Dear friends, members of the World Kurash family!

We are about to welcome the new year, as another year comes to end.
This year has been a year of many achievements for our beloved Kurash.
Kurash is notable for being officially accepted as a sport in the Islamic Solidarity Games Program.
Also, many international competitions and refereeing and coaching seminars were successfully held throughout the year.
From June 6 to 11, more than 200 of the best Kurash athletes from 18 countries of our continent competed in the Asian Senior Kurash Championship in Tehran, the capital of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
At the end of the year, this championship was recognized as the best Kurash competition of the year by the International Kurash Association.
Our activities during the year were highly appreciated and the Asian Kurash Confederation was recognized as the winner in the “Best Confederation of the Year” nomination.
This is an assessment of the development of Kurash in Asia. This is an achievement of all national federations in Asia.
I express my sincere gratitude to the International Kurash Association and the world Kurash family for this high recognition.
I believe that the new year 2025 will be one of the most successful years in our lives.
I wish you good health, long life and great victories in the new year.

Happy New Year!

Komil Ruziev
President of the Asian Kurash Confederation.
