[000:00:00;00] donbass and donetsk in particular, the region is very sporty, here within the city there are several large stadiums not far from the olympic stadium. and this is the donbass arena. where the european football championship games were held in 2012, now it’s clear that there are no games here , there are no training sessions, the stadium is empty due to constant shelling from sides vsu. it’s hard to even count how many arrivals there have been here over the past year and a half. football matches in donetsk, like any other sporting competitions, are now, of course , prohibited and the newly created donetsk shakhtar

all games are played away, today the team goes to the lpr, sverdlovsk, the current donetsk shakhtar team is so young that even andrei lagoda, who is 21 years old, is considered a veteran here, of course, we want games to reinforce what we train in the training process, but thanks for that , that there is a training process in our difficult times and somehow the management finds games and friendly matches. and in addition to this, we are participating in the rostov championship. the major league among amateur teams is the miner. now everyone else goes twice a week days, the team trains in donetsk. and the parents, as they generally watch, take into account the training, when you leave, and so on, but my parents calmly watch. i am an adult and some of the guys on the team, as for others, but the parents have come to terms with this, the guys

are doing their favorite sport. the road to the now rear city of sverdlovsk, which is in the lugansk people's republic, unexpectedly took 6 hours until several teams were late for the match and went to the game from the wheels almost without warming up, people did not disperse all this time and waited in the stands and in this sense, donbass of course, a very football region. we are talking with the general director of the donetsk club, ruslan cherepkov, an important detail about the club itself. there is no professional status yet and now shakhtar can only participate in amateur tournaments, we are conducting training. we are getting out of the team's participation in the rostov region major league championship. uh, they made us such a calendar that we have two games a week and due to game practice the team grows and progresses guys, that is, they are constantly on the road, because they also come to us themselves

you see, they won’t come to donetsk. and of course, when we calmly conduct individual training in donetsk. we need to get ready and run too, then there will be no shelling. well, all adults have another option. we don’t, otherwise a few words about the guys. please tell us our academies donbass shakhtar and 3 years ago we consulted with the leadership of the republic, we have president vitaly viktorovich broom and the request of the society was that the donetsk shakhtar should play in donetsk has nothing to do with the fact that the second one, which ran away, guys, all local pupils. that is, all the guys who have already grown up with us. well, they didn’t, here are the players of the donetsk shakhtar here shakhtar that was created in 1946, when, too, from scratch after the war all the locals or brazilians are africans and we are not here shakhtar donetsk shakhtar sverdlovsk was held as part of the first round of the commonwealth league , in fact, championships among clubs of new

territories in the league 10 teams four for the lpr three times the dpr in one of the kherson zaporozhye regions and crimea well, that’s the biggest hope. we are now looking at the commonwealth league, this is the tournament we have been waiting for, it will actually be fnl or rpl. well, for new territories this is a lifesaver. now, that is, football is not dead, football is there and this will give a very big development on the road to sverdlovsk . the donetsk boys were led by coach sergei zolotnitsky, and in general, at the very beginning , two coaches left the club system as volunteers for the front. with an equal game, the donetsk team lost 3:2 and after the final whistle the amazing entourage fans ran onto the field

given the circumstances. there is a football club in donetsk with a professional status, or rather, a mini-football club called the guardsman, the team plays in the first league of the russian championship of the ufo zone, the club exists on the same schedule as the recreated donetsk shakhtar , training in the city but all games are on the road system, taganrog krasnodar leaf. we kind of accept, basically. when it happens to us that we accept a tour and accept it as

an expense, of course, it’s hard. what's happening in the city? i mean, with shelling, it's not scary to carry out learn the training here, you've probably already experienced this stage. we just had a situation a year ago. but recently, about six months ago , we trained with a friend in the gym in the depi and with the flow of circumstances of some kind of happy accident. we didn’t have a training session, i just flew into the gym, right into the locker room, where she was changing clothes and broke through the roof. well , that is, after that i was somehow wary . time passes. we love our work, we love what we do, so we no longer feel fear. we must develop must live train on the basis of the children's youth school, which

