A new stadium has been opened in the centre of the Zatyshanska amalgamated hromada of the Odesa Oblast. It was constructed with co-financing from the state and local budgets. As Alyona Mirzakirova, Head of the Department of Education, Culture and Youth Policy of the AH, informed to the Odesa Local Government Development Centre of the U-LEAD with Europe Programme, the settlement used to have a football field that looked more like a lawn than a stadium.

After the AH formation, it was decided to build a stadium so that the sports teams did not have to go for training to the rayon centre in Zakharivka. Construction began at the end of last year at the expense of the state budget (2 million 200 thousand hryvnias), and in spring the Zatyshanska AH continued building sports complex on its own – investing over UAH 2 million 600 thousand. Now there is a mini-football field with artificial cover, a modern race track, workout equipment, simulators.

In addition, a new stadium is planned to be set up near a school in the village of Torosove, which joined Zatyshshia.
