The RIHF provided assistance to a young player from Yekaterinburg

The ice hockey community was upset by the message which arrived from Yekaterinburg: Lev Liu-Shan-Xia, a young player of the Auto-Spartak-2021 team, is seriously ill.

Doctors made the following diagnosis: an infiltrative brain tumor, pyramidal-cerebellar insufficiency and bulbar syndrome.

Nine-year-old Lev immediately needs expensive treatment, which can only be done in Israel. The boy's parents urgently need to collect 150 thousand dollars, and this forced them to seek help.

The Russian Ice Hockey Federation took part in the collection of funds required for long-term treatment and calls on everyone who has the opportunity to provide Lev with all possible assistance.
