The organizers of this year’s Asian Youth Games have decided to postpone the Games until December 2022 due to the current Corona epidemic.
The tournament was planned to be held in Shantou, China, but was postponed until next year, with organizers saying their primary responsibility was to ensure the health of all, including competitors.
However, the decision to postpone the tournament has not been announced yet, but the decision was taken after lengthy discussions between the Asian Olympic Committee, the Chinese Olympic Committee and the organizers.
Commenting on the postponement of the tournament, Chinese Deputy Prime Minister Han Zheng said that organizing sports tournaments under this epidemic was a big challenge.
However, he added that he hoped that next year’s Winter Olympics in China would be held on a scheduled date without delay.
