President of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) Viktor Maygurov “” reported that the executive committee of the organization redistributed the funds intended for the prize money of the championship and the Cup of Russia in favor of juniors.
The meeting of the first executive committee of the RBU, during which the budget of the organization was approved, was held on September 7 in Moscow.
– As for the Commonwealth Cup, no adjustments have been made. As for the Cup and the Russian Championship, we have slightly redistributed the funds for the juniors. Originally intended for adults only. It is important at this time to support our juniors. If adult athletes, at least the majority, receive salaries, juniors only have a few. Now it is important to support our younger generation to keep them motivated,” Maygurov said.
– Coaches don’t get prize money at the Commonwealth Cup?
“There is nothing for the coaches. The only thing is that we plan to give funds to the regional federations for the Russian Cup and Championship at the end, and they will decide who to encourage.
