15 сентября 2017

The President’s ice hockey team is celebrating its 20th anniversary. The team held its first training in July 1997. Today, those who contributed the most to the development of the team, together with their families, were invited to the Palace of Independence in Minsk. Guests were given a tour of the halls, where important state issues are discussed and international meetings and landmark summits are held. For the anniversary, an impromptu photo exhibition dedicated to the history of the team opened here. The photos feature the most memorable moments and spectacular victories in matches, as well as, of course, the raw emotions of players.

The team unites veterans and young people, former professionals and amateurs, as well as the President of the country and ordinary citizens. Over the 20 years of its existence, the team has proven itself among the world's amateurs of this sport. Every year, the main start for the squad is the Christmas Tournament, where the Belarusians have celebrated their success 10 times now.
