The Ukrainian Athletics Federation is proud to announce a young and improving team for the European Cup Winter Throwing in Split this weekend.
The oldest member of the Ukrainian team is 23-year-old National Junior Hammer record holder Yevhen Vynohradov, while 16-year-old World Youth Discus record holder Mykyta Nesterenko heads up the incredible fresh young talent that has moved through the Junior and youth ranks at speed to compete at a senior level.
Nesterenko's outstanding 62.83m throw in Yalta moved him to number two in the 2008 World rankings, while 17-year-old Shot Putter Dmytro Savytskyy is also punching above his weight, after winning World Youth Shot Put bronze last year, this year he has moved onto the adult weight, and finished second in the Ukrainian Championships with 18.46m. U23 European Javelin bronze medallist Oleksandr Pyatnytsya will also make his senior debut.
The U23 and Senior women's teams boast the participation of the Shot Put family Samolyuk, where both Viktor and little sister Hanna will compete, along with three European Junior Championship medallists: Javelin throwers Vira Rebryk and Roman Avramenko, and Ivan Hryshyn who won the silver medal in Discus throwing.
