«SAMBO Marathon» was held in Ukraine

«SAMBO Marathon» was held in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi (Odessa Oblast) from the 6th to the 10th of September. This ancient town, which is actually 2500 years old, hosted the Ukraine SAMBO Youth Cup and the tournament, dedicated to the memory of Roman Shkolnikov, founder of Ukrainian SAMBO.

About 400 sportsmen from 17 regions of Ukraine participated in these two tournaments. Following the results of the competitions, national teams will be formed. They will take part in the World SAMBO Youth Championships in October (Serbia) and the World SAMBO Championships in November (Russia).
