Double Olympic medalist Alexander Loginov believes that the creation of the International Club Biathlon League (ILCL) will be one of the options for the development of this sport in the context of the exclusion of Russians from international competitions.
The first MLKB Cup will take place on November 18 and 19 in Khanty-Mansiysk. Russian and Belarusian biathletes will take part in the races. For victory, athletes will receive 1 million rubles.
— I don’t think about how this will affect development. We must understand that we are now stewing in our own pot, and we must make the best of the situation and look for development options. I fully understand that we are currently in a difficult period for potential growth, but we need to develop somehow,” Loginov said on the air of the show “Everyone for the match !”. on .
The founders of the International Club Biathlon League were the regional biathlon club of the Moscow region and the Belarusian biathlon club. The main objective of the organization is to organize alternative competitions to the International Biathlon Union (IBU). Since the clubs are not members of the IBU and the Russian Biathlon Union, the activities of the league do not fall within their competence.
Russian and Belarusian biathletes have been suspended from competitions under the auspices of the International Biathlon Union (IBU).
The channel will broadcast live the races of the first Cup of the International Club Biathlon League.
