In Bangladesh, a new sports institute is set to be established for the first time under the initiative of the Ministry of Youth and Sports, with the slogan 'Centre of Excellence.'

The primary aim of this institute is to enhance athletes' physical and mental abilities, improve sports techniques, and cultivate leadership qualities in order to achieve national success.

Asif Mahmud, the advisor to the Ministry of Youth and Sports, shared details about the project and its objectives during a press conference at the Secretariat on Sunday.

“Discussions are going on to set up a sports institute that will provide specialised sports services and infrastructural facilities through effective collaboration with national and international renowned sports institutions,” the sports adviser said.

“Our goal is to produce skilled athletes of international standards and achieve higher results at the international level. Many developed countries, including the United Kingdom, the United States of America, China, and France, have achieved incredible success in the field of sports by combining sports and science in an impeccable way. Bangladesh also wants to reach that goal through Bangladesh Sports Institute.”

Asif further said that experts from Bangladesh and outside of the country will join sports institutes to train the athletes in order to achieve the target.

“To ensure the quality of service and achieve the desired results, experts from the country and outside of the country will join the Bangladesh Sports Institute. The Ministry of Youth and Sports is committed to executing this project as early as possible. As a centre of excellence, the Bangladesh Sports Institute will be a blessing for the sports fraternity.”
