It should be reminded, that SC “Borets” / ZR Team is sponsored by the powerful medical company. The Centre for Human Reproduction “BioTexCom” provides services to foreign patients from all over the world. The news that clinic became the sponsor of Brazilian jiu-jitsu club has surprised many people. The connection between reproductive medicine and catch-style was difficult to deduce. However, seeing how both clinic and club are in their glory, it can be said that such sponsorship and community bring benefits for both of them.
