Health is the basis for happiness, development, success and progress. The excellent conditions created in Turkmenistan to practice physical culture and sports have a positive effect on the development of the physically and mentally healthy younger generations.

To date, Turkmenistan develops sports as the ambassador of peace and progress. Commitment to the ambitious goals of the Olympic movement, development and promotion of high-level sports, mass physical culture, and creation of modern sports facilities serve as an important basis for the education of the physically fit generations and adherence to the principles of a healthy lifestyle in the country. In this context, the Decree on holding the international ice hockey tournament in Turkmenistan on April 15–20, 2024, and the presentation of the certificate of the International Tennis Federation to the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov will promote friendship, brotherhood, good neighbourliness, physical culture, sports and the principles of a healthy lifestyle. These measures will attract the younger generations to sports and enhance the international prestige of the country.
