Kovalenko: I believe in the future success of Kharkiv hockey. Russia will not leave anyone in trouble!
Olympic champion Andrey Kovalenko spoke about the development of hockey in the Kharkiv region.
“Just the day before, I returned from the Kharkov region to Nizhny Novgorod. There are many emotions from visiting the city of Kupyansk, Kharkiv region, where, on behalf of the All-Russian Popular Front, on the Day of the Athlete, the Putin Team handed out meetings to volunteers.
These are courageous people who, despite all the risks, deliver humanitarian aid to the liberated populated areas – only to veterans and the disabled.
It is clear that now the region is not up to hockey. But in Kharkov and the region there are excellent hockey traditions, back in Soviet times, Kharkiv Dynamo and other teams were hit figures on the country’s sports map. I met with students of sports schools in Kupyansk – boys and girls know a lot about hockey, their eyes light up, our sport is very interesting to them.
I believe in the future success of hockey in Kharkiv and the region, long-term traditions will definitely stretch our sport in this industry. Russia will not leave anyone in trouble!” — quotes Kovalenko Russia-Hockey.ru.
