On 15-16 February, the Tajik National Olympic Committee held a workshop for sportscasters.

This is the fourth seminar organized by the Association of Sportscasters jointly with the National Olympic Committee and the Committee on Sports, Youth and Tourism. The purpose of this workshop is to improve professional skills among journalists writing about sports events. Currently, there are more than 40 journalists specializing in this field. “We have young and perspective journalists who need assistance and new knowledge”, — said Narzullo Latipov, chairman of the Sportscasters’ Association.

Bakhrullo Rajabaliev, chairman of the National Olympic Committee says that close cooperation between the Tajik sports institutions and the Association of Sportscasters is widely seen as a support – a moral support in the first turn – to Tajik sportsmen. “We would like to improve the quality of coverage of sports events”, — said Rajabaliev.

Chairman of the Sportscasters’ Association said that his institution is intending to expand the coverage of the preparation to the forthcoming Olympic Games in China.
