From April 12 to April 14 in the sports and improving "Irtysh"took place complex open championship of the Uvatsky municipal area in Greco-Roman wrestling of memory of Valery Vasilyevich Korchyomkin . Unlike tournaments of last years when on a uvatsky tatami fought for a victory and children, and adults, young men of two age categories participated in a present meeting only: 13-15 years and 9-11 years.

Since 2013 uvatsky tournament on Greco-Roman wrestling became a symbol of memory of V. V. Korchyomkin - the founder of this sport in our area.

This person made an enormous contribution to development not only sports branch, but also in education of modern youth. It gave to people much more, than took: sports to which Valery Vasilyevich devoted life, became today our property and pride. Under a sensitive management of school teacher V. V. Korchyomkin traditions of modern skiing and biathlon, Greco-Roman wrestling and volleyball were put, the most powerful material resources of the Uvatsky biathlon center are created.

"In school days Valery Vasilyevich grew small, shchuplenky and always considered itself insufficiently strong, - the spouse of the athlete Zynaida Danilovna Korchyomkina remembers. - And after the termination of the 10th class of Uvatsky high school it arrived to study in the Tobolsk seaworthy school where got acquainted with the first coach on wrestling by Nikolay Ivanovich Novikov. They kept close connection, friendship for the rest of life. Alexander Stepanovich Kudinov at whom he was engaged in Omsk institute of physical culture became the following trainer.

I want to tell that sports, and first of all Greco-Roman wrestling helped to become the strong, strong, real organizer of sports life Valery Vasilyevich. Many thanks for today's action, and, I think, it will be fine if in each of the centers similar to Uvat, people pay a tribute of respect to those who devoted the life to children and cared about their health".

Today Valery Vasilyevich sports traditions found successors in the Uvatsky area: trainers of the A.N Child youthful sports school continue to develop Greco-Roman wrestling. Manapov and M.A.Medvedev. Their pupils regularly speak at regional and regional competitions where take prizes. Force and the health put on trainings in sports halls, become the key to success not only in sports, but also in study, career.

For almost 15-year history of open superiority of the Uvatsky area the geography of participants of tournament stepped far for a municipality framework. The proof to they are nearly two hundred athletes who have arrived to Uvat from different corners of Sverdlovsk and Tyumen areas, the Khanty-Mansi and Yamal-Nenets autonomous areas.
