A new level

This Friday, Ust – Kamenogorsk will host a presentation of the main event in the life of athletics of the Republic of Kazakhstan-the new Athletics Club “ALTAY athletics club”. Within the walls of the East Kazakhstan regional Drama Theater at 16:00, athletics lovers will be the first to learn about the intricacies of creating a club and gather for a personal acquaintance with the administration. It’s no secret that now in Kazakhstan it is not so bad to engage in athletics. Athletes bring awards from competitions of different levels, undergo advanced training courses for coaches one after another, for example, only two master classes have been held in the last three months. In August of this year, the Olympic champion from Ukraine-1988 lecturer Tatyana Samolenko, together with her husband Alexander Apaichev, came to exchange experiences, and two days ago, the courses of the official IAAF lecturer from Estonia Viktor Predbannikov ended in Shymkent. Therefore, there is no doubt that Kazakhstan’s athletics will reach a new level. Creating a club is proof of this. The organization is headed by Askhat Rashidovich Seisembekov, and the duties of the general manager are performed by Swiss specialist Guido Tononi. We remind you that the presentation will be held at 16:00 in the Drama Theater on Satpayev street, 55, East Kazakhstan region. Inna Semenyak
