There are many traditional sports with horses in Kazakhstan. Some are hundreds of years old and they are still popular today. Baiga is a horse race. Usually, boys between seven and fourteen years old take part. Baiga races cover different distances, starting at just a few kilometres. Alaman baiga races can be up to 100 kilometres long and are very tiring! Kumis alu is a race to pick up the most coins from the ground - except all the competitors are on horses and they can't get off or even slow down! They have to lean down from the saddle and pick up the coins as they ride by. The winner is the person with the most coins. Kyz kuu is like the playground game 'kiss chase' - on horses! A man and a woman ride their horses towards a finishing line. If the man wins, he can kiss the woman. However, if the woman wins, she chases the man back to the start of the race and, if she gets close enough, she can even hit him! This is a very popular event with locals and tourists. Long ago, Kazakh people played these sports to help them practise horse riding, an important skill out on the steppe. These days, sports like baiga, kumis alu and kyz kuu are just for fun, but they also remind the Kazakh people of their proud history.
