Measures to popularize physical culture and sports among young people are a key link in bringing up a healthy younger generation and creating a healthy gene pool of the country. This topic is put at the forefront by the President of the country. A number of decrees and resolutions adopted in this area allowed to bring the efforts taken in this direction to a new level.

Hundreds of modern sports facilities have been built in recent years across the country. Young people feel and see this concern of the head of state and in fact, with their sporting achievements, express gratitude. Amateur competitions organized locally, in the context of mahallas, make it possible to widely attract unorganized youth to sports activities and create a wide platform for the selection activities of sports trainers in Kokand.
