It is known that the so-called "chemistry" is a very important factor in any team sports. To have a complete mutual understanding at the court as players as coaches ought to communicate more out of the pitch. Another thing is that the heavy schedule (2 games per week) does not always provide such an opportunity. Taking such a priority of a one-week break between two games in PBL Championship Moscow Region team (all the players, coaches and staff) spent a joint evening.

At the bowling center the players came with their wives and girlfriends, and some of them with children. The atmosphere of the evening was a truly family one. Someone sat at a table and told funny stories, and someone rivaled on the playing track. The most active bowling amateurs proved to be Zoran Planinic, Kresimir Loncar, Vitaly Fridzon, Vyacheslav Zaytsev and BC Khimki acting head coach Oleg Meleschenko.

— I think it's a good idea to have a rest in such an iformal size — in the time off, when you can relax from training process, — Oleg Meleschenko said after the end of the meeting. — This season's schedule is quite difficult. I know from my experience that to create a comfortable atmosphere within the team such meetings are very useful. On the eve of the day off, after an evening training, it was decided to meet together. All the guys liked the evening, each one got a positive charge.

— Practically all the evening you didn't move off the track, do you like bowling so much?

— I like such a rest. But I do not play so often, only in the offseason it's possible to come to any center along with my wife.
