Every time when international competitions end in victory, many congratulations come to our athletes with wishes for new success. Thousands of people, relatives, friends and other citizens of our country welcomed the achievements of Turkmen athletes: winners of the Kazan–Moscow International Silk Way Rally-2023 (Russia), winners and medallists of the XXI World Belt Wrestling Championships among men and women in Astana (Kazakhstan) and of the XVII Asian Chess Championships among schoolchildren in Tashkent (Uzbekistan). And these prizes were won only for the past week. All this again testifies to the huge popularity of sports and the wide interest in it from the state and society.

In the period of the Revival of the New Era of the Powerful State, under the leadership of President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, Turkmenistan pays constant attention to the development of physical culture and sports as a means of improving people’s health. Athletes have excellent stadiums and multifunctional sports complexes, gyms, sports sections and swimming pools at their disposal, they are trained by experienced coaches and teachers. Our best athletes and mentors have been presented with high government awards and gifts. On behalf of President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, traditional ceremonies are regularly held to honour medal-winning athletes and winners who continue the best traditions of national sports, defending the honour of the Motherland at prestigious international competitions.
