I.Metshin on the development of sports infrastructure

Our goal is to provide every remote area of the city with affordable sports venues. It does not matter if it is a village, Salavat Kupere microdistrict or Yudino residential area.

Sports facilities are as important as the development of territories, construction of schools and kindergartens, health facilities. This contributes to the development of children and teenagers, as well as promoting a healthy lifestyle for all Kazan residents without exception: young and professional athletes, and the elderly population.

We strive to increase the number of Kazan residents who practice sport and lead a healthy lifestyle. This is one of our main tasks and priorities. We are systematically working to ensure that this number increases annually.

The city will continue to develop its sports infrastructure. Today, the capital of Tatarstan has 12 ski bases, 8 ski trails, 18 ice rinks, 78 outdoor hockey rinks, 10 ice arenas, and 3,000 pairs of skates are available for rent. During the New Year holidays, a large number of families visited parks and squares, as well as sports venues. Presently, public spaces are entering into a new stage of development. We will continue to create the conditions for this. It would be impossible to achieve such results without development and a systematic approach.
