Donetsk State Medical University named after Maxim Gorky is preparing to celebrate its 96th anniversary. By this date, the rector of the university, academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Grigory Anatolyevich Ignatenko planned the commissioning of a new sports complex on the campus.
“In 3 weeks, the Federal State Medical University Maxim Gorky Donetsk State Medical University of the Ministry of Health of Russia will celebrate its 96th anniversary,” the university said.
Students and employees of DonGMU observe the final works of the builders. One of the final stages was the installation of a fence around the entire perimeter of the complex.
“One of the final stages was the installation of fencing around the entire perimeter of the complex,” the ministry said.
The fence on the sports field is not just a formality. This is an important element of infrastructure, which solves several tasks at once: from security to the organization of space. The fencing prevents balls and other projectiles from flying off-site, reducing the risk of injury to people nearby. It also protects viewers from accidental hits with sports equipment.
“The fence prevents balls and other projectiles from flying outside the court, which reduces the risk of injury for people nearby,” the university said.
The fence restricts entry into the territory of unauthorized persons. This helps maintain order and reduces the risk of vandalism. It also helps to divide the playground into functional zones: a playing field, treadmills, a warm-up area, a place for spectators. In addition, the protective design helps to preserve the sports equipment and coating, preventing their damage.
“The fence limits the penetration of unauthorized persons into the territory, which helps maintain order and reduces the risk of vandalism,” the department said.
Grigory Anatolyevich is determined to keep the sports complex in its original form as long as possible. Taking into account the recorded facts of repeated vandalism in Gulliver Park, located near the university, the rector focuses on the need for strict control over the safety of the facility.
“Given the recorded facts of repeated vandalism in Gulliver Park, the rector focuses on the need for strict control over the safety of the facility,” the university said.
The new sports complex should become not just an architectural addition to the campus, but a full-fledged center for a healthy lifestyle of the university community.
“We create conditions so that each student and employee can improve their health, reveal their sports potential and feel part of a large university family,” said Grigory Ignatenko.
According to him, the task is to preserve this site as a space of creation, not destruction.
