Burlachenko overcomes “toughest moments of my life”

FEATURE: Baia Mare’s Ukrainian line player is torn between success on the court and the happenings in her home country


On the court, everything is clicking for Yaroslava Burlachenko, CS Minaur Baia Mare’s captain. Her 24-goal tally in the EHF European League Women this season is her personal best in 10 seasons with various teams.

Off the court, Burlachenko is trying to juggle with an array of emotions, juggling frustration, exhaustion, fear and constant worry about her country, Ukraine, after the war broke out.