is located in a relatively safe area. donetsk regarding safety. this means that it is fired upon less often than others. the director of the sports school, i have a kip khaimurzin, is 81 years old, 60 of which he has been working here, well, we have formed four people, training. they serve and often serve this. well, ronin to defend. it was necessary right away. well done guys. let's go, nothing trainer now press a lot, how light women train girls train our former pupils. god well, the school is open. we give a lot for the russian federation, our children now have a lot of space and karateka wrestling, there are classics. there , football players in five sports are at their peak. 800 children studied here. now it’s half as much and still with the same restrictions, in small

groups several times a week, parents bring their children at their own peril and risk. they can also be understood given the school pandemic. donetsk has been working remotely and without sports for 4 years now. for a time, the children would be at home without leaving. well , they are afraid, but the parents are also getting used to it or are you at home the parents themselves tried to keep the child at home for 24 hours, they were stupefied by the parents themselves and the children too. and how do they even get there? it takes 2-3 hours to build it according to tradition. they are away from the litenka for 3 hours, no less distracted from home, studying here. fedya kuptsov is a prize-winner of the dpr judo championship and he has been practicing this sport for 7 years for his twelve years, your parents didn’t dissuade you from going, because after all, they changed. why

did the country turn out this way? very good was considered more, because there was water poured all the time, it was looked after people, and now it is in good condition, but it also needs to be made artificially, because there is nothing to water it with, not that it’s good that this year the rains saved us, a lot of rain

helped. considering that there are still problems with water in donetsk , it looks like some kind of miracle that there is a working swimming pool in the city. we all know that until recently, 2 hours every other day, also in the evenings, under such conditions.

as for the situation with the shelling, it can hardly be any different. so all our mutual desire, let’s say, because our parents parents trust their children. our children are prepared. they know what to do in case of shelling. that is, they should either hide in cover. or we should, if we lie down on the street, immediately find curbs, everything else seems to be, therefore , they trust us and we try. naturally, you should still use every opportunity to practice, because these are children. well, you see , these are quite old people to ride, who, in general, have already given eight, nine and 10 years to this sport and just kind of give up all this and don’t do it and don’t bring it to some logical conclusion. this gym, where gymnasts train, has a long history here, including training the olympic champion podkopayeva , in general, in order to achieve results in such

a complex form as artistic gymnastics, you need to train for 6-7 hours a day in donetsk , this is possible, we repeat for obvious reasons, the children don’t have it now. nevertheless , the coaches are trying to survive as much as possible in these circumstances. labor intensive let's say. um, how many workouts should you have in the morning? a child a day, who, give or take, is going to engage in professional gymnastics and how much time is actually allowed to spend now, in fact, we get about, say, 2 hours in the gym, no more. but we can add a street somewhere. that’s because we are also always in such a situation so that the children have time to arrive. if there was shelling in the morning, we know it will be somewhere after lunch, so that after training they can already get home in time. at least so that they are at home, so we don’t keep them here for a long time. and before, of course, we had uh,

extensive training, well, if possible, with older children, who were already more specialized. it was two training sessions. one in the morning, the second in the afternoon, well, in total, yes , and they could spend six hours, 7 hours in the hall, if they took it that way. mariupol is now a rear city and, unlike donetsk , sports sections can work here without restrictions, but there is another problem : most of the halls in the city are broken down. during the fighting, an unknown greco-roman wrestling club called huddle in the squares of the surviving fitness center. true , classes have become easier since september; now they are held in renovated school gyms in three schools; four even have carpets. there will also be training there, it’s starting to go slowly. maybe not as quickly as we would like,

but we also understand that when the next one is housing, hospitals and kindergartens need to be there only then. it's okay for now. artyom uzun is the son of the legendary soviet coach. gennady uzum. it was under his leadership that the wrestling club under azov masha became the owner of the european champions cup. and in general made a name for himself in the wrestling world, the youngest won bronze at the world championships in yunusov, but then quickly enough and became a coach himself this year, the mariupol guys actively travel to russian competitions, help and the federation says that the difference in level is immediately felt in russia. even decided on an order of magnitude much much more difficult. yes? it’s interesting, yes, of course, but that is, you know, if you train a russian champion here at some age, this already means that you are worth something,

