SPORTY FUTURE IN SHIRAKAMUT VILLAGE

The youth of Shirakamut village has great potential to succeed in sports. However, lack of quality infrastructure is a major obstacle for them to succeed. We plan to build an open-air street workout park to solve this challenge.

The project goal

We aim to create the best facilities for the children, youth and adults of Shirakamut village for doing sports and leading a healthy lifestyle, and promote the development of a strong generation.

Why Street Workout?

Street Workout is an international youth sports movement based on strength exercises performed with your own weight.

The creation of sports ground in Shirakamut in accordance with international standards will provide an opportunity to:

• enhance youths' physical and mental abilities,
• develop a generation of healthy, intelligent, and strong individuals,
• create a platform to promote a healthy lifestyle,
• build new sports grounds, promoting the physical activity of various social groups.

In addition, the villagers will have the following advantages:

• Opportunity to engage in promising sports 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all year round.
• This is a unique opportunity to do sports without spending much money.
• By becoming a part of the large network of the Armenian Street Workout Federation, youth will have the opportunity to participate in the Armenian and international street workout championships.
• There will be a chance for young people to obtain a coaching qualification and get a job.
• A generation of healthy and strong individuals will be formed in the village and neighboring communities.

ABOUT QUALITY STANDARDS

Our goal is to create a long-term value for Shirakamut and surrounding communities. The sports ground is going to serve the villagers for years without losing its quality and appearance. To ensure that:

• the pipes will have thick iron walls, as the equipment should withstand a weight several times higher than a person's weight. 
• the pipes will be powder-coated so that they do not fade, rust or lose their appearance for a long time;
• modern and super strong connection points will be used.

Here is what we have today.

About the Shirakamut village

Shirakamut (formerly Nalband) is located on the border of Lori and Shirak regions. During the devastating earthquake in 1988, almost all the buildings and infrastructures of the community were destroyed. Today, the population in Shirakamut is nearly 2,500, and the villagers have an opportunity to rebuild one of the sports infrastructures.

The village has a football team, which regularly achieves successful results in regional competitions. Moreover, young wrestlers regularly participate in school tournaments and the Freestyle Wrestling Championship named after Valery Gasparyan and record victories.

Join us. Let's change the quality of life of the community together!
