The youth national hockey team of Uzbekistan (U17) held the ADIHIC training camps in the hockey training center in Almetyevsk. The head coach of the team Dmitry Makarov shared his impressions of the trip:
– Our team is made up of players born in 2008 and 2009. The training camp in Almetyevsk was organized to prepare for the 2025 World Youth Championship (U18) and the Youth Championship of Kazakhstan (2024-2025). This is the second time we have come here, and I hope we will come again. This is one of the best facilities in Russia, it has everything you need for ice hockey development and progress. We came to play with a strong opponent, to see what needs to be corrected and in what combinations to play next. The guys saw for themselves how their peers play in Russia. We liked the attitude in everything. Tatarstan lives by hockey, there is a hockey atmosphere here.
Now the team will continue its preparations for the season in Tashkent. Very soon, the national team of Uzbekistan will play in the Youth Championship of Kazakhstan in the group of the strongest teams
