Rowing, the new sport that will be part of the Mediterranean Games “Prishtina 2030”

Rowing will be part of the Mediterranean Games “Prishtina 2030”, while the sports institutions of Kosovo have started preparations for the development of this sport in the country.

Acting Minister of Youth and Sports, Blerim Gashani, hosted the representatives of the Rowing Federation and the clubs of this sport from Prizren, Prishtina and Deçan, with whom he discussed the further development of the discipline, the current challenges and the steps to be taken to strengthen it.

According to Gashani, the Rowing Federation is in the licensing phase and is expected to be ready to contribute to the preparations for the Prishtina 2030 Mediterranean Games. He emphasized that the institutions will continue to support the federations and athletes, with the aim of Kosovo being properly presented as an organizer and participant in this great sporting event.

Meanwhile, rowing has been included as a basic sport in the first phase of the Sports Program for the Mediterranean Games “Prishtina 2030”, reflecting the importance that this sport has in the countries of the Mediterranean region. The organizers estimate that his inclusion will bring a new sports culture in Kosovo, will increase the participation of young people in sports and will contribute to the further development of Kosovar sports.

Through this project, Kosovo aims to create the foundations for the long-term development of rowing, transforming it into one of the new sports that will be promoted within the Mediterranean Games “Prishtina 2030”. /KosovaPress
