At the upcoming World Nomad Games, which will take place in Kyrgyzstan, 43 types of sports competitions will be presented. This was announced by Kazybek Moldazhiyev, the director of the State Agency for Physical Culture and Sports, at a meeting of the parliamentary committee dealing with issues of science, education, culture, sports, and youth affairs.

He also reminded that at the first games, the number of sports was limited to just 17.

Representatives from about 100 countries have already expressed their intention to participate in the sixth Nomad Games in Kyrgyzstan, and invitations have been sent out, Moldazhiyev added.

An important point is that kok boru and kokpar will be presented separately. The kok boru competitions will be held according to the rules of Kyrgyzstan, while kokpar will be conducted according to the rules of Kazakhstan.

It is worth noting that at the World Nomad Games 2024 in Astana, during a kokpar match between the teams of Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan, an incident occurred. A player from Kazakhstan struck a representative of Kyrgyzstan with a whip, leading to a scuffle on the field. The match was suspended to clarify the circumstances.

As a result of that match, the Kyrgyzstan team lost to Kazakhstan with a score of 5:4. After the conclusion of the Games tournament, representatives of the Kyrgyz Kok Boru Federation issued a statement expressing dissatisfaction with the officiating, calling it unfair.
