Aiming to promote a healthy lifestyle Tbilisi city hall plans to deliver professional equipment to sports unions and federations, Tbilisi mayor Kakha Kaladze said today at a regular meeting of the city government.
The budget for the entire project amounts to 600,000 GEL over the year.
"We have got lots of federations which do not have the possibility of providing elementary sports equipment. We are going to support them,” Kaladze said adding that the selected sports are sambo, boxing, riding, shooting, wrestling, tennis and volleyball.
Kaladze, who is an ex-footballer who spent most of his career with AC Milan as a defender, hopes that the project will support teams and clubs to practice the sports they have chosen and be more successful.
