“Komunarіvets” team needs financial support
Mykolaiv baseball team “Komunarivets” has distinguished in the ranking of Olympic sports in Ukraine. According to the results, baseball players gained 3 900 points, which is one of the best rates among sport teams in Mykolaiv region.
But team needs sponsorship support, athletes and families of baseball players assure.
This year, Kyiv baseball club “Dzhmeli” took part in the European League and won bronze medals. It should be noted that this Kyiv club includes four players from Mykolaiv “Komunarіvets” team. Some players are also candidates for participation in the national Ukrainian team.
One of the players’ moms promotes idea of creation baseball teams in schools. She explains such proposal by noting that the winner of the Mykolaiv school league will be able to travel for free to Kremenets town to take part in the final match of the “Little league” of Ukraine. In turn, Ukrainian winner of the competition will take part in the final of the international baseball tournament, which will be held in the United States. However, creation of school teams and in general development of baseball in Mykolaiv requires significant financial investments.
“Formation of teams in regular and boarding schools will help to establish contacts with American and European baseball schools. I am sure they are open for cooperation and will gladly share their experience with us. In future, talented players will be able to receive invitation of the leading American colleges,”- said one of athletes’ mothers.
If I had money I would for sure share them with these baseball players. They like baseball. They play this game. And they cannot fulfill all their aims. It is only due to the lack of money. It’s sad and unfair. I hope in Ukraine this satiation will be changed in some time. Maybe, some years and people will realize all the force of this game. I didn’t realize it until visited the match. It impressed me very much. I even couldn’t imagine it is so interesting and amazing.
Maybe someone will hear them. The main problem is that baseball is not very popular in Ukraine. It is the only problem. If it is popular and profitable there will be many sponsors and people who want to support this sport. Now it is not profitable. But, as for me, one can take a team, invest in it and then to receive profit. Of course, people want to receive money just now. But, I think this team is rather prospective. I mean it can be great in some time. With the help of funds and appropriate support it is possible. Who knows, time will show. Maybe in some years sponsors will fight with each other to receive this team)) I wish them it will be just in such way. They deserve it. Good luck Komunarivets!
Well it is not a surprise. Why do people even sell baseball bats in country that doesn’t really play baseball? And when the only other use for them is beating the sht out of people? Is baseball that popular in Ukraine anyway? If this was Japan or S. Korea or the Caribbean, I’d understand. But to me it’s even sounds ridiculous. People who barely see the world ask for money on sport that not even really exists there. But in the same time having reproductive medicine on the highest level in Europe. I believe that third world country like this should ask money for education grands or smth; Instead of such silliness.
Those players are really fans of this game. It is really pleasure, that their parents also express their ideas towards development of baseball. I am sure, American and European baseball schools will be happy to help them in this issue. Thus, the young players will have the opportunity to improve their skills and knowledge. I think, they need somehow to attract sponsors. It might help them to improve their financial problems. And no doubt, this team will have a great future. They just need the help from people and organization, that cares about it.
