EXPERT OPINION 

ABOUT JUVENILE SPORTS 

«Victories do not arise by themselves. You have to start at a certain age. It’s great luck if a gifted child comes 

to a good coach. For the most promising children to reach the heights of professional sport, there should be 

“ 

a 

transparent system of their selection and support based on the updated professional standards for coaching, 

proper criteria for schools, and a number of other items», said the Chairman of the Russian Government D. 

A. Medvedev in his address to the Deputy Prime Ministers within the framework of the Concept of Training the 

Sports Reserve up to 2025 (http://www.1tv.ru). 

Medvedev added that at the Youth Olympic games held in Buenos Aires 6 – 16 October, the Russian team won 

59 medals, 29 of which were gold, and we were the first in team event. «This is, of course, a very good result, and 

it shows that we have a real Olympic reserve,» Medvedev said, noting that for the most promising to reach the 

top, there must be a transparent system of their training and selection. The concept of training sports reserve was 

proposed by the Ministry of Sports in April 2016. Its goal is to increase the level of athletes and the duration of their 

careers, as well as to strengthen the motivation of citizens to be engaged in physical activities. More than that, the 

document establishes requirements for organizations engaged in sports training (https://www.rbc.ru). 


STANISLAV POZDNYAKOV 

ON THE PREPARATION 

OF OLYMPIC RESERVE ATHLETES 

REFERENCE 

OF OLYMPIC RESERVE JOURNAL: 

Stanislav Pozdnyakov is an Olympic 

Champion in fencing, President 

of the Russian Olympic Committee 

– We are here at the fencing 

tournament “PRIX OF THE TWO- 

TIME OLYMPIC CHAMPION KARINA 

AZNAVURYAN” at the Olympic 

Reserve College No. 3, where young 

athletes are being grown up. How 

important is the system of such 

colleges and similar tournaments? 

– It is necessary to mention right 

away: to bring up one full-fledged real 

Olympic champion, tens of years and a 

thousand people are required. It is very 

important for us to build this vertical 

pyramid for the training of high-class 

athletes. The main task which is solved 



5

y the college of Olympic reserve 

is the centralization of the entire 

preparatory period, which our young 

athletes go through, having chosen 

sport as a profession. It is difficult to 

overestimate the importance of such 

sporting educational institutions, and 

they occupy a worthy place in the 

system of sports training. 

As for holding such competitions, 

the main goal is to motivate young 

people to win having in mind the 

example of successful great athletes. 

I know that in our country dozens 

of our great athletes, Olympic 

Champions hold such events. This 

is a very important tradition that 

continues and that we must keep on. 

This continuity of generations forms 

our large Olympic family. We have got 

what to be proud of and what to show 

our partners. 

TO BRING UP ONE FULL-FLEDGED 

REAL OLYMPIC CHAMPION, 

TENS OF YEARS AND A THOUSAND PEOPLE 

ARE REQUIRED. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT 

FOR US TO BUILD THIS VERTICAL PYRAMID 

FOR THE TRAINING 

OF HIGH-CLASS ATHLETES. 

– How important is the support 

of such competitions by large TV 

channels? 

– If we do only what is important 

to large TV channels, we can lose the 

big Olympic Sport. On the example 

of this kind of competitions, we must 

show that we have not only a media 

sporting events, such as hockey or 

football, but also Olympic sport. We 

have the sport we can be proud of. 

Today, the leaders of our country 

have set a task to increase the interest 

of the population in physical culture 

and sports. But believe me, if we focus 

on two or three media disciplines, 

we may lose everything else. You 

need to look for different formats of 

information presentation, and not 

necessarily they should be primetime 

broadcasts. 


HISTORY 

OF OLYMPIC RESERVE 

COLLEGE NO. 2 

On May 19, 1977 in Malaya Filevskaya street in Moscow a secondary sports boarding 

school (rowing) was opened. Anokhin Dmitry Leontyevich was appointed head of the 

boarding school. 

In 1989, the sports boarding school 

was transformed into the Moscow 

College of Olympic Reserve No. 2. 

In 2010 the school was reorganized into 

a state budgetary educational institution 

«Moscow Secondary Specialized College 

of Olympic Reserve No. 2 (technical 

school)» of MOSCOMSPORT. 

More than 70 honored masters 

of sports and international masters 

of sports, more than 650 masters of

work of Olympic College No. 2. Many 

students and graduates are winners 

and medalists of Olympic Games, 

World Championships and World 

Cups, European Championships and 

Cups, Championships and Cups of 

Russia. Most of the students are part 

of the national teams of the Russian 

Federation in Olympic sports. Pupils 

of the college have taken part in every 

winter and summer Olympic Games 

since 1988. Athletes of the College have 

participated in all Spartakiads of Russia, 

both summer and winter, making up a 

basis for the national team of Moscow. 

The system of organization of sports 

and educational activities of the school 

is aimed at providing the most favorable 

conditions for achieving high sports 

results. The educational process takes 

into account the intensity of the training 

regime, since according to the specific 

character of the educational institution, 

athletes have to spend a long time at 

sports competitions, training camps, 

the forms and methods of training 

include lectures and seminars, college 

credit system, advance consultations, 

individual work including remote forms 

of educational technologies. Teachers 

work on programs that provide the most 

effective learning process, introduce

Today, MSSUOR No. 2 of MOSCOMSPORT 

is preparing high-class athletes in 14 sports, 

namely: 

• rowing; 

• kayak-canoe; 

• bullet shooting; 

• triathlon;

At the past XXXI summer Olympics in 

Rio de Janeiro, the college was represented 

by 11 athletes. There is no doubt that all of 

them contributed to the team success of 

the Russian national team. Not each of them 

managed to conquer the Olympic pedestal, 

but we may say that in four years, many will 

undoubtedly succeed the way the present 

Olympic Champions did it.

SPORT SCORCHED 

BY THE WAR 

y the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the main sports University of the 

B 

country, the State Central Order of Lenin Institute of Physical Culture, had 

534 students, 115 professors, teachers and laboratory assistants, about 150 

maintenance staff. More than 200 students studied at the military science 

departent, which remained under special regulation within the whole war period as part of 

the fortified area of the Moscow military district. 

At the very beginning of the 

war, on June 27, 1941, the People’s 

Commissariat of Home Affairs (NKVD) 

issued an order to establish a training 

center for the preparation of special 

reconnaissance and sabotage units to 

work behind enemy lines. Senior major 

Pavel Sudoplatov was placed in charge. 

