The team included: Irina Petrenko, Anastasia Merkushina, Kristina Dmitrenko, Anna Krivonos, Lyubov Kipyachenkova, Alexandra Merkushina, Elena Gorodnaya And Yulia Gorodnaya (spare).
For Dmitrenko, Alexandra Merkushina and the Gorodny sisters, the upcoming European Championship will be their debut.
We would like to remind you that it became known earlier that the leader of the Ukrainian national team, Yulia Dzhima, will miss the European Championship in order to purposefully prepare for the World Championship.
Earlier, Nikolai Zots said that Irina Petrenko, Anastasia Merkushina and Kristina Dmitrenko will not compete in individual races at the fifth stage of the 2023/24 World Cup in Ruhpolding. Immediately after the successful relay race, the athletes went to Antholz to train in high altitude conditions. Later, all three plan to take part in the World Championships.
The 2024 European Championships will take place in Brezno-Osrbli, Slovakia, from January 24 to 28. The 2024 World Cup will take place in Nove Mesto, Czech Republic, from February 7 to 18.
