 The issue of local self-government activities in the sphere of physical culture and sport development was discussed during the meeting, particularly, the issue of introducing a physical education instructor within the secretariats of executive committees of village and township councils, as suggested by the respective bill (Reg. No. 2830).

Participants of the meeting stressed that the necessity to introduce positions of physical education instructors in rural area is connected with the fact that conditions for holding physical training classes in this area are the most unfavorable due to weak facilities.   

It was noted that adoption of the bill will promote wider involvement of rural population in physical training.

A.Palatnyi presented diplomas to youth sports schools personnel, sport veterans and deputies of oblast council dealing with physical education and sport. The Committee Chair thanked them for proper upbringing of young generation.

Sport veterans were invited to the meeting, particularly, the honorary citizen of Pereiaslav-Khmelnytskyi city, the Black Sea Fleet javelin, hammer, shot put champion Mykhailo Lytvynenko.