Very quickly came the understanding: 

there was critically not enogh 

staff for the outstanding works. Even 

if all district militia officers were enlisted 

and sent to the front. Sudoplatov 

made the decision to involve the most 

prepared young people. All sports societies 

of the country got the appeal: 

«Athletes, to the defense of the Motherland!» 

And the youth responded. From all 

over the country, athletes applied to 

volunteer. Famous champions, such 

as N. F. Korolev, the overall champion 

of the USSR in boxing, track-andfield 

athletes brothers Znamensky, 

weightlifters V. Krylov and N. Shatov, 

gymnast Victor Chukarin become 

special forces soldiers. 

During the first weeks of the war, 

422 people went to the front. Athletes 

fought in regular units of the Red 

Army and the Air Force, in partisan 

detachments and people’s militia. 

Soon the number of volunteers 

increased so much that it did not fit into 

the concept of separate reconnaissance 

and sabotage groups. By the order of 

the NKVD of October 2, 1941, the special 

groups were reorganized into a Separate 

Special Purpose Motorized Rifle Brigade. 

The brigade was directly subordinated 

to the People’s Commissioner of Home 

Affairs L. P. Beria. The famous “OMSBON” 

was born! 

151 students and 15 teachers 

volunteered to the “OMSBON” of the 

USSR. Already in late August 1941, 

infiltration of special units and groups 

into the enemy rear began with the

aim of carrying out reconnaissance 

and sabotage missions. 

For excellent military skill, for courage 

and valour seven students and teachers 

of the leading sports University of the 

country were awarded the title of Hero 

of the Soviet Union, namely: students 

Boris Galushkin, Oleg Smirnov, a 

graduate of 1941 Boris Belyaev, teacher 

Meshcheryakov M. M., students of the 

military science faculty Boris Kovalenko, 

Lev Kudakovsky, teacher N. S. Ugryumov.

Graduates of the Institute Vladimir 

Kolesnik and Gennady Nikitin are 

holders of the order of Glory, the 

highest soldier’s award. Student Vera 

Voloshina in 1994 was posthumously 

awarded the title of Hero of the Russian 

Federation. 

More than 150 students and teachers 

who took part in the Great Patriotic 

War were awarded military orders and 

medals. 74 students gave their lives 

defending the Motherland. A memorial 

complex on the territory of the 

University is dedicated to their memory. 

Remedial gymnastic was of great 

importance in restoring the health of 

wounded soldiers and commanders 

during the Great Patriotic War. The 

Institute brought up experts who 

during the Great Patriotic war set up 

all organizational and methodical part 

of remedial gymnastic in hospitals, all 

work was concentrated in their hands. 

During the war in 70 cities of the 

country, the students and teachers 

were working in the field of military 

and physical training of soldiers for 

the front: more than 340 thousand 

pre-conscripts were trained to master 

the skills of grenade throwing, ski 

marching, deep-water fording, handto-hand 

combat, passage of obstacles. 

In the evacuation in Sverdlovsk, 

teachers and students were considered 

to be mobilized to the labor front. They 

worked on the construction of the tankproduction 

plant, laid water pipelines 

necessary for the evacuated plants.

IN 1942, 25 SPECIALISTS GRADUATED FROM THE PHYSICAL 

CULTURE INSTITUTE, IN 1943 – THIRTY SPECIALISTS, 

IN 1944 – FIFTY, IN 1945 – FIFTY ONE SPECIALISTS. SO, 

IN TOTAL, 156 PEOPLE GRADUATED DURING THE WAR. 

NIKOLAI KOROLEV 

Between 1942 and 1945, 600 students 

and teachers were sent to 51 cities of 

the Soviet Union ruined by the Nazi 

occupation, to restore physical education 

organizations and train personnel for 

this work. In 22 cities, about 6,5 thousand 

military leaders from reserve officers 

were trained for schools. 

During the war, the Institute continued 

to educate specialists in physical 

culture and sports. In 1942, 25 specialists 

graduated from the Physical 

Culture Institute, in 1943 – thirty specialists, 

in 1944 – fifty, in 1945 – fifty 

one specialists. So, in total, 156 people 

graduated during the war.

manpower, equipment, ammunition 

and food. Five armored trains, 1232

The actions and tactics of the Brigade 

soldiers were carefully documented and 

studied. Based on that, the modern Special

SPORT IN PERSON 


OLYMPIC RESERVE REFERENCE: 

Aliya Mustafina, Honored Master of Sports 

of Russia. Two-time Olympic champion in 

parallel bars exercises, five-time Olympic 

medalist. Three-time World champion, 

five-time European champion, seven-time 

winner of the European Championships 

and nine-time winner of the World 

Championships. 

– You are already preparing for the 

third Olympic Games after you won 

the two previous ones. How difficult 

is it, where do you find motivation to 

stay in sports? 

– I have no motivation. Everything 

that I do now, I do only for myself. I like 

to train, I like to feel the body return to 

form. And then, I just wanted to try: is 

it possible after such a long break, after 

the birth of a child. In other words, I 

would not call it motivation. This is just a 

challenge for myself. 

– What was most difficult in 

returning? 

– It was hard to wait. When you 

have already gained something, it 

takes time to do next step and rise 

one level higher. Moreover, I had to 

restore the muscles, and this is not a 

quick process. For example, on a beam 

I did not lose balance, but muscle 

memory was almost completely gone. 

It took several months to restore: in 

September I started training and only 

by December I felt that I could start 

trying complex elements. Now it’s all 

over, but I’m still in no hurry. At my age, 

everything should be done properly, 

but not quickly. 

– What do you want now? Go to the 

level that you once had, or take a step 

forward? 

– Now, after all, the rules have changed 

quite a lot in gymnastics. For example, 

there used to be such a thing as special 

requirements – for each, and there were 

five of them, half a point was given. Now 

there are four of these requirements – 

the point has been removed that a jump 

off from the apparatus must necessarily 

have a complexity group D. That is, you 

can perform any jump off that you like, 

and this does not reduce the overall 

score. But the rules have changed for 

everyone, not just for me. For example, it 

doesn’t matter to me what kind of jump 

off to perform, and for someone who 

has problems with group D jumps off, it 

has become easier. If we talk about the 

complexity of the programs in general, 

I still do not do everything that I could 

do before. But by August I would like to 

restore all the previous difficulty. Oddly 

enough, the biggest difficulty I have with 

the bars. 

– How has your life changed after 

the birth of your daughter? 

– Everything has changed. Although 

I can’t say that it has become more 

difficult to train, because parents help 

a lot. Mom agrees to leave work and 

devote all her time to Alisa while I am 

at the training camp, and this, of course, 

greatly facilitates my life. You do not need 

to think constantly about where the 

child is, who is involved in it. Accordingly, 

on training days, I can afford not to be 

distracted by anything else but working 

in the gym. 

