The 10th All-Africa Games (Template:Langx), also known as Maputo 2010, took place between September 3–18, 2011 in Maputo, Mozambique.[1][2] Maputo's hosting marked the third time the Games was held in the southern part of the continent.
Host awarding
In April 2005, Lusaka, Zambia was named the host of the 10th Games by the Supreme Council for Sport in Africa at a meeting in Algeria.[3] In 2004, Ghana had indicated an interest in hosting the Games,[4] but reportedly withdrew its bid.
In December 2008, the Zambian government withdrew its offer to host the 2011 Games, due to a lack of funds.[5][6][7]
In April 2009, Mozambique stepped in to take on hosting duties.[8][9][6][7]

Venues and infrastructure
When Mozambique initially announced its ability to host the 10th Games, there was a possibility of a paring down of the sports to be offered, due to time constraints and a potential lack of facilities for the Games (e.g. the country has no field hockey field capable of hosting a Games-level competition).[8] However, the Games eventually featured 20 sports, down 4 from the 24 hosted at the 2007 All-Africa Games.
