Gymnastics
At 9 AM, Copper heads an aerobics session that four villagers participate in, mimicking his actions. The player also can participate, using the C Stick to control the motions. Occasionally, villagers will lose their place and start to panic. The event ends at 11 AM.

Foot Race
The foot race is an event that begins right after the aerobics session, running for two hours. Four villagers will participate, while a fifth villager acts as the starter. There is a race for each gender, each involving running around the Wishing Well five times. The winner and loser of each race will both show emotions after the race is over. The non-participating villagers will be on the sidelines cheering. While racing, villagers will frequently trip over, much to their embarrassment. The player can also participate, using the B button to run.

Ball Toss
The ball toss is the third event in the sports fair, starting at 1 PM and ending at 3 PM, two hours later. Two teams of two villagers will repeatedly throw balls into a net, while another villager will cheer on both teams. Many of the villagers are confused by this sport, while others will find it pointless.

Tug-o-War
The final event in the sports fair is the tug-o-war, which goes for two hours starting at 3 PM. Two teams of two pull a long rope across a red line, while a fifth villager waves a red flag enthusiastically at them.
