Zambia Sports Minister Chishimba Kambwili began an official visit to Cuba on Monday.

The visit is part of an effort to renew the sports cooperation agreement signed between Cuba and Zambia in 2007, according to a government release.

Following that agreement, two Cuban coaches have served in Zambia — one in boxing and the other in track and field.

There are currently seven Zambians studying at the International School of Physical Education and Sport in San Jose de las Lajas in Cuba’s Mayaeque province.

Kambwili is being joined by a delegation including Parliamentarians and the Youth and Sports Ministry.
