Azerbaijan, Baku, May 14 / Trend , D.Ibrahimova/
The Azerbaijan Gymnastics Federation is planning to develop sports in regions, Federation Vice President Altay Hasanov told a press conference.
"We want to develop sports in regions and to hold local championships there," he said.
It is difficult to say that any region separately is ready for such a development, he added.
"Any sport requirements need special preparation, and we must make the regions to meet those requirements," Hasanov said.
The Federation needs time to carry out plans.
The 25th Championship of European Rhythmic Gymnastics 2009 will start in Baku on May 15. The Azerbaijan Gymnastics Federation assumed implementation of the championship. Some 186 gymnasts from 32 countries will perform at the championship. The opening ceremony of the championship will take place at the same day at 18:300 at local time.
