"The Center for Military Sports Training and Patriotic Education « VOIN » in 2024 plans to expand the geography of its presence. The Murmansk region will become another point on the map, where the regional branch of the organization will be opened."

[....]

"Among the tasks of the Center « VOIN » – to prepare young people aged 14 to 18 years to serve in the Armed Forces of the country, to strengthen them physically and morally."

"Another task – is the training of citizens aged 18 to 35 who are in stock. The « VOIN » center should help them restore their lost skills and competencies, as well as give new knowledge of the military-technical features of the SVO."

Sports training as devoted to activities that have a definite military application. To include but scarcely limited to: * Target shooting * parachuting * physical fitness * driving a vehicle * martial arts.

See from the wiki a description of the Soviet Cold War DOSAAF:

"DOSAAF . . . was a paramilitary sport organization in the Soviet Union, concerned mainly with weapons, automobiles and aviation"

Out with DOSAAF and in with VOIN.
