March 2: Club Football (Soccer) Practice
Russian children often focus on only one sport or extra-curricular activity at at time. They will train 5 - 6 times a week. Some club's train year around while other will take a short break depending on the club's level, sport, and season. This approach to children's activities today is similar to the approach employed during the Soviet era.
This children's club football team practices 5 times a week. Practice is only canceled if the temperature drops below -15 C or they can not see due to poor conditions. The children in this picture looked to be about 7 - 8 years old in person to me.
