The Ukrainian beach soccer national team has started their second training camp of the year. The NTZ runs from March 16 to 20 at Kyiv's Hydro Park. Unlike the February gathering, the pool of candidates for the national team is narrowed down from 24 to 15.

Under the leadership of head coach Andriy Yevdokimov and his assistant Artem Kryvoruchko are working: Dmytro Voytenko, Volodymyr Voronkov, Oleksiy Degtyaryov, Oleksiy Kyrychenko, Danil Kislov, Igor Lysenko, Mykola Lysenko, Sergii Maksymets, Oleg Merzhen, Oleksandr Samoilenko, Hlib Symchyn, Artem Fedorenko, Pavlo Shponyko, Oleg Shchitnyk, and Denis Yamak.

The rest of the candidates received individual assignments.
