4 July at Lake Balote near Jēkabpils in Latvia concluded the final of the Carp Fishing World Championship. The Ukrainian women's team recorded a result that moved the team into the lead in the overall team standings.
The Ukrainian women, over 72 hours, pulled 64 fish from the water with a total weight of 261,7 kg. The tournament was held under catch-and-release rules, in which every caught fish is released back into the body of water. By these measures our team left England's and France's teams behind.
The multiday format of carp fishing requires competitors to endure through all three days without breaks. Consistent performance over that period put the Ukrainian women in first place among national teams. Conditions for preparing the women's team for the world championship were provided through cooperation with the Federation of Sport Fishing of Ukraine, which since August 2025 has been supported by LLC SITIKOD (brand BETON).
“For us it is important to create conditions where Ukrainian athletes can fully prepare for international competitions and represent Ukraine at the highest level. Supporting the Federation of Sport Fishing of Ukraine allows the team to focus on sporting results. The women's team gold at the Carp Fishing World Championship demonstrates how significant partner support can be in the development of athletes and their international achievements,” said Roman Balashov, CEO and owner of LLC SITIKOD (brand BETON).
The women's team's gold became an important interim result of the support that the Federation of Sport Fishing of Ukraine receives.
