sport.Fr/Other. The CEO of the 2023 Universiade in Yekaterinburg, Alexander Chernov, commented on the decision of the International University Sports Federation (FISU) to cancel the competition.
Recall that FISU has indicated that the 2023 Universiade in Yekaterinburg could be moved to another location, but has not yet specified where exactly the competition will be held.
“It’s not a transfer from Yekaterinburg, it’s a transfer to a later date. The dates will be determined in November,” TASS said, citing Chernov.
The Yekaterinburg Universiade was scheduled to be held August 7-19, 2023.
At the 2019 Universiade in Naples, Italy, Russian athletes took second place, winning 22 gold, 24 silver and 36 bronze medals.
