This year, a team of women was organised by American “Fullbright” Programme Assistant, volunteer Chanel Nassir, to promote the sport of lacrosse at “Silk Road” International University of Tourism and Cultural Heritage.

On 6-8 June of this year, a presentation and master class was held at our university in the presence of young people by the Director of the Asia Pacific Lacrosse Alliance, Chris Gino. At the event, a memorandum was signed with a specialised sports school to develop the sport of lacrosse in our country. The organisers also provided sports equipment for talented youth and leading coaches to further popularise the sport of lacrosse in Uzbekistan.
