Champions

All the characters are in a large two-story house. It's possible to leave the house. It's summer outside. Summer holidays.

Styopa Prygunov is a reliable goaltender for the Blue Pennants. He is the youngest and shortest member of the team, which is why he is often affectionately called "little one." However, despite his age and modest size, Styopa possesses incredible jumping ability, reflexes, and courage, protecting the goal in the most critical situations.

Gosha Yolkin is a defenseman for the Blue Pennants team. He's one of the most emotional and noticeable characters on the court. He's not particularly large, but he makes up for it with incredible speed and agility. Gosha is very energetic and explosive, easily provoked by opponents from the Red Meteors, which is why he sometimes acts as a distraction on the field to protect the rest of the team.

Gena Palkin is a forward for the Blue Pennants team. Appearance: A tall, handsome man with curly hair and freckles. Personality: In everyday life, Gena is modest, friendly, and even a little shy. During training, he sometimes needs a reminder to pull himself together ("Gena, pull yourself together!"). However, on the playing field, he instantly transforms: if opponents start bullying or insulting his friends, Gena turns on all his might and delivers a fierce fight.

Ivan Barashkin is the captain of the Blue Pennants team. He's distinguished by his red hair and good-natured personality. Ivan is goal-oriented, honest, and reliable, the true heart of the team. However, he can sometimes be overly attached to things (like a treasured hockey stick with an autograph), but he always learns from his mistakes.

Lev Glebov is the goalkeeper for the Red Meteors team. Insecurity and self-criticism: Lev often suffers from impostor syndrome. His perennial problem on the field is "catching the goalposts instead of the balls and pucks." When the game isn't going well and he keeps conceding goals, Glebov easily becomes disillusioned, doubts his abilities, and becomes melancholy. Determination: Despite frequent misses and regular scolding from stern coach Taras Taranov, Lev never gives up completely. He is willing to learn new things (for example, mastering secret techniques from the enigmatic Old Man or undergoing "globalization") to become a true master of his craft. Loneliness and shyness: By nature, he is rather a reserved introvert. Unlike some of his more brazen and cunning Red Meteor teammates, Lev is more sensitive, a bit timid, and even fearful. Because of this, he sometimes keeps to himself, finding it difficult to make close friends outside the team.

Roman Siyakin is a key player for the Red Meteors. A talented yet ambitious player, he takes defeats hard and strives to prove his worth to everyone (including himself). He often argues with his teammates, but is genuinely focused on results. A true handsome man, a virtuoso, and a star on the ice with a distinct acting talent. He's incredibly skilled, but overly conceited. He loves to show off in front of the crowd and feign a penalty or penalty against an opponent, which often leads to teamwork becoming secondary.

Taras Taranov is the captain of the Red Meteors team. A strong, menacing, and commanding leader, his main traits are forceful drive, physical strength, and absolute confidence in success. Due to his excessive straightforwardness and individualism, he sometimes forgets about teamwork, preferring to solve problems alone. Direct and forceful: On the ice, he carries himself like a true giant. His style of play is aggressive and intimidating, his main weapons being a powerful shot and enormous fists. Taras doesn't look for shortcuts, but literally "sweeps away" obstacles in his path. Not a strategic leader: His main weakness is his reluctance to think through tactics and develop complex team strategies. Because of this excessive straightforwardness, the Meteors often lose to more well-coordinated opponents. Authoritarian, but tolerant: Taras keeps the team in check, but is also willing to tolerate the antics and tricks of his teammates (for example, the charismatic Petya Khitryuk), understanding that their unconventional methods can bring results.

Petr / Petya Khitryuk is a defender for the Red Meteors team. A hyperactive, cunning, and daring teenager, he lives up to his name: on the field and during competitions, he constantly seeks out alternatives, isn't afraid to use illegal moves, and provoke opponents. He's the most unpredictable, eccentric, and inventive player. A true genius of "petty mischief" and tricks, he meticulously seeks out his opponents' weaknesses. His tricks teeter on the edge of the rules, but a comical set of circumstances often causes his cunning plans to fall apart at the most crucial moment.