– But isn’t the fact that you cannot 

see your daughter every day stressful 

for you? 

– I take this as a fact: I train, make 

money. Including the fact that Alisa 

will have all the conditions to grow and 

develop, and my family won’t need 

anything. On Wednesday, when I have 

one training session, I definitely come 

home. The weekend is also completely 

devoted to the child. And besides, 

gymnastics is not eternal. 

– To what extent are you now 

participating in the preparation of 

your own training plans? 

– In a very big one. The coach knows 

that I always feel my abilities very good, 

so he completely trusts me. And he 

knows that in terms of discipline I do 

not need to be controlled. That’s why we 

discuss all the work together – there are 

no problems in it. 



– Is it easier to prepare for the third 

Olympic Games than for the first? 

– A lot. Age generally plays a big role 

in our sport. Young girls usually need 

to be forced to work. When you get 

older, you begin to understand your 

weaknesses, you begin to think how to 

eliminate them. In other words, the older 

an athlete becomes, the easier it is for a 

trainer to talk to him. 

– When did you last quarrel with 

the coach? 

– We do not quarrel with Sergey 

Valerievich (Starkin) at all. I can, of 

course, get angry at something, mumble, 

but it isn’t the trainer’s fault if I can’t do 

something. 

– Do you remember, what were 

your plans for the future after the 

London Olympics? 

– I really do not remember. There 

were no special plans, the only thing was 

not to end my career, to train further. 

But how, what and why – I was still too 

young to think about it. 

– After your second gold, won in 

Rio, you said that you had achieved 

everything you wanted. It turns out 

to some extent those words were 

crafty? 

– No, I did not dissemble. I have 

Olympic gold ... 

– Two! 

– Two. (Smiles.) Higher... I don’t even 

know what is higher. Now there is 

simply a lot of interest, plus I realized 

that I like just doing gymnastics, 

training, I like performing. Stand for the 

team, learn new elements. You know, 

all these aspects give me pleasure, so 

I continue.

FEDOR EMELIANENKO 


Fedor Emelianenko – four-time World 

champion in mixed martial arts – MMA 

in heavyweight according to Pride FC, 

two-time according to RINGS, twotime 

according to WAMMA, four-time 

World champion and nine-time 

Russian champion in combat sambo. 

Honored Master of Sports in Sambo and 

International Master of Sports in Judo. 

– We will talk about little Fedor, 

who once started doing sports. Did 

you come to sports by yourself? Why 

did you choose sambo? 

– In my childhood, probably every 

boy, every child dreamt of doing 

sports, all guys were engaged in one or 

another sports activity. I often went to 

my mother’s work, once a sambo coach 

there noticed me and offered to have a 

workout. With great pleasure and great 

enthusiasm, I started doing sambo. Our 

first club was located in a bomb shelter 

of a vocational school. This is how my 

sporting path started. 

– Boys of the 80s had their idols: did 

they try to be like anyone? What did 

they strive for? 

– Of course, we followed our 

athletes, our idols, of course, we 

dreamt. We learned all the information 

from newspapers, then there was no 

Internet. We kept newspaper clippings, 

hung on the walls and knew our 

PARENTS SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT ONE OUT OF A THOUSAND 

STUDENTS WILL GROW UP, OR ONE STAR, LET’S SAY, 

WILL LIGHT UP. THEREFORE, YOU SHOULD NOT LOOK FOR QUICK 

SUCCESS AND, PERHAPS, LOOK FOR SUCCESS AT ALL. 

FIRST OF ALL, THIS IS THE HEALTH OF THE CHILD. 

PLUS, OF COURSE, THE DESIRE OF THE CHILD HIMSELF 

TO DO ONE OR ANOTHER SPORT. 

heroes – sambo wrestlers, judokas. 

I also followed boxing. 

– For you, as for a beginner, what 

was the hardest thing, the most 

difficult? Did you force yourself to 

train? 

– I never forced myself to train. I did 

not walk to the club, I ran to the club with 

great desire. But for a long time there 

were no victories. Only after serving in 

the army did the bright victories, regular 

victories, stability, and the best result 

come. 

– Comparing the 80s and what we 

see now: do you think children’s sport 

is on the rise? 

– On the one hand, today there 

are many more sports complexes, 



sports clubs and schools, there are 

more specialists in the field of sports, 

but on the other hand, there are 

more temptations. If earlier we were 

all in the yard playing with balls or 

without balls, today you will not see 

it anywhere. Live communication is 

replaced by gadgets. 

– What can be done? How can 

we interest kids? What is lacking in 

modern children’s sports? 

– Parents need to develop love for 

sports in their children, action, limit use 

of the Internet, and pay more attention 

to the family. 

– What would you advise parents 

while choosing a kind of sport 

for a child? Most often it happens 

that parents tend to the so-called 

commercial sports, which in the future 

may bring some income for kind, 

for example, football, hockey. Other 

sports seem to be suffering from this. 

How to choose the right sport? 

– Parents should understand that 

one out of a thousand students will 

grow up, or one star, let’s say, will light 

up. Therefore, you should not look 

for quick success and, perhaps, look 

for success at all. First of all, this is the 

health of the child. Plus, of course, the 

desire of the child himself to do one or 

another sport. 

– Today we are at the Russian mixed 

martial arts championship. Mixed 

martial arts and children’s sports – are 

these concepts compatible? 

– Compatible, of course. Our children 

in any martial art begin to practice at the 

age of 10, and competitive activity begins 

at 12. A coach qualified by the MMA 

Union provides insurance, protection 

against technics and blows. Special 

equipment is used. And, of course, fights 

are held according to children’s rules. 

– If parents want the child to 

engage in mixed martial arts, where 

should they go? 

– In any kind of martial arts, boxing, 

sambo, judo, you need to go to an 

accredited specialist, a coach who 

has passed a special course, who has 

permission to work with children. In our 

case, he must be accredited by the MMA 

Union. 

– Do children have their own 

competition calendar? 

– Yes, of course, everything is like 

in adults: Championship of Moscow, 

the Region competitions, Russian 

competitions. From the age of 16 they 

already go to International competitions. 

– Will we see Fedor Emelianenko 

tomorrow the same as today? 

– I hope that I’ll be the same as today, 

a family man, together with my friends 

and relatives.

