May you have an abundant and amazing new year filled with goodness and well-being for you and your families. May the next year bring you significant achievements in sports, private and working life as well.

We are pleased to announce that the preparation for the 3rd World Youth ARDF Championship is being carried out with the active support of local governments in accordance with the outlined plan.

There has been a ban on Russian men ages 16-60 from entering Ukraine while martial law has been imposed, and there are concerns that a new Ukrainian national law would potentially impose jail time for anyone entering Ukraine who had previously traveled to Crimea directly from Russia since the territory was seized by the Russians, as that would constitute a previous illegal entry into Ukrainian territory.  This would potentially affect some Russian ARDFers who have traveled to Crimea for ARDF events in recent years.  The press release doesn’t elaborate on how either of those concerns might have been resolved.  If anyone is thinking of going, I would recommend contacting Igor Lazarev US0VA directly for more details.
