Student Sports Games.

How to participate? Designs must be sent in JPG, PNG or vector format to the email: [email protected].

The application process ends on June 1st. With this initiative, the Bolivarian Government seeks that the mascot of the Judenaes 2026 is born from the talent and vision of the Venezuelan students themselves.