JULIA BARSUKOVA 


Yulia Barsukova – Honored Master of Sports, Olympic 

champion in rhythmic gymnastics, deputy director 

of the State Budgetary Professional Educational 

Institution “Moscow Secondary Specialized College of 

Olympic Reserve No. 1” of Moscomsport 

– The European Rhythmic Gymnastics 

Championship has finished, everyone 

is happy and congratulate each 

other. Our athletes have once again 

proved to be the best. What is ahead? 

Will the girls have any break? 

– At the European Championship 

we took all the Gold medals and also 

Silver (smiles). The girls performed 

very well, especially the youth team 

in group exercises. Dina, Arina, Sasha 

performed peerlessly. I watched them 

and was proud of our team. It’s nice 

that in our country there are such 

magnificent children, talented, strong, 

and they represent our country at the 

championships with great pride. A 

short rest is ahead, then – preparation 

for the first in the history of rhythmic 

gymnastics World championship 

among juniors, which will be held in 

Moscow. 

– The first world championship and 

the first competition will be in a new 

beautiful palace. 

– We have not seen it yet, but we 

imagine what Irina Alexandrovna can 

do. Something we saw in the news, what 

it would look like, a roof in the shape 

of a gymnastic ribbon. What is inside 

will be a surprise to everyone. I think 

everyone will be delighted, because Irina 

Aleksandrovna cannot do badly. 

– How will the Hall be used after the 

World Championship? 

– The national teams of Russia will 

train there. Technically, the palace can 

be transformed for other purposes, such 

as concerts and competitions in other 

sports. This is a multisports complex. 

– Some competitions replace others 

with just crazy speed. How do girls 

withstand this schedule? They still 

need to learn. How do they manage 

everything ? 

– We have to keep up everything. And 

you need to learn. Foolish people, let’s 

say, are not needed in sports. To perform 

well, you need to be an educated 

person. We must have time to train 2 

times a day and study. The pupil of the 

Moscow College of Olympic Reserve No. 

1 Nastya Guzenkova has time. She takes 

tasks, prepares them, comes, passes and 

receives new ones. I myself trained like 

that. Everyone has time. This is normal. 

– To be precise, what is the schedule 

of the Olympic champion? What time 

does a regular day begin and end? 

– The girls get up at 7 in the morning. 

At 7:15, warm up begins and of course 

jogging. At 9 o’clock – a choreography 

lesson. At 11-12 o’clock, everyone has 

different schedule, morning training 

begins. Then – evening training, general 

physical fitness, and the working day 

ends. Almost all day is at work. In order 

to become a good athlete, to perform 

successfully at the top starts – World 

and European championships, especially 

the Olympic Games, you need to work 

a lot. From morning till night. Now the 

rhythmic gymnastics program is very 

difficult, it’s a great difficulty, requiring 

a large number of repetitions during 

trainings in order to perform stably, 

without loss of objects. 

– How often are gymnasts at home, 

and are they there at all? Are parents 

involved in the education of athletes, 

or are they taken out of this process? 

– Parents must be involved. To help 

morally – firstly, and also help how 

they can, especially if the child came to 

Moscow from the region. Parents come 

on weekends, or, conversely, the athlete 

is allowed to go home. Parents often 

move with their child to the capital, rent 

an apartment, or somehow solve this 

issue to be with their child. Everything is 

very serious. Raising a champion in any 

discipline is a big, big work of a large 

number of people. A talented athlete 

must listen to the coach so that they 

go in unison, they are helped by highly 

qualified specialists: choreographers, 

doctors, psychologists, and parents must 



always keep up with us. Only then all 

together we will make a good fit athlete. 

– It’s no secret that the level of 

our gymnasts is very high. What is 

more difficult for them: to win the 

championship of Russia or Europe? 

– It’s complicated. There are a 

lot of talented children in Russia. 

It’s very difficult to win the Russian 

Championship, because there is a 

tough selection. And the European 

Championship is also difficult, because 

other countries do not rest, but also 

work on and develop, become better 

and even sometimes beat us, and this, 

unfortunately, happens when we make 

mistakes. We have no right to make a 

mistake. We must be 100% ready for the 

competition. 

– Where was it easier for you to 

perform, abroad or in your country? 

– Abroad. It was easier for me to 

perform abroad. I do not know how to 

explain it. The responsibility is the same 

both at the Russian championship and at 

the World championship. The same fans, 

the same tension. But it was easier for me 

to perform in Europe. 

– In Russia, there is a network 

of children’s sports schools, clubs, 

secondary schools – a whole factory 

for training champions. Is there a 

shortage of young talents now? Do 

you have a desire to carpet the whole 

country? 

– That’s too much! We can’t make 

gymnasts from everyone (laughs). Today 

there is a very big flow of children in 

rhythmic gymnastics. Very big! And, 

unfortunately, not everyone can become 

a champion. 

At the same time, rhythmic gymnastics 

also educates, develops, and teaches, so 

you should be engaged in this beautiful 

sport, especially girls. This is posture, and 

behavior, and self-presentation. Girls 

grow up beautiful, slim, musical. 

– Are our girls talented only in 

rhythmic gymnastics? 

– There are girls in our team who 

draw, sing. Our Nastya Guzenkova 

draws very beautifully. When I saw her 

work, I did not believe it. She draws very 

beautifully, she is a very talented girl. 

She is very intelligent, she is interested in 

everything. It is very important that she 

does not focus only on sports, wants to 

study well, trains well and at the same 

time is interested in something else. 

– Do gymnasts speak English? How 

do they communicate with peers? 

– On their own. Some speaks better, 

some worse. Basically they know English, 

understand and can speak, sometimes 

they are afraid to make mistakes and to 

say something incorrectly. Some day, I 

think, they will speak English well. 

– You graduated from the Olympic 

Reserve College №1. Do you remember 

those times? 

– Of course, I do. I had no difficulties. I 

remember the teachers who were always 

ready to help. Everything worked for 

athletes. The main focus was on sports. 

The rest was adapted to us. 

– What would you wish to beginning 

athletes who are taking their first 

steps on the carpet? 

– First of all, health. To be able to 

exercise, you need good health. Love to 

the work that you are starting to do, the 

people around you who help you. Do not 

forget to thank people who spend a lot 

of time with you and give a significant 

part of their lives to each athlete who 

comes to them. To love what you are 

doing. 



51


– We traditionally ask our 

conversationalists this question and 

you are the first who speaks about 

love, about love to work, to a coach. 

– This is very important. It’s not 

enough to do this. You must let this in 

your life. You must love this. Sport is a 

part of life. You must be inside sport or 

study and be thankful to people. Often, 

the coach devotes more time to students 

than to his children. And the student 

spends more time with the coach than 

with the parents. You should never 

forget this. No great and talented athlete 

can make himself on his own. This was 

done by a group of people, specialists 

who went to the pedestal with him and 

worked together. This is the only way. No 

talented man is an island. It can also be a 

very good coach, but if a talented athlete 

do not come to him then the coach will 

not teach himself. 

