Orsha residents Nazar Logunov and Ilya Filimonov are silver prize-winners of Belarus's prestigious children's tournament
Last weekend in Minsk at the "Olympic Arena", the decisive matches of the "Belaruskaliy – Federation Cup" in the U14 age category took place. In the final match, the hockey players from the Vitebsk region put up a serious fight against their peers from Minsk, losing only in overtime (3:4 OT). The silver medalists from the Vitebsk region team were the Orsha students of SDYUSHOR "Lokomotiv-Orsha" born in 2011, Nazar Logunov and Ilya Filimonov.
The main goal of the "Belaruskaliy – Federation Cup" is to find and scout talented kids, as well as to monitor their development and track the dynamics of progress throughout the season. Another task of the tournament is to raise the level of the teams that will represent Belarus in the championships of federal districts (PFO), so that they can provide more serious competition to opponents from Russia.
Congratulations to the guys on their victory and we wish them new sports successes!
