Ukrainian high jumper Yaroslava Maguchikh was named the best Balkan athlete of the year. Ukraine has been a member of the Balkan Athletics Association since 2016.
"Congratulations to Yaroslava Maguchikh from Ukraine on being recognized as the Best Balkan Athlete of the Year. Her exceptional performances in the high jump have elevated Balkan athletics to the world stage and we are delighted to see her shine," the statement said.
On October 27, the 23-year-old from Dnipro won the Best Athlete in Europe award.
