The Minister of Education and Science of the Russian Federation Dmitry Livanov announced in early September that starting next 2016, all schoolchildren in our country will take the TRP standards without fail. Only those children who cannot go in for sports for health reasons will be exempted from passing the standards. True, this fact must be confirmed by an appropriate certificate from a doctor. According to the minister, the "Ready for Labor and Defense" complex is an excellent opportunity for every schoolchild, student and adult to test their physical fitness and determine the trajectory for self-development.
Recall that it was originally planned that the revived complex "Ready for Labor and Defense" will be exclusively voluntary and will cover 11 age groups of the population, citizens from 6 to 70 years old. From sports tests, applicants can choose running, swimming, pulling up, jumping and other disciplines aimed at developing speed, flexibility, endurance, coordination and strength. At the end of the test, each participant will receive a badge.
The experimental stage of the TRP started in our country on September 1, 2014 and will end in December 2015.
