First Deputy Minister of Sports of the Republic of Mordovia Olga Igosheva told that the Russian junior figure skating championship will be popular among local residents.
The tournament will take place in Saransk from February 6 to 8.
— Saransk is becoming a center for competitions at various levels, including figure skating. We have had a close and fruitful relationship with the FFKKR for a long time. Major tournaments have been held several times. A hundred of the best young athletes who will embody the future of this sport in Russia gathered in the capital of Mordovia. For our residents, it is a big celebration that will attract the attention of participants and trainers. I think the tournament will resonate with our residents.
Figure skating enjoys special love and popularity among residents of the republic, we are trying to create the necessary conditions for figure skating, there are all the necessary sports infrastructure.
Our city had the honor of hosting two more major competitions in the above-mentioned sport in March: the Friendship Cup and the Russian Synchronized Skating Championship. This is a big holiday for our residents,” Igosheva told .
