MOSCOW, Dec. 5 (Xinhua) -- Around 9,500 athletes are expected to participate in the 2013 Kazan Universiade, Russian Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko said Wednesday.
"We think that 9,500 athletes will take part, plus 1,500 to 2,000 coaches and specialists," Mutko said.
Earlier, it is expected that the Universiade in Kazan will attract over 13,000 university athletes from more than 170 countries and regions.
"We will have 301 medal sets on offer, just one short of the London Games," the sports minister said.
The Presidential Heraldry Council of Russia on Saturday registered the flag for the games, a stylized tulip drawn 1 in five colors on white background accompanied by the Universiade logo.
