“Our athletes’ proficiency has significantly improved. This was made possible thanks to the sports complex built by the gas company,” said Natalya Kandaurova, principal of the Tatishchevo secondary school. “Before it was opened in 2013, children engaged in physical activities only if the weather was good enough since our village did not even have a gym. When Gazovik opened its doors, children started spending their school breaks at the gym and attending various sports classes in the evening and at weekends.”
Volleyball players showed an ambitious and committed game. In the course of an intense struggle, the home team from the Tatishchevo secondary school came out on top.
All participating teams were presented with sports gear that will help them improve their performance