– Should there be luck in sport? 

– Luck and fortune should be. I also 

understood that. I established as an 

athlete. I got lucky. My first coach was 

Silaeva Vera Grigorievna. Then I came 

to Irina Aleksandrovna Viner-Usmanova. 

Vera Grigoryevna and Irina Alexandrovna 

play a huge role in my life to this day. 

At the moment I work next to Irina 

Alexandrovna. She is my teacher, my 

support. I found my athlete. Today I train 

a girl who is very talented. But without us 

she won’t manage, she won’t go far, no 

matter how talented she is. It may seem 

surprising that at first no one imagined 

that she was talented. Talent is revealed 

gradually. When I started doing sports, I 

had no idea that I wanted to become an 

Olympic champion or a World champion. 

Everything came gradually. At first I was 

going to train until graduation. I got into 

the national team. There was a desire to 

perform at the European Championship. 

I worked for this. I got, performed, 

won something, something not. Then 

I wanted to go to the World Cup. The 

same. And, of course, who does not want 

to go to the Olympics? Every athlete 

wants. 

– Do you remember at what age 

this “want” appeared? How old were 

you? 

– 11 years. I started to do gymnastics 

late. At first there was figure skating. 

Now children are taken to gymnastics 

from 3 years. 

– When are they selected to the 

national team? 

– At 10–11 years old, they already 

participate in competitions. We look at 

physical data, coordination, dexterity, 

and also appearance is very important. 

We are judged by appearance. Appearance 

and a smile play big role. Everything 

should be like this, and the head 

should work well, otherwise nothing 

will work. 

– We wish you victory! We 

supported, support and will support 

you! 

– Thank you so much! We will try 

and work hard so not to let down our 

country and win as many gold medals as 

possible. 



ARSEN FADZAYEV 


Arsen Fadzaev, two-time Olympic 

champion, vice president of the Russian 

Wrestling Federation, member of the 

Federation Council from the Republic of 

North Ossetia-Alania. 

– Arsen Suleimanovich, you travel a 

lot around the country, competitions, 

communicate with young athletes. 

When and how do you do everything? 

– Honestly, I have a complicated 

schedule. To combine work in the Federation 

Council, where I represent interests 

of the Republic of North Ossetia- 

Alania, and at the same time to be a vice 

president of the Russian Wrestling Federation, 

where I lead the freestyle wrestling 

direction, there are many teams 

there: the main, youth, junior and two 

teenagers, of course, it’s complicated. I 

have to keep up everywhere, and I do it 

with pleasure. There is a lot of work. Recently 

there was a governmental meeting 

in the Federation Council where 

the Russian Minister of Sports Pavel 

Anatolyevich Kolobkov gave a speech. I 

have to get involved into the processes 

taking place in the sport of the highest 

achievements, understand the whole 

variety of sports, train the national 

teams of Russia, and deal with existing 

problems. The good news is that the 

teams that are preparing for the Olympic 

Games, which are just around the 

corner, are provided with everything 

necessary. The Russian Olympic Committee, 

the Ministry of Sports and sports 

federations is a good coordinated team 

led by Olympic champions, so it’s easy 

for us and we have complete mutual 

understanding both in the preparation 

of national teams and in the holding of 

major national and international competitions. 

– Speaking of wrestling and 

continuing the topic of the upcoming 

Olympic Games in Tokyo, the question 

of potential participants in the 

upcoming competitions arises. Is the 

core of the team visible? 

– This work is ongoing. We have a 

very serious coaching staff headed by 

Dzhambulat Ilyich Tedeev, who has 

been the leader of the national team 

for more than 10 years, and as a result – 

very good success. I spoke about this 

in the Federation Council. In previous 

year 2018, the Russians won 17 golden 

medals of the world championships in 

various sports, 10 of them are on the 

account of Greco-Roman and Freestyle 

wrestlers. It’s about 60%. This is a great 

success for the coaching staff, which 

is recognized as one of the best in the 

World. We hope that by the main start 

of the four-year anniversary the teams 

will be brought to the best shape. 

Today, of course, there are leaders in 

the national teams, and there is a whole 

year to decide about the members of 

the Olympics. Ahead is the European 

Games in Minsk, the Championship of 

Russia in Sochi, then – the World Cup 

in Kazakhstan. By the end of the year, 

by 75% we will understand who will 

be performing at the Olympics. The 

remaining 25% will be determined 

by the Russian Championship, which 

will be preceded by the Ivan Yarygin 

Tournament in January and the 

European Championship. 

– Everyone understands that the 

core of the national team will be made 

of experienced eminent wrestlers. Do 

young people have a chance to get 

into the Olympic team? 

– Each coach in the national team 

dreams of new young stars, promising, 

passionate, fast and brazen in a good 

way. Of course, we are waiting for them, 

we are watching the youth team how 

they finish the year. There is a chance. 

Remember the most titled freestyle 

wrestler, three-time Olympic champion 

Buvaisar Saitiev. He won his first world 

championship at age of 20, the Olympics 

at age of 21. At that time, I was the head 

coach of the national team and invited a 

promising fighter to the training camp. 

Arranged a try. Buvaisar won it. I took 

responsibility and put him into the team. 

From Atlanta, Buvaysar returned as a 

World champion. He convincingly won, 

and after 12 years no one could stop him. 

– Do young wrestlers have enough 

starts to prove themselves? 

– The World championship among 

youth is a good start. Then we get 

the guys into an adult team. From 

September, when the World Cup will 

end, there will be almost a year to the 

Games – 11 months, which means that 



53


there is time to watch them in action 

at major national and international 

competitions. 

– At the end of June, the European 

Games will be held in Minsk. What do 

you expect from the team? 

– From the team we always expect 

success. We have a good habit of 

winning. The Soviet team, the Russian 

team, especially in our sport, have always 

won, always been a champion. When 

Ivan Sergeyevich Yarygin was the head 

coach of the national team and then 

the president of the federation, he said 

this: “We can win, we can lose. But we 

can only lose when we win not enough 

gold. ” We won 9 out of ten gold medals 

at the European Championship! This is 

1988, Manchester, 10 weight categories, 

9 gold and 1 silver medal. Wow! At the 

World Cup we won seven out of ten gold 

medals. 

The American team at that time was 

very strong. Then was a strong drop. 

