Oh, sport, are you alive?

"Oh, sport, you are life!"

We all observed in the media how we mocked our Olympic and Paralympic athletes officials of the International Olympic Committee. Everyone at the state level was indignant and condemned their actions. Now, please project the situation to the regional level, what happens to children's sports in Mari El?

On March 18, 2017, in the area of ​​the village of Senkino (Medvedevsky district), the XLI championship of the Republic of Mari El was held among students in sports orientation. And also the championship and championship of the Republic of Mari El, republican competitions among middle and older athletes in sports orientation orientation.

On March 19, 2017, in the area of ​​the village of Yurkino, Medvedevsky district , IV Republican competitions of students in sports orientation on Senkinsky Azimut skiing were held, dedicated to the memory of master of sports in Ski, V.P.

Competitions took place contrary to the desires of officials. The main transport, with which the participants got to the start, are students of the parents of students. Many got on foot, as expected: http://7x7-journal.ru/post/92290 . The participants from Chuvashia were able to come, and not everyone came from Mari El.

Each head of the region will be proud of their athletes - winners who protect the honor of the region at all -Russian competitions. This is one of the components of the image of the region, for this you need to work and support it not only in words, but also in practice:

But one cannot achieve high results with one parting words. We need constant training in the most close to the conditions of the competition. In addition, there are difficulties with traveling to the competition, which leads to a decrease in the qualifications of athletes, and then can lead to a decrease in the popularity of sports among students. When competitions are held in the Republic of Mari El, we see on what buses guests from Chuvashia, Komi, Tatarstan, Kirov Region, Perm Territory and other regions come to us - these are new comfortable buses. And we do not have the opportunity to fully conduct even training with traveling to the forest. What support of mass sports can be discussed in this situation. Many in the comments will exclaim, they say, "There is no money, but you hold on!" We hold on, everything will be fine with us, but the officials responsible for making decisions may have problems. If we take the Constitution of the Russian Federation as a basis, as well as Article 8 of the Law “On Education”, the authority of state authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in the field of education include “8) the organization of additional education of children in state educational organizations of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation”. But the authorities went on a different path - it is easier for them to close sports schools, she forgot what comes of this - the children are on the street. The crime will quickly take the trained personnel and raises them in the direction that is necessary for them.