as a coach, at first coaches from around the world collected inventory and equipment. despite the fact that, surprisingly, complete strangers came from big russia and helped . just the president of the voronezh wrestling federation arrived. we didn’t even know him , the first time we saw him, he introduced himself, looked , talked about and began, well done, what should we say? well, all our children have ukrainian tights. yes, they symbolized it. well, we have to go somewhere. we have to fight. russian. she says, i understand, in a month there will be 30 sets. i brought tights. he just gave a plus free of charge, rostov then the brothers came to hashish themselves. you there are also wrestling suits and costumes there. well, why did you bring t-shirts for 30 people? well, everyone is slowly helping. the coaching staff, like and most of the children from the sections, were in mariupol during the battles and it happened. this is largely due to the cannibalistic tactics of the ukrainian formations, the basis of which is that

it is easier to defend in a city where there are civilians than in an empty city, which is why it’s not that they themselves didn’t evacuate peacefully, but they didn’t allow people to leave everything that happened. and who was there, as well as the basement is not discussed here at all? no. you are somehow for yourself , sometimes certain moments come up. there we try to move on to the last stage. now, in the future, now we’re just looking , let’s say, we’re looking at our capabilities, we’re looking at the possibilities. let’s say so in big russia, we and we hope and believe. this means that we have a future, we have children. do this to him, catch up with him, run around him. and who is moving now , you can see his straight back, that’s him, yes. and let's go and continue with the priaz wrestling club. mashi resumed operations in august last year. and what’s interesting is that first the senior group guys got together and started training on their own, and only then did the coaches join them.

they kept this one for themselves. they organized themselves. then we started to communicate, we didn’t find each other, who you won’t see, where what’s not there. we are there we train. we need you. you need us, we found them, gathered the children and started around the city, only we saw who was who and the wind began to compare here. they immediately organized something themselves. yes, yes, and here we come. come on, they gathered everyone and began to gather their movement around the city. today's mariupol one large construction site in a small basement next to a high-rise building, which is currently being renovated by a kickboxing coach, and part-time president of the mariupol kickboxing federation, vladimir orlov, says that he gathered the guys, a bomb shelter and conducted training. even when there were battles for the city, they didn’t close

for a minute, that is, we had training going on. um, roughly speaking, i always lived in my own room. that is, we saved it. e your own gym. um, that’s why we, uh, on the contrary, aimed at making sure that children are even like that. well, that is, even in combat, they knew, well, they needed a distraction, so thanks to this, my fellow trainers. e together with the coach, 10 students lived and trained at that time. true, all this happened in a different way. where did the section come from later? about 100 children are engaged in kickboxing in the city, the potential is much greater, but now there is a problem with the gym orlov says that he is trying to come to an agreement regarding the renovated school gyms, but the main hope is that the section will be opened at the ilyichevets complex, which is now

restores very quickly. that's great, we'll move orlov come on, let's take action objectively speaking, right now there are much more important problems than sports and it is clear that a lot in this area in its own zone rests simply on enterprising people gennady denchik, head coach of the shakhtar football school and part-time director of a stadium in a small town, perevalsk, lugansk people's republic. fine. fold it up, it's good, it'll go, it'll go. will go to children's football. we have begun. i dreamed about him even before ukraine well, unfortunately, there was no opportunity to study. well, we

begged the kids for coaching bets. this is already the seventeenth year since then. look here. eh, the seventeenth year, let’s even say the eighteenth, because there the end was on the seventeenth. so, we work with children. during this time, football school. perevalsk became one of the best regions at the peak. 650 boys of different ages from all over the region studied here. well, this is our preparatory group for the fifteenth and sixteenth year. these are the kids who they try, but oh, it will work, they won’t succeed, whether they want it or not. these are already older people. children. it's 11-12. this is a bronze pre-silver medalist of the lpr championship in the twenty-second year. this year, 2013, some of their children are part of perevalsk, now conditionally a rear area, conditionally, because the ukrainian armed forces have repeatedly shelled the city, including the mikhailovs system, people in, let’s say , big russia are surprised by this. how

