When EMC was first established, the Erdenet sports complex was built by Mongolian-Soviet builders with a focus on the social issues of miners and a complex of arts, sports, schools, kindergartens and hospitals. The complex aims to provide sports facilities aimed at protecting the health and fitness of EMC employees, as well as the people of Erdenet, to provide quality and prompt services, and to train national, continental and world-class athletes.

“Khangard” sports club was established at the Sports complex by the Order No. 18 of January 29, 1990 made by Sh.Otgonbileg, General Director of Erdenet Mining Corporation. The club is the first unified sports club in Mongolia and in 2010 it added archery, and in 2014 it added epee swords, allowing children and young people from Orkhon province and EMC employees to practice or go in for 5 sports.
