The Children's Tennis Festival ended in Ashgabat

The sports event was held in the capital of Turkmenistan for three days - from 14 to 16 April and was organized by UNICEF and the Tennis Federation of Turkmenistan. The main purpose of the Festival was to popularize active healthy lifestyle among children and youth. The festival was timed to coincide with the World Health Day and the 30th anniversary of the Federation.

Young athletes of different age groups performed on the shady courts - a total of 150 participants were registered. The winners received awards from the tournament organizers.

The second part of the closing ceremony included a lot of interactive activities - children even without basic training could try their hand on the court, to participate in competitions and training workshops, to get souvenirs and gifts.

Throughout the Festival, children could come to a specially organized area to learn about UNICEF's work in Turkmenistan and around the world, get plenty of information about healthy habits and spend quality time playing educational games.
