President Ilham Aliyev: The training of young athletes should be done in an organized manner
Baku, January 9, AZERTAC
“The development of sport in Azerbaijan is consistent. Many of our athletes who participated in the Baku Games five years ago did not participate in the Islamic Solidarity Games in Konya. Generations change, but our success remains constant,” said President Ilham Aliyev as he addressed a ceremony dedicated to sporting results of 2022.
“Here too we are seeing growth and success. As generations replace each other, the experience of our outstanding athletes seems to be handed over to younger athletes. Young athletes growing up in Azerbaijan will keep our sporting fame high, and this should be a constant process,” the head of state noted.
“The training of young athletes should be done in an organized manner. In this field, we have been observing more focused work recently, especially in terms of selection. Numerous events held in the regions will create greater opportunities for both selection work and for the attraction of young people, children and teenagers to sport clubs,” President Ilham Aliyev emphasized.
