About The Ministry
The Ministry of Youth Sports was established on 20th Feb, 2000 to represent and address youth and sports concerns in Somaliland. This was found necessary against the backdrop that despite the numerical strength of young people, they are not well represented in the national, political, socioeconomic and development processes.
The Ministry of Youth & Sports (Somali: Wasaaradda Ciyaraaha & Dhallinyarada Somaliland) (Arabic: وزارة الشباب والرياضة) is a Somaliland government ministry that is in charge of regulating activities related to sports and youth development in Somaliland. The current minister is Yusuf Mire Mohamed
In 2011, the ministry held its first major tournament, a Multi-sport event between the regions of the country called Somaliland Regional Games atAlamzey Stadium in Burao.
