The Russian Logging Championship has been held since 2013. Its mission is to increase the prestige of working professions, improve professional knowledge and working methods, and contribute to the improvement of skills. Traditionally, the Russian championship is held in two stages – at the regional and federal levels. The winners of the regional stage are nominated to participate in the national championship, and the winners of the national championship take part in the world championship. So, the winners of the Logger 2015 and the Logger 2016 will be included into the Russian national team to represent Russia at the 32nd World Logging Championship that will be held in 2016 in Poland.
About 30 Russian teams will take part in the Logger 2015. It is expected that the team of the Republic of Belarus will compete too.
