April 6 – International Day of Sports for Peace and Development and World Table Tennis Day
Two important holidays are celebrated on April 6 – the International Day of Sports for Peace and Development and the World Table Tennis Day. These celebrations highlight the importance of sport as a tool for maintaining peace, cooperation and social development, and popularize sport among the masses.
The International Day of Sports for Peace and Development was declared by the UN General Assembly to emphasize the role of sports in promoting harmony and cooperation between nations. Sports promote health, increase self-esteem and contribute to building peace and stability in society.
World Table Tennis Day is celebrated to popularize this exciting game among people of all ages and social groups. Table tennis promotes the development of movement coordination, reaction speed and strategic thinking.
Celebrating these two holidays reminds us of the importance of sports in our lives. Sport is not only a means of maintaining health, but also a means of maintaining peace, development and mutual understanding between people from different parts of the world.
