The capital of Ukraine hosted rowing competitions dedicated to the memory of the distinguished coach Stanislav Zahoria.

Twenty-eight teams from across Ukraine participated in the tournament. Odesa was represented by a team of veteran athletes who were injured during the war and now actively engage in sports, proving that willpower and team spirit can overcome any obstacles.

Before the tournament, the Odesa team held training sessions, familiarized themselves with the course, and prepared for the competition, as they faced distances requiring endurance and teamwork. The competition was tough, and the opponents were formidable.

During the competitions, Odesa's rowers once again demonstrated their high level of preparation and desire to win, securing prize places. The strength of spirit, resilience, daily training, and genuine team support led them to this well-deserved success.

This victory is not just a sports achievement but also a crucial step towards full recognition of adaptive sports. Our athletes prove that nothing is impossible.

Odesa will continue to support the development of adaptive sports and create equal opportunities for everyone.
