Among organized sports activities, the most important approach is practiced by the sport associations, which represent the basis of any organized sport system. The number of associations, range of activities, material basis, achieved top sports performance, and many other elements are parts of common physical culture of a nation and our wealthy heritage.

There are a lot of sport organizations with many people who are participating in the regular sports. Having divided them into groups, we can segregate those who practice sports for pleasure, and those who do it for a possible top sport results. In reality, most of them are involved in qualitative sports with no results, and about 8–10 % are involved in serious professional training, from early selection to the national, European and international level.

People practiced unorganized activities for many reasons. They do it themselves, in the family, with friends, they sometimes participate in organized sport events.

The early days of the twentieth century were busy days for organized sport movement. More and more clubs were formed in the country, special schools and courses of physical training were established in large cities and towns. A lot of sport leagues and national associations appeared because they had to provide competitions in specific sports.

Our town is proud of the most famous sportsmen like V. Alekseev, V. Tregubov, M. Logvinenko, L. Kodtratyeva, D. Rigert, A. Silnov, and many others. Their names are world famous and we are proud of them.