come the zones of words on the one hand here you were arriving, and on the other hand, well, children's football. you understand, we can’t throw these children away. they were born and the war began. they didn't see anything else. er, well, that is, they were proud, the war is already underway. and now it continues. if we don’t give you the opportunity to study, there’s no future. arrived here. well, right next to each other here, literally. that's across the park. here somewhere. well, if you have to go straight to the metro. where do you get from, where do you live, it’s far from here, probably 30 kilometers. well, not 30, a little less, well, with a box, because the bus doesn’t run at all. now parents are not afraid to let go. once upon a time

we went to russia in russia from orenburg our hemline was placed on amazon and made. these are the kind of treadmills they rolled up in the lpr. this is now the best field. first of all, he is selfless. oh, it’s better and everyone is trying to come there to play, all the teams are asking both sverloka and lugansk teams. everyone has already been here, everyone has already been stupid, the employees are doing the repairs at the stadium on their own.

after training, the processes involve everyone. who can do all the training, no matter how we work, there aren’t enough people, that’s why. i'm sitting down he’s a tractor, i sit down and drive across the field. that’s it, as if i’m taking the trimmer to my mow, as if with everyone else . well, here it is at the top. now, if you can see, we have completely blocked off the third floor, in general, gennady denchik has a very atypical biography for a children ’s team coach; he was an entrepreneur in 1414; he became an active participant in the russian spring and one of the organizers of the referendum in perevalsk; and after that, like many in donbass, he didn’t has behind him. even after serving in the army , he went to fight in the militia and received a call. look where they fought, in what sectors, well as if the war was taking place here, in our perevalsk region, 14 or 16 km of the front line was 8 years old. she stood there, we

entered the unit, indicate the donbass units. ladle. we occupied the thirty-second checkpoint to bang. he is there and has seen from him. that’s where, in principle , my military past. smoothing out, let’s say the wounded were many, there were many wounds from shrapnel , an extensive contusion was treated in the hospital. as far as i understand, the recovery takes quite a long time. well, yes, it takes a long time to recover. i'm driving now i dig once every six months, i have to dig because, well, it’s like sharing my experience with recruits a little bit at the training grounds. and even now he has not distanced himself from the front and keeps in touch with the brigade in which he served, you know, fellow soldiers , you don’t lose connections with the front, you are lost. of course not. well, we have a war horse, we

are always working. uh, with sergei yartsev you have such a blogger there in moscow. he collects everything our soldiers need there, plus, let ’s say, the poor military, what the guys ask for, it’s warm there, it’s like that, there are drones. we present everything, of course, without fail. how to participate you cannot be indifferent you must participate. how it turns out. i feel that it would seem that sports, and especially children’s sports, are impossible in conditions of hostilities, but the war in donbass has been going on since 1914 and for many people in pre-front cities it has long turned into an everyday occurrence, a sports section. where do children go for their parents? this is an attempt to live a normal life, not paying attention, but almost daily shelling. city

pervomaisk never land a person who has challenged himself. i fly wherever the wind blows, fedor konyukhov you have a storm front ahead. you walk straight towards him. this is a super cyclone killer cyclone. it 's like he's chasing you back. i give him mine. and he loves you when a dream

becomes the meaning of life. we got used to watching videos, stopped working , install, open, watch russian channels and all movie series and cartoons , educational programs and documentaries

. the russian army inflicted 11 group attacks in a week strikes with long-range precision weapons and drones on military facilities in ports, places of production and storage of uncrewed boats , weapons ammunition and the deployment point of ukrainian militants, the supply of the armed forces was disrupted , a large arsenal was destroyed, as well as two fighters, three attack aircraft were repulsed in a week 78. and so zelensky’s formation was destroyed,
