In Uzbekistan, special attention is paid to the development of handball, creating modern conditions, and motivating young athletes to properly represent the country on the international stage. Various championships and competitions have taken place as part of this work.
From July 19 to 26, games of the 4th stage of the Uzbekistan Handball Championship for junior boys' and girls' teams (U-14) were held in the city of Navoi, at the base of the modern physical culture and sports hall 'So'g'diona'. Fourteen teams representing various regions participated in the competition.
The eight days of competition allowed talented athletes from different regions to test their strength to win the championship title. The events were characterized by intense matches and bright moments, demonstrating the formation of qualified athletes and professional teams in the field of handball in the country.
According to the results of the championship among boys, the team from the Khorezm region took first place, the team from the Surkhandarya region took second place, and the team from the Andijan region took third place. Among girls, the winner was the team from the Navoiy region, the second place was the team from the Namangan region, and the third place was taken by the team from the Karakalpakstan Republic.
At the awards ceremony for winners and prize-winners, the Chairman of the Uzbekistan Handball Federation, Kuvondiq Sanakulov, congratulated the young champions on their achievements and wished them higher results in future competitions.
It was noted that thanks to the support of the Navoi Mining and Metallurgical Combine and the Kasaba Union Council, this sport is gaining popularity. The creation of a modern handball hall based on the 'So'g'diona' complex in the city of Navoi has expanded opportunities for interested parties.
According to the head coach of the Navoiy region handball team, Husniddin Holmurodov, about 150 people regularly train in this hall. Thanks to the initiative of the Kasaba Union Council, six men's and women's clubs were formed, which quickly gained the right to participate in the republic's top league and represent the honor of NKMK on prestigious arenas. Among them played athletes such as Asadbek Tolibov, Rukhshona Roziyev, Nasiba Toxtaeva, Khurshid Yakubov, Gulsanam Ahadova, Sevinc Rahmonova, and Mushtariybon Hamroeva, who achieved success, including victories at the World Cup, and are members of the national handball team of Uzbekistan, as well as Asian and Uzbek champions.
To conclude the competition, the winners, prize-winners, and active participants were duly recognized.
Thanks to the constant attention to the development of sports included in the Olympic program, especially Eastern martial arts, talented youth in our country are achieving significant success on the international stage.
Recently, the 'WT' taekwondo international tournament named 'Chuncheon Korea Open' took place in the city of Chuncheon, Republic of Korea. Athletes from our country defended the honor of the Motherland by achieving high results.

Bekzod Yooldoshov (37 kg), who participated in the cadet competitions, also won matches, reaching the semi-finals, and won bronze medals by taking third place.
In connection with these significant successes, it is worth noting the efforts of Holmurod Nozimov, head of the Namangan Regional Branch of the WT Taekwondo Association, as well as experienced coaches Ma'murjon Nozimov and Javohir Sirmatov.
The Namangan athletes are preparing for a new important challenge—the 'CUP G-1' international tournament, which will be held in Seoul, South Korea, from July 25 to 28 of this year. We wish our representatives good luck at this competition.