Guys like Dave Schultz, Paul Ratner in 

heavyweight, John Smith are worldclass 

stars. When their time was gone, 

the team lost its position for many years. 

Now the Americans have a good team 

again, so it’s not serious to discount it. 

Today, world competition is very strong. 

– Can’t we have such recessions? Is 

the bench long? Youth, juniors? 

– Our training is structured this way: 

from 15–16 years, we are tracking young 

men. Youth European Games, World 

Championships and Europe. They already 

show themselves at major international 

competitions. Strongly gifted guys 

are already visible at this age. Therefore, 

we follow them, fixed trainers in the national 

team and in the regions purposefully 

monitor them. 

– Does Andzor Tembotov lead this 

age? 

– Yes. Tembotov leads a group of 

trainers of this age. 

– Between youth do some regions 

stand out, or are the guys more or less 

the same, and there are no obvious 

favorites? 

– There are favorites, they were and 

will be. I will not be the first to name 

Ossetia, I will name Dagestan, because my 

friends will be offended (smiles). These 

are the two main republics competing 

in the country today. And young men, 

and youth, and adults. Next are Yakutia, 

Krasnoyarsk, Moscow Region, Chechnya, 

Kabardino-Balkaria, Buryatia and so on. 

– In early April, the Championship 

of Russia in freestyle wrestling in 

memory of Kazbek Dedegkaev was 

held in Vladikavkaz. Such competitions 

are a check not only of the guys, 

but also of the judiciary, the work of 

the federation and the organizing 

committee. What did these competitions 

show besides the fact that the 

guys performed well and got into the 

Russian national team? Do we have 

problems? 

– There are always problems, they are 

solved. Competitions were held at the 

highest level. Thanks to David Musulbes! 

He was organizing these competitions. 

The Federation is the main, let us say so, 

person conducting competitions on the 

territory of Russia at the international, 

all-Russian and republican levels. All 

these tournaments are held under the 

auspices of the federation. In turn, the 

federation transfers the authority to 

conduct competitions to the organizing 

committee. In the case of Vladikavkaz, 

we transferred the authority to organize 

the championship to David Musulbes. 

He is a professional and has experience 

in organizing such tournaments. Not 

every athlete has organizational abilities, 

but he has. Therefore, we had no doubt 

and were pleasantly surprised that the 

tournament exceeded our expectations. 

The heads of the Republic of North 

Ossetia-Alania and South Ossetia 

attended the championship and also 

praised the level of organization. 

– The tournament was held in a new 

format: five mats, two competition 

days. How did they stand it? 

– The pace was good. After we 

discussed the format, we came to the 

conclusion that it is good, but may not 

assimilate. With such a large number of 

participants, it takes at least 3 days to 

conduct. The tournament was beautiful: 

a huge hall, 5 mats, a good review for the 

audience. Just beauty! 



– Was your audience interest also 

held? 

– The tournament was attended by 

Soviet sports veterans – the legendary 

Soviet Olympic team of 1988. 

– Who needed this more, you or the 

audience? 

– I think we all, and the children, too. 

The children saw how veterans of Soviet 

and Russian sports were honored, that 

we do not forget them. I think that they 

will remember it, and someday they 

themselves will organize such meetings. 

– At the end of the main tournament, 

the feast of struggle continued, and 

the children went on the mats. 

– A lot of children: more than 600. Passions 

ran high. I think this idea is right. 

Children need to compete in such conditions, 

in a large hall where elders competed 

yesterday, to imbue the spirit of 

adult competition and struggle. There 

was a live broadcast of the competitions, 

and the spectators, who for various reasons 

could not attend the tournament, 

had the opportunity to see the battles in 

real time. 

I’m already thinking of asking David 

to organize one of the major international-level 

tournaments in Moscow in 

December. I don’t want to reveal all the 

cards yet. I hope everything works out. 

– Tell us about your brainchild, 

wrestling club «Alan». It is created 

by your own from scratch. Pupils of 

the club reached the highest sports 

peak – the Olympic Games. Does the 

club work? 

– Today the club works in a different style. 

When the work was just beginning, the club 

was the prototype of a sports boarding 

school, and the pupils lived, trained and 

spent the night under the supervision of 

trainers at a sports base. It was a year-round 

gathering. Today it’s not. The guys live at 

home, spend the night at home, come to 

the club to train. This system, of course, does 

not quite justify itself. The best system is 

when the athletes are at the training camp 

year-round, and day and night under the 

supervision of coaches, when they warm up 

at 8 o’clock and have lights out at 23 o’clock, 

then the results are completely different. 

A lot of Olympians came out of this club. 

And Gatsalov, and Aimazov, and many 

other outstanding athletes and Olympic 

champions. 

– It turns out that the club worked 

like a school of Olympic reserve. You 

yourself graduated from the Moscow 

School of Olympic Reserve No. 1, 

transferred your experience to other 

soil, and it turned out to be successful? 

– Yes. However, this club was the first 

professional in the Russian Federation; it 

was not created for budget money. This 

is a sponsorship project that has worked 

for over 20 years. The club works further, 

but according to a different scheme. 

I will not hide, there is a great desire to 

go back and reboot the system. For the 

guys, for the soul. This is a good thing. 

– Are you a man of happy sports 

fate? Have you achieved everything 

you dreamed about? 

– I am a happy person in sports. I will 

not dissemble, I was very worried when 

the Soviet team did not go to the 1984 

Olympic Games. 

– Could there be a third gold medal? 

– It should have been, because in 

those years the rivals were weaker. 

– Cannot golden wrestling shoes 

replace the Olympic medal? 

– Please don’t get me wrong. I 

prepared for the Olympic Games, in 

1983 I became the world champion, and 

the person who becomes 15th at the 

World Cup wins the Olympic Games next 

year, where I do not go. Instead of it in 

Bulgaria, I won Commonwealth Games. 

The same American at the World Cup in 

1985 becomes the 17th. Golden wrestling 

shoes is the main award that reassures me.

ALEXEY SVIRIN 


Aleksey Vladimirovich Svirin, Honored Master 

of Sports of Russia, Olympic champion in 

rowing, president of the Russian Rowing 

Federation, deputy director for sports training 

at the Moscow State Sports and Public 

Health Organization Moscow Secondary 

Specialized College of Olympic Reserve No. 2, 

Moscomsport. 



– Alexei, you are an Olympic 

champion, you have many awards. 

Do you often think that something 

planned did not come true, in 

something you did not have time to 

realize yourself? 

– Such thoughts attend me 

occasionally. The gold Olympic medal 

was won at my first Olympics. Then 

there were two more tries, but they were 

unsuccessful. Sometimes I think that 

maybe after the first Olympics it was 

worth to stop and try myself in some 

other directions, to choose a different 

trajectory for the development of life. 

