President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin presents the “Pushkin” Medal to Leyla Aliyeva
Inauguration of the open-air sports ground built in the Seaside National Park’s new boulevard section, following the initiative of Leyla Aliyeva, the vice-president of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation and founder and head of IDEA Public Association, took place on the occasion of the March 5th - the Day of Physical Training and Sport.
Leyla Aliyeva attended the inauguration ceremony.
Leyla Aliyeva and attendees of the ceremony became familiarized with the conditions created on the sports ground.
This sports ground is the first one built in the framework of the project “Street Workout”, jointly implemented by IDEA Public Association and “CAVAN” Youth Movement. Taking into account the special standards of the Street Workout, all conditions have been created on this ground to ensure that sportsmen and those with restricted physical abilities could easily engage in trainings here.
Olympic, world and European champions of Azerbaijan, as well as the city public highly appreciated this initiative, thanking Leyla Aliyeva on behalf of all sportsmen.
The basic idea of the project was to support the sports policy being pursued in our country, by promoting a healthy lifestyle.
Intended to serve residents and guests of our city in the Seaside Park - a pearl of our capital - this sports ground will contribute to increasing the mass character of the sports type Street Workout, which is becoming more and more popular and developing rapidly all over the world.
It is expected that such sports grounds will be created in other places of the country in future.
