A new phase of the Games of the Future project has been launched in Tobolsk, as the city opens first phygital sports classes in local schools. The classes will be combining traditional sports with digital disciplines including phygital basketball, tactical biathlon, Just Dance, and phygital football.

The project had won a grant offered by SIBUR's Formula for Good Deeds social investment program providing school children with an opportunity to experience this new sports format in a familiar school environment. Over 50 sets of state-of-the-art equipment and gear have already been procured to fit out the classes.

Pavel Veshkurtsev, President of Tyumen Oblast’s Phygital Sports Federation:
"Phygital sports open up new horizons for school students as they not only promote physical health but also help develop digital literacy, strategic thinking, and teamwork skills. We are confident that the launch of these classes in Tobolsk’s schools will act a catalyst for the movement's explosive development in the region."

The innovative disciplines have been made available to students attending three of Tobolsk's secondary schools, Schools No. 7, 9, and 16. School No. 16 already teaches Just Dance, phygital football, and phygital basketball classes. Phygital classes will also be set up at the Tobolsk Multidisciplinary Technical College.

Tobolsk is the first city in Tyumen Oblast to offer phygital classes in general education institutions. In November, the city will be hosting its first major sporting event in this field: the Regional Games of the Future Tournament.

The project marks an important step toward nurturing a new sports culture where the fusion of traditional games and state-of-the-art technologies helps unlock the potential of budding athletes serving as a focal point for helping children develop social connections.
