“Moscow creates all the conditions for children to lead a healthy lifestyle and try themselves in various sports. Today, the capital has almost 30 thousand sports sections for schoolchildren – from football and chess to biathlon and motorsport. In order to inspire children to achieve and show how diverse and interesting such activities can be, since 2023 we have been holding the School Sports Festival. Each time it gathers more and more participants – this year it will be visited by more than 25 thousand people. This time, participants and guests can expect inspiring master classes, games and training. For example, demonstration performances in fitness aerobics, gymnastics, eSports and BMX are planned. And at the end of the festival, famous artists will perform,” said Anastasia Rakova.

The festival will sum up the sports season in Moscow schools and colleges. Guests will be treated to competitions in football, three-on-three basketball, volleyball, tag rugby, chess, checkers, and also the GTO standards. Particular attention will be paid to family activities this year. Thus, a relay race “To the Start with the Whole Family” is planned.

In addition to sports competitions, master classes and board games will be organized. For example, gymnast Arina Averina will hold a class where she will share her professional experience and talk about unique author’s techniques. Visitors will also be able to play panna football and golf, try their hand at jumping and overcome the obstacle course “Ninja Path”.

For guests over 14 years old, a sports reality show “Young Titans” was prepared, organized jointly with one of the federal channels. Dmitry Yashankin, a participant of the second season of the show “Titans”, will act as a mentor for the children.

The School Sports Festival is one of the main events for young athletes in the capital. Last year, it was visited by more than 20,000 people. At the opening of the school sports season in September, Muscovites set two records. The first ever and at the same time the largest parade of school and student sports clubs in Russia took place in the Luzhniki Olympic Complex, in which about five thousand people took part. The most massive was also the dance flash mob to live music, which was joined by more than 1,200 Muscovites.

Holding sports events for students in the capital contributes to the development of children’s talents and the formation of skills that will be useful to them in their future profession, and corresponds to the objectives of the “Professionalism” project of the national project “Youth and Children”.
