Sports ground for the Umit Orphanage

Implementation of the “Sport, Health and Achievements” of the “Saby” Foundation is continuing in regions of our country. The current year has not become an exception. A sports complex in Petropavlovsk commissioned in May has become a gift for small pupils of the boarding-school No 2.

The construction of a multipurpose sports ground for children from the Umit orphanage of Ust-Kamenogorsk has also been completed. According to standard conditions defined by the Foundation for construction of such facilities the 450-square meters ground fenced by 4-meter safety grid has been equipped with basketball rings, gates for mini-soccer and racks with removable volleyball net, which allows, if necessary, to transform the ground quickly and easily for different kinds of sport. In addition, a special rubber covering, which protects against injuries in summer, can become a skating-rink for figure skating and ice hockey in winter. Powerful searchlights illuminating the ground along the perimeter give the children an opportunity to engage in sports activities until the very last post.

Long-awaited holidays have begun, and this gift for boys and girls came in very handy.
