In Zarechnoye, the darts competitions dedicated to the memory of the Honored Coach of Russia Alexander Trudov were held for the first time.

The tournament “Cup of memory of A. F. Trudov” was held on Saturday, November 7. According to the press service of the Ministry of Sport of the Penza region, it was dedicated to the man thanks to whom darts appeared in Zarechny and subsequently developed in the region.

In the 90s, during one of the trips to competitions in Moscow, Alexander Trudov saw a target for darts and became interested in this sport. Returning to Zarechny, he decided to attract the attention of local residents to darts.

Already in the late 90s, the coach opened a darts section for children. Over time, this sport began to develop not only in Zarechny, but also in other settlements of the Penza region.

The first tournament in memory of Alexander Trudov was an opportunity for athletes to demonstrate their skills, as well as pay tribute to the coach who stood at the origins of the development of darts in the city.

In addition, the competition served as preparation for the Russian Darts Cup, which will be held in St. Petersburg next weekend.
