In which, it is proposed to suspend the opening of the sports congress in the communes and the town, the sports competitions, the entertainment activities and the sports activities in the district until further notice.
Due to the suspension of sports tournaments and the opening of the sport congress at the grassroot levels, by the end of May, only 1 commune had finished the sport congress at the grassroots, the remaining communes organized from 2 - 3 sports. Particularly, 10 sports competitions in the district’s sports congress have not yet taken place. Despite many difficulties, the district requires the relevant units to propagate and mobilize the civil servants, the officials, the employees, the coaches and the athletes to raise awareness and actively implement the measures of Covid-19 prevention.

Overcoming the difficulties, implementing on schedule and the scale of the sports congresses at all levels is a premise for the district to promote the movement of sports and physical training, mobilizing the People to continue effectively implementing the campaign "All people train their body following the great example Uncle Ho”.
