The international underwater sports competition “Snow Fins” is in jeopardy. This was announced by the organizers of the tournament - the Tomsk Regional Underwater Federation. The competition has been taking place in Tomsk since January 2011 and is the only major competition in underwater sports in our city. Submarine athletes from Siberia, Europe, Asia and Africa come to compete in their skills. It is now unclear whether “Snow Fins” will be held in Tomsk next year - the regional department of physical education and sports has refused funding to the organizers. And the allocation of money is not the only problem.
