– I am pleased to announce that in the new season the SKA system will be represented at the JHL level not only by SKA-1946 St. Petersburg, but also by the SKA-Junior Academy team, created on the basis of SKA-Varyags. The team under the new name will perform in the city of Krasnogorsk, Moscow region, at the Petrov Ice Arena. Thus, we maintain the presence of the club in the Youth Hockey League and at the same time expand its geography.
The move of one of the MHL teams to Krasnogorsk is a natural and deliberate step, towards which we are systematically moving. Now, as part of the SKA Academy, we have an excellent “Red Machine Junior” operating school, the older ages of which, under the leadership of Gennady Gennadievich Kurdin, show excellent results. The presence of a youth team in the area will allow the guys to painlessly move to a professional level without leaving far from home and parents and without leaving the club.
We bring to Krasnogorsk a good, combat-ready team, professional trainers and our system, which is ready for a new challenge. Competition is the engine of progress, which is why we strive to create the most competitive, but at the same time comfortable conditions for our young players.
I am sure that the appearance of the SKA-Junior Academy team in Krasnogorsk is a new page in the big book of hockey development that we are writing together,” wrote Roman Rotenberg, general director of the SKA hockey club. , on the Telegram channel.
The Continental Hockey League Board of Directors at the next meeting will consider the issue of making changes to the composition of OLIMPBET participants in the Youth Hockey League Championship of the 2023/2024 season with regard to the name of the club team.
