“The first stage of the updated sports and recreation complex named after the 200th anniversary of Sevastopol received permission to be put into operation. As promised, the builders delivered the stadium and courts by the first of July,” Razvozhaev wrote.
The new stadium is welcomed by both football players, rugby players and track and field athletes.
“Before this, we did not have a site where we could undergo normal training. Today we purchased the athletics house.
