CSKA defender and Army School graduate Dmitry Samorukov congratulated the club's players on a successful season.
The CSKA Hockey School won the overall Moscow Championship, and the 2009, 2013, and 2015 teams were the best in their age groups and at the All-Russian competition.
- I congratulate our school on an excellent season and well-deserved victories! You demonstrated excellent preparation and team spirit. I also wish success to the teams that are yet to compete in the Russian Championship. Play with pleasure, give your all, and may good luck be with you!
- CSKA players often come to our students' school to talk and answer their questions. You've also participated in such meetings. How important do you think this is for the kids?
- These events are very important. They inspire the kids and give them real-world guidance. Young athletes see what they should strive for and receive valuable advice on how to overcome difficulties, work on mistakes, and stay motivated.
- What are the most memorable moments for you when you played for the CSKA school?
- Back then, I especially valued the team atmosphere. We always supported each other during training and matches. Individual victories aren't as important as the ability to stick together, lend a shoulder to cry on, and play for the overall result. And what's especially valuable is that most of us are still in touch. We stay in touch, celebrate each other's successes, and meet up occasionally.
