The event, scheduled from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM, is organized by the Tennis Federation of Turkmenistan as part of the implementation of the state strategy to promote sports and a healthy lifestyle, The Golden age electronic newspaper reports.

Holding such events in large public venues is aimed at engaging broad segments of the population, especially young people, in regular physical activity.

A rich program has been prepared for guests and visitors of the center, including an exhibition match featuring six players, a visual demonstration of basic game elements and professional techniques, and a masterclass led by a qualified specialist from the Tennis Federation of Turkmenistan. During the event, anyone interested will have the opportunity to try their hand on the court using professional equipment – rackets and balls provided by the organizers. For this purpose, a mobile court with a portable net and the necessary training equipment will be set up at the venue.

The organizers note that the main goal of the event is to increase interest in tennis as an Olympic sport and to give citizens the opportunity to engage in active leisure.
