September 5, 2025
The Belarus Trampoline Championships have kicked off in Vitebsk. Over 70 athletes from across the country are competing in several program disciplines.
Oleg Andreichik, Deputy Minister of Sports and Tourism of Belarus, addressed the attendees with a welcoming speech. He wished the participants high sporting achievements, emphasizing that the best athletes not only from our country but also from the world have gathered here.
– This is one of the competitions that will influence the upcoming World Championships, – two-time Olympic champion Ivan Litvinovich told "VV". – We are demonstrating approximately the same combinations that we will perform in November in Spain.
One of the highlights of the Belarus Championships is the mixed pairs competition. This relatively new program discipline was introduced by the International Gymnastics Federation to popularize trampoline jumping. It adds extra spectacle to the tournaments. However, it has not yet been included in the Olympic program.
– In the mixed pairs competition, I will be jumping with a new partner – Yana Lebedeva from Vitebsk, – Ivan Litvinovich continues. – We have been training together for about a month. We will try to surprise the judges. Of course, I would like to win in all program disciplines, but the strongest will win.
