Biography


In 1959 Turchyn assembled a handball team of teenage girls, which in 1962 became HC Spartak Kyiv.[4] The club became 20-time Soviet champion (1969–1988) and 13-time winner of the EHF Champions League (1970–1973, 1975, 1977, 1979, 1981, 1983, 1985–1988).[1][5]

In 1965 he married Zinaida Stolitenko, a trainee 10 years his junior. They had a daughter Natalia (born 1971) and a son Mikhail (born 1983). Natalia played handball alongside her mother for Spartak Kyiv, while Mikhail went into basketball.[6] In his last years Turchyn suffered several heart attacks. He underwent a complex bypass surgery in Norway, and after that coached the Norwegian women's handball team for eight months.[6] He died of a heart attack during an EHF Cup match in Romania in 1993. After his death his wife took over his coaching positions with Spartak Kyiv and the Ukrainian national team.[1][7]
