Popularization of the "Ready for Work and Defense" complex is an important task, Mikhail Degtyarev said in his Telegram channel. It is necessary to work on increasing the number of young people with sports qualifications. This also applies to conscripts.

For these purposes, the ministries are organizing a Youth Sports Contest of pre-conscription age. This event provides an opportunity for young men from all over Russia to test their abilities in military-applied areas, including hand-to-hand combat and terrain orientation. As a result, this has a good effect on the combat capability of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
The Minister stressed that a lot of attention is being paid to the sports adaptation of military personnel who were injured during the special operation. For these purposes, the Ministry of Sports and the Ministry of Defense organize training camps, competitions and events for the rehabilitation of veterans. In 2024, thousands of veterans of the Russian Military participated in the Defenders of the Fatherland Cup.
Earlier we wrote that in 2025, more than 14 thousand competitions will be held in Russia.
