Sport in Kyrgyzstan is not just recreation, but also training of willpower. People had to be strong and resourceful in order to survive in the mountains and steppes, and sports helped them acquire the necessary skills for this. Sport also reflected the traditions and values of the Kyrgyz people, helping them pass their culture down from generation to generation over the centuries.
The most popular sporting events in Kyrgyzstan are equestrian games. Kok-Boru is a game in which, having split into teams of eight people, riders on horseback fight for the carcass of a goat, and having captured it, they must throw it into the opponent's goal, for which they are given points. Both the rider and the horse require a great deal of endurance and willpower, as well as a tolerance for pain. The rider also needs to be strong enough and physically prepared to lift a carcass from the ground and fight for a trophy with another player; at the same time, you need to dodge and repulse the attacks of opponents, and this cannot be done without dexterity. Finally, victory can only be achieved by working together, becoming a united team and clearly understanding your partners. Regular games in kok-boru in ancient times were for the men of Kyrgyzstan the most real training before the war and hunting.
My favourite holiday is New Year. it is one of the oldest and deeply revered holidays. not only children but also grown-ups love New Year. New Year is a special holiday in my family. this is the time when we all gather at a big table. A few days before New Year we put up our Christmas tree in the living room. we also decorate all the rooms. we put Christmas figures on the shelves. all these things feel our house with a special festival atmosphere. my mum cooks something special for New Year’s dinner. we all help her. we like to follow the new trend and celebrate New Year wearing same colours as the colour of the animal in chines calendar. We usually watch different New Year programs on TV on this day. when the clock on the Kremlin tower strikes midnight, we, according to the long standing tradition, make our wishes and give each other compliments of the season. after that we exchange gifts with each other. For me, New Year is the night, when air is filled with magic, this is the time of new hopes and aspirations, a feeling of easiness and joy. this is the time when I want to live, enjoymy life to the full and move forward!
