Training Session at Trinta
Today at Trinta Sports Scool former Army player Andrey Kirilenko, CSKA physical trainer Vladimir Grechishkin and PBC CSKA guard Nikolay Padius held a training session for young basketball players. The event’s organizers were Russian national team player Kirilenko and the Italian company Bella. At the beginning of the session, Grechishkin conducted a typical CSKA warm-up with the participation of Kirilenko and 10 sport school students. Afterwards, Kirilenko and Padius showed the future basketball players drills to improve their speed and coordination and different moves to add to their arsenal. It ended with a streetball game with teams made up of the professionals and Trinta’s best students.

Andrey Kirilenko:
I’m happy to help children. When I studied at the sports school, any time one of the St. Petersburg Spartak players would come it would be an important event. I hope that we were able to show the kids a good time today. I’d like to especially thank my good friend Kolya Padius and Vladimir Grechshikin, who, in my opinion, is the best in his field.

Nikolay Padius:
I really liked playing basketball with the kids. It’s already the second one I’ve participated in my life (the first was a month earlier in Norilsk). There are many pleasant emotions. I hope I was able to show the kids something new in basketball.

Vladimir Grechishkin:
I’ve had a real "children’s" summer. First of all I spent five weeks with the CSKA summer camp. Now Andrey and I are holding training sessions. By the way, soon we will hold a similar event in St. Petersburg.
