Biathlon Federation of Ukraine approved the final composition of the men's team for the next season.

So, under the guidance of coach Jura Sanitra, 10 biathletes will prepare for the next season, among which, both experienced and young athletes:.

Dmitry Pidruchny, Artem Prima, Sergey Semenov, Artem Tishchenko, Ruslan Tkalenko, Andrey Dotsenko, Anton Dudchenko, Vitaliy Trush, Taras Lesyuk, Bogdan Tsymbal.

Assistant in the training of athletes will be two assistants: Alexey Kravchenko and Igor Yashchenko.

"I made the project team for four years, according to which we will prepare for Beijing. But every year we will see if we are coping with the program.

I brought together in the team all young athletes who were good at junior age. I want to work with them, they have prospects.

We took the strategy not to make team B, but to make one team, in which there will be 10 athletes.

Now we have decided that we will slightly change the coaching staff. I want coaches working with me who have a perspective of their professional growth, and can then work further at the highest level, "Sanitra told XSPORT.

Recall earlier it became known that two biathletes of the Ukrainian national team had completed their careers and would now perform in Russia.
