Mongolia to construct world standard football field www.news.mn
A new world standard football field worth MNT 800 million will be constructed in the slopes of Bogd Khan Mountain. Located south of Ulaanbaatar, the site is surrounded by beautiful scenery and is practically untouched by the air pollution which plagues the capital during the winter months.
Mongolia has national football teams in nine age categories and taking part in international matches. However weather and environmental conditions cause difficulties for trainings. To tackle this issue, a project on establishment of a training centre for the national teams has been initiated by the Mongolian Football Federation (MFF) and is being implemented in Tuv province, said Sh.Jargalsaikhan, Head of Technical Department of the MFF.
The three year project is being financed from the International Football Federation and the ‘Greenfield’ company of Holland will work as general contractor and ‘Derennaran’ as sub-contractor.
An additional football field with retractable roof is planned to be built. Therefore the new training centre will help Mongolia's national teams save their time and expenses training abroad and will create favorable condition to develop football sport locally, said G.Lkhagvasuren, Provincial Director of Physical Culture and Sports Office.
