Contributing to the future. President's Sports Club names scholarship recipients

The President's sports club stimulates its scholars to new achievements. Next year, the talented athletes and coaches who manage to surpass their own records can expect higher financial rewards. Now the young sports elite, including promising coaches under 40, amounts to 306 laureates in 35 sports. A few days ago, the President's Sports Club named next year's scholarship holders.

Ilya Korzun plays for Shakhtar and the junior team. In the future, he dreams to make it to the NHL and play for his country's national team. In January, the young hockey player won the gold medal at the Youth Olympic Games. The addition of his name to the scholarship list is not a surprise.

The athletes who are on the main roster of the national teams do not take part in the project. The accent is on the young ones who are just starting their sports careers.
