# 2022 Sukma Games

The 2022 Sukma Games (Malay: Sukan Malaysia 2022), officially known as the 20th Sukma Games (Malay: Sukan Malaysia ke-20) and commonly known as MSN 2022, was a multi-sport event that was held in Kuala Lumpur from 16 September until 24 September 2022. Though some events, such as the football, cricket and cycling event, started earlier. The Games were originally scheduled to be held in Johor in July 2020. However, they were postponed until 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with the National Sports Council (NSC) replacing Johor as host.
