Athletistic/Hockey. As reported on the Championship portal, the Russian hockey team that applied to participate in the Belarusian championship turned out to be the Slavutich club from the city of Smolensk.

This hockey club was founded in 2010, and in 2014 it was already planning to join the Belarusian additional league, but this step was not taken. In the 2011/2012 and 2013/2014 seasons, “Slavutich” became the champion of the VHL championship. In the 2016/2017 season, the team took second place in the VHL championship, losing to HC Rostov in the series final (1-4).

Recall that today, December 12, the Belarusian Hockey Federation announced that one of the Russian clubs has applied to participate in the country’s national championship and it is also planned to increase the number of participants in the championship to 14 teams. .
