Athletes from Nepal, India, Pakistan, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Maldives and Sri Lanka participate in this Sports event. South Asian Games include 27 types of sports like Football, Cricket, Basketball, Volleyball, Archery, Golf, Handball and others. Some people even consider the SAG to be a South Asian version of the Olympics game.
This year, Nepal is hosting the South Asian Games happening from 27th November 2019 at Kathmandu, Pokhara and Janakpur. Nepal was the first country to host SAG back in 1984, and again hosted the event in 1999.
