PhosAgro congratulated the Cherepovets Volleyball Center on its anniversary

Exactly 15 years ago, a unique sports facility, the Volleyball Center, began its work in Cherepovets. The institution opened its doors to young and experienced athletes, allowing them to practice in comfortable and modern conditions.

The first gold came to the Cherepovets volleyball players of Severyanka after four years of intense training. However, as it turned out, this championship was only the beginning of further victories. In 2014, the team’s official sponsor was PhosAgro, one of the world’s leading producers of phosphorus-containing fertilizers. It was the support of the company that provided the club with a reliable material and technical base, thanks to which the development of the team’s sportsmanship continued.

And today Severyanka’s collection includes awards of the highest levels: in Major League A, the team won six sets of gold and two silver medals, and in Major League B, they became champions and winners. Not without medals in the First League. In addition, last year Cherepovets volleyball players won the World Championship, and before that they took home gold and silver medals from the European Championship.

It is also worth noting that the representatives of Cherepovets have repeatedly played for the Russian team at various competitions, and this year four athletes received such invitations.

Now 500 people from young to old can train in the volleyball center. Moreover, the development of the institution does not stop, this year, with the assistance of PhosAgro, it was possible to purchase the necessary office equipment and update the flooring in the Yubileiny sports hall.

Valery Fedorov, PhosAgro Deputy General Director, took part in the solemn event on the occasion of the round date and congratulated both the center and the team on the holiday. He noted that the company is proud that a real school of champions has been created in Cherepovets, which produces world-class players from its walls. PhosAgro will continue to support Cherepovets volleyball and cheer for Severyanka.

Let’s add that at the end of the celebration, the NWFD tournament among volleyball players born in 2008-2009 was launched. Nine teams will compete for victory here.
