Shooting Competition
Throughout the year, the Ukrainian Youth Association organises a variety of different regional and national sporting events. For many years, this has included a shooting competition at Tarasivka. This year’s competition was held on Sunday 25 March, on a beautifully sunny spring day.
A total of 28 UYA members took part from 6 branches – Manchester, London, Nottingham, Bolton, Derby and Rochdale in rifle, pistol and field target events. The safety of participants and spectators is the highest priority, so the event began with a full briefing on safety and range discipline. The competition included beginners and those with more experience and even though not everyone can win, everyone did their best, including several participants who gained proficiency medals.

Many thanks to the organisers of the event – Ewhen and Lesia Kochan and Pavlo Hnylycia – and to the rangers who were responsible for safety and range discipline on the day – Halyna Mandzij, Volodymyr Kowalyszyn and Pawlo Okopskiy.
Other sporting events planned for the near future include national 5-a-side football and netball competitions, and the popular sports mini-camp in May. Forthcoming events are shown on the calendar. We would encourage as many of you as possible to take part – not only to compete but also to strengthen friendships and links with UYA members all over the country.
