— We called many new players. Those, who hadn’t been in the national team before. We want to see the maximum of girls from all the regions, while it is possible.
There is a wonderful base in Sochi. We will hold several workouts in the open air on the stadium with a gym. The training session will be mostly focused on handball part and team interactions. If we have time, we will go swimming, — the official HFR website quotes Akoplyan.