After that, always come thoughts that life 

is determined not only by appearances 

at the Olympic Games, and of course, 

this is daily work, and today’s labor 

activity in the field of physical education 

and sports confirms that relations with 

sports would not end with that first 

Olympics and victory. The summit was 

subdued. If it was 2005 or 2012, life 

some short period, then this is one story. 

When professional activity is connected 

with one and a half decades of work 

in the national team of the country 

and, accordingly, with tension, there 

is no strong desire to pick up oars and 

perform at some competitions. The 

International Rowing Federation is very 

active in promoting and supporting all 

sorts of competitions among veterans: 

European and World Championships. 

Two years after completing my sports 

career, I performed at the European 

Championship among veterans at the 

top of my abilities, and that was enough 

for me. Who knows, maybe I will return 

to this activity. 

– What work brings more pleasure? 

Work as an athlete or the one you are 

doing now? Are they comparable? 

– I head the federation relatively 

recently, the third year. I observe 

the movement of athletes and try to 

and won medals of the highest dignity, 

so in the same way in today’s realities for 

our country, for us there are practically 

no restrictions. It is necessary to work, 

work with the same dedication, selfsacrifice, 

and accordingly, everything 

can be achieved! 

– Which countries are leading in 

rowing today? 

– Today, the leaders are Englishspeaking 

countries: Great Britain, 

Australia, New Zealand recently took 

the lead, America and, of course, Italy 

and Germany have historically been and 

are at the moment. These countries at 

all international competitions, from the 

European Championship to 19 years 

and ending with the Olympic Games, 

are in the pool of the first six and share 

team places among themselves. At 

international starts, we win 2-3 medals 

and balance on the verge of the end of 

the first ten and the beginning of the 

second. 

ONCE, AS A VERY YOUNG BOY, AT THE AGE OF 7 

I FIRST CAME TO THE SPORTS SECTION, AND STILL REMAIN IN 

SPORTS. I TRIED MYSELF IN SEVERAL SPORTS, STARTING WITH 

VOLLEYBALL, THEN TABLE TENNIS, FENCING, AIRCRAFT MODELING, 

FOOTBALL, AND FOR A FAIRLY LONG PERIOD OF TIME, 

ALMOST 6 YEARS, WAS ENGAGED IN SKI RACES. 

would still be connected with sports. 

Once, as a very young boy, at the age of 7 

I first came to the sports section, and still 

remain in sports. I tried myself in several 

sports, starting with volleyball, then 

table tennis, fencing, aircraft modeling, 

football, and for a fairly long period of 

time, almost 6 years, was engaged in ski 

races. 

– After rowing, did you ever think 

that you could be successful in any 

other sport? 

– Of course not. In fact, there are 

people who, after fairly long rowing 

classes at a fairly mature age, perform 

smoothly or with some interruption in 

veteran competitions and do not finish 

this active competitive activity for a 

long time. It seems to me that this is 

already some kind of story of satisfying 

one’s unmet ambitions. I was lucky 

to fulfill myself rowing. Plus, when a 

professional activity is associated with 

compare what is happening with my 

story in order to form rational decisions 

in my mind, to help athletes do not 

make the mistakes that were once 

made by me. I am trying to help today’s 

generations who are actively performing 

in the international arena. For each age, 

there is a story that defines goals and 

objectives, achievements. There was 

an opportunity to engage actively and 

perform at competitions, and this was 

fulfilled. Today, accordingly, adulthood 

has passed, and there is another activity 

that takes place with great pleasure. 

There are a lot of problems in rowing, 

and we always compare ourselves 

today, at the moment I’m talking not 

only about myself, but about the rowing 

community, with the Soviet team, who 

was unconditional leader. Now we are in a 

different state, much weaker, but I’m sure 

that as once being an athlete and united 

in a certain team with certain athletes, 

coaches and specialists, we could win 

– What are the next starts for the 

national team? 

– European Championship U19 in 

Germany, then – European Championship 

in Switzerland. At the same time, the 

Grand Moscow Regatta will be held on the 

Rowing Canal in Moscow. These are the 

main upcoming starts. Next – the world 

championship, it is traditional, annual. 

This year it will be different that it will 

be necessary for us to win the maximum 

number of Olympic licenses there in order 

to perform at the Olympic Games in 2020. 

It’s a very important year. 

– The formula for success for you is 

talent, work, luck? What should be on 

the first place? 

– There are universal sports, and there 

are sports that are defined by physical 

and anthropometric data. In game 

sports, such as volleyball and basketball, 

there are positions where play not so 

tall athletes, this is an exception to the 

rule. So is the same with us. Since 1996, 

the Atlanta Olympics, there have been 

lightweight athletes in rowing, both men 

and women. They are determined by the 

maximum weight. At each competition, 

before each race they are weighed. Men 

70 kg, women 59 kg alone and 57 kg in 

two. They are weighed and, accordingly, 

compete with equals. Today, the trend is 

that the international federation and the 

Olympic Committee want to leave this 

practice.

SERGEY SVETLOV 


Sergey Svetlov – Soviet hockey player, Olympic 

champion, Honored Master of Sports of the USSR, 

head coach of HC Admiral. 

The 83rd World Hockey Championship 

in 2019 takes place in Slovakia in the 

cities of Bratislava and Kosice. 

– Sergey Alexandrovich, the 

Russian team arrived at the sports 

palace, it’s a bit more than an hour 

before the start of the semifinals. 

We play with the Czechs. Is “Red car» 

crushing? 

– It’s our old good name, which we 

once won with our successes. I am very 

pleased that this «Red Car», as a lot of 

people say today, is being reborn and 

worthily bears the honor of our country. 

– Before each championship, 

there are conversations, disputes, 

discussions, who will arrive, which 

links they will join, and whether 

young people will play. Is it possible 

at a young age to win the World Cup? 

– It is possible. We always look 

ahead. Young people grow well when 

good masters are nearby. Therefore, it 

is necessary to give young children the 

opportunity to gain some experience, 

to prove themselves. There are a lot 

of talented young guys. At the right 

moment and at the right time, if you 

notice a young promising player and 

invite him to play at a higher level, then 

this is not only better for him, but also for 

the country, for the coach, for the team. 

You need to see the future in any sport. 

– How is the selection of talents 

carried out and the system of training 

young athletes for national teams 

built? 

– It’s hard to say for sure. Preparation 

starts from the very first levels. There is 

a club competition system. It prepares 

children from regions, areas and brings 

to next, higher level. There is a coaching 

staff that is engaged in selection work. 

