Moscow’s 2DROTS Club Inspires Smolensk Orphans with Football Development
The Moscow amateur football team, 2DROTS, recently demonstrated their community spirit by visiting the Shatalovsky orphanage in Smolensk, Russia. The team, ambassadors of the ‘DobroFon’ charity program, organized a special event aimed at supporting young footballers within the institution.
Sports Equipment Drive and Mini-Tournament
2DROTS, learning about the needs of the children, swiftly launched a collection drive for sports equipment. The response was overwhelming:
“There was an unreal number of people willing to share sports equipment for the guys! We collected our boots and balls and let’s go!”
Upon arrival in Smolensk, the team held a mini-tournament for the orphanage’s pupils. The event was filled with enthusiasm and excitement, touching hearts across the board.
Meeting with Coach Dmitry Valentinovich
Among the many memorable moments, a standout was the meeting with local coach Dmitry Valentinovich. Dedicated to the children’s development, he shared his team’s incredible journey to London where they met legendary coach Arsene Wenger!
CSKA Invoice and Road of Life Foundation
This isn’t the first time big-league sports have supported the orphanage. Last August, 15 boys were invited to Moscow by the CSKA football club, a trip funded by the ‘Bet on Good’ campaign between FONBET and CSKA. Yusuf Yazici, the goal scorer, directed funds towards purchasing sports equipment for the children.
