Issyk-Kul, Sept. 3, 2026 /Kabar/. Kok-boru is not just a sport. It requires the ability to gallop quickly, lift the carcass from the ground, and wrestle for it with an opponent, said Tynychali Azimbaev, a guest from the Jalal-Abad region.
According to him, a kok-boru match between the Kyrgyz and US national teams took place the day before.
"They respected each other and played beautifully, throwing the carcass into tai kazan. This game was passed down to us from our ancestors and has been preserved for centuries."
Today, it continues to develop and is becoming one of the most popular national games. This is a great achievement, and may such games continue.
Over 100,000 guests came to the World Nomad Games. This is a great achievement. So many people are interested in kok-boru, and guests from abroad watch our game with admiration. The atmosphere at the hippodrome is indescribable", he noted.
