Legendary Ukrainian footballer and former head coach of the national football team Andrey Shevchenko elected Vice President of the National Olympic Committee of Ukraine.
It should be noted that the position of the first vice-president of the NOC will be taken by Alexey Perevezentsev, who previously worked as the general secretary in the organization. In addition to Shevchenko, Maria Bulatova and Aleksey Dneprov became vice-presidents of the NOC.

In May, Shevchenko became the first ambassador of the UNITED24 presidential initiative, which is designed to help Ukraine fight the Russian invasion. He also takes part in charity matches and projects to raise funds to help his native country.
The ex-coach of the Ukrainian national team in October joined the Tribune of Heroes charity foundation and met with the families of Ukrainian ultras. Shevchenko transferred 400 thousand hryvnias to the organization.
