Systematically involvement in sports citizens has increased in Ufa. Their number increased from 50.7% to 54.1% in 2022. The capital's administration informed this Bashinform News Agency. The mayor's office noted that Ufa hosted 1,685 sporting events last year in which more than 500,000 citizens participated.

The city administration said that the growth in the number of sports fans requires the construction of new sports facilities and the modernization of existing ones. Moreover, according to the decree of the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, by 2030, the share of sports fans should grow to 70%.

“To make a significant contribution to the achievement of this indicator, of course, it is necessary to build new sports facilities near the place of citizens’ residence. Sports grounds within walking distance are built every year in the city districts,” says Yegor Sorokin, head of the department for physical culture and sports of the Ufa administration.

Recall that for the 450th anniversary of Ufa, a wrestling center, a fencing center, and a complex of facilities for rowing slalom are being built in the capital.
