Are local sports classes and/or activities available for kids?

Many activities through the school. Dance, karate, horseback riding, hiking, etc. - Sep 2020
Yes, many options. - Aug 2020
It is difficult to find activities for kids such as music lessons or gymnastics. - Jul 2019
Children grade 1 and up can choose from a number of after-school activities at ISU. Local classes outside of that for sports are hard to find and often have inflexible schedules; that said, one of the Mongolian Moms organized soccer lessons at Star apartments with a (semi)-professional player and a new ballet school opened up across the street. Things are always changing here. - Oct 2016
Yes, but not that organised as in many other countries, and a great deal of detective work and follow-up would be needed. Information management and marketing is not a Mongolian forte. Horse-riding comes to mind. - Feb 2015
ISU has a good after-school program. There are many commercial after-school programs, but some will require Mongolian language. - May 2012
Mongolia does not have officially recognized sports clubs for kids. Horseback riding, archery and other activities, are popular outdoor activities for all ages. As with most countries outside of the U.S., soccer (the white, round ball and not the brown, oblong ball) is huge here. - Feb 2011
Football (soccer), basketball. - Jan 2009
