In St. Petersburg, the 2nd Suvorov Cup competition was held at the city center site for adaptive sports.
More than 100 veteran athletes of the special military operation, representing 10 regions in the North-West, participated in the Leningrad Military District Spartakad in adaptive sports among people with lesions of the musculoskeletal system. The Suvorov Cup program includes eight sports: shooting, archery, powerlifting, arms, swimming, table tennis, sitting volleyball and athletics. At the same time as the competitions, the guests and participants of the Cup could visit exhibitions of UAVs, small arms and military equipment, as well as a historical exhibition dedicated to Alexander Suvorov.
"For the second year in a row we are hosting these major competitions. And it is deeply symbolic: here the participants of the Northern Military District and military operations, who were seriously injured, are returning to an active life through sports, strengthening new achievements," the organizers write: "Spartacade united strong people from different regions, and proves once again that there are no limits to sports."