Promising players playing in their clubs 

are on the watch list of specialists, they 

are invited to the national teams of different 

ages: youth, junior teams, they 

also prove themselves and continue 

to grow step by step. It turns out to be 

sports life selection. It so happens that 

not everyone gets into the national team 

at some age, but they have the opportunity 

to prove themselves in Russian 

tournaments. It is the competitive process 

that reveals all the players, talents 

who attract attention. Nowadays there 

are many selection coaches who travel 

around the country and watch the guys. 

Many agents who earn money this way. 

They sign contracts with young hockey 

players and try more and more often to 

offer them to coaching staff to watch, 

invite them to training camps, individual 

tournaments. So step by step, starting 

from a young age, the guys reach the 

first team of the country. 

– From a young age? 

– This is a relative concept. At 8-10 

years – it is often difficult to say something 

about the future. A child of 8-10 years old 

can be very talented for his age, stand 

out among his peers, and then the game 

will not work or interest will be lost. At 

the age of 8–10 years, it is difficult to say 

that the boy will be a master, get into 

the first team or become the Olympic 



champion. More precise forecasts can be 

made a little later – at the age of 14–16, 

when the athlete goes through all the 

stages of preparation, and you can see 

how the guy develops and grows. Again, 

I repeat: no matter what we say and give 

the guys advances, it all depends on the 

athlete personally. There is a talent, there 

is an opportunity, which means that they 

need to develop their talent further, not 

being satisfied with the small that exists 

today. Today is a difficult time in terms of 

self-training. You have to limit yourself 

in something, overcome it, create 

complexity for yourself, so that not only 

skill is sharpened, but also character. 

Going to a high level and having skill, 

quality technical preparedness and 

a weak character, many guys do not 

achieve anything. 

– The excitement around children’s 

hockey does not stop. Parents lead 

their children in all imaginable and 

inconceivable ways to practice. Such 

passions are around! Children fight on 

the ice, parents in the stands! Do we 

need such hockey? 

– I am against such hockey. It’s hard to 

say exactly what this is connected with. I 

think that a club where there is children’s 

and youth hockey should establish a 

correct dialogue with parents. Today 

we hear a lot and know that someone 

gives money, places are bought, and 

this is true, it is real. Parents get into 

children’s hockey very much. And when 

a parent pays money, for example, to a 

coach, wants to put his son in the top 

five or higher, and, unfortunately, there 

are such facts at the moment, I would 

like to alter this. Such “care” only spoils 

the child, this is not a help to the child, 

because he receives a ready-made place 

for which he did not fight, did not show 

character and, perhaps, even received it 

undeservedly. This moment is not sporty. 

This is the main problem. Ambitions and 

fights come from how it is, I give money, 

but my child does not play, Why? This 

should not be in children’s hockey. Only a 

sporting principle should rule. Therefore, 

in work with parents in schools, clubs, 

the correct formulation of the training 

process should be pursued. The coach 

must make decisions on his own, and 

only the best must play higher. In team 

sports it is more difficult to determine 

which is the strongest of the 20 players, 

whom to put in the top five, correctly 

create a threesome or a pair of defenders, 

so that the players harmoniously 

complement each other, so that there 

is a picture of the game, joint common 



59


actions. These small nuances should 

be decided by the coaching staff. The 

financial assistance of parents to the club 

or individual coaches makes it difficult to 

select the best players in the top five, the 

best teams and national teams in a clean, 

correct and sporting way. 

– In Soviet times, the boys had a 

“Golden Puck”. It can probably be 

called a children’s league. Is there 

anything similar now? 

– There is. Hockey exists in the yards. 

In Moscow, this is especially noticeable. 

Hockey boxes, football fields, universal 

sports fields are being built. Maybe “Puck” 

is not as popular as it was in our time. In 

our days, the yard was different. The yard 

raised us, we grew up in the yard. We 

didn’t have telephones, so we did nothing 

except games in the yard. And we ran and 

jumped. It was interesting in the yard, 

there was life, and everyone was busy. This 

is comparable to general aerobic training 

– versatile training for a child who grew 

up on soccer, hockey, volleyball, “Chizhik- 

Pyzhik game”and hopscotch. Our yard 

lived, it was very athletic, and the children 

were better developed than now. Today – 

one hour or two hour training a day, the 

rest of the time – school, homework, 

computer, phone, and all this in a sitting 

position. As a result, the child goes in for 

sports an hour or two a day, maybe once 

a week, two or three times. Therefore, his 

own development, aerobic training is 

very narrow. A sports yard is necessary, 

and there is movement in this direction. 

“Golden Puck” competitions are held, 

hockey boarding schools are organized 

at clubs. In St. Petersburg, Kazan, Ufa 

and other cities, they already exist. Well, 

of course, it is necessary that a child at 

the initial stage develops not only in one 

chosen sport, but also goes out into the 

yard to move around and play. Modern 

children lack basic mobility and overall 

coordination, so from time to time I give 

my athletes a basketball or soccer ball 

and they play basketball or soccer. No 

other way. 

– Let’s talk about adult children 

who play the puck at night. 

– Do you mean the Night Hockey 

League? 

– Does anything like this exist in the 

world? 

– All countries have their own 

tournaments. Sports veterans gather 

and play hockey. I take off my hat in front 

of our Night Hockey League and have 

great respect for it! It is played by people 

who have never been involved in sports 

at all, who do not have the necessary 

coordination. They go on skates, pick 

up a club and play hockey! This is what 

popularization means, this is what sport 

means, which is loved throughout the 

country. Our adult boys and girls, get 

tired after work, chase the puck, play, 

train, make progress. It is surprising how 

people who have no idea go out to play, 

and they do something. 

– You said about the girls. Is hockey 

a women’s business? 

– The girls have already taken 

everything from us (laughs). They are 

already everywhere: they lift the bar, and 

fight, and do boxing. At the same time, 

men come to seemingly primordially 

female sports: synchronized swimming, 

rhythmic gymnastics. Life is changing, 

we are switching roles. Seriously, I believe 

that any sport makes it possible to reveal 

oneself and show one’s best qualities, 

regardless of whether you are a woman 

or a man. At the same time, we are all 

people and live in society. When you live 

as your team, you also prepare yourself 

for life in society: you communicate, 

fight, compete, work somewhere with 

your elbow, and this is a normal life. You 

may not become a great athlete, but in 

life this school will be useful for you. The 

character, mood, the right way of life, the 

order and discipline that sport gives you 

remain with you for life. If girls want to 

prove themselves in hockey – I am for 

it! Our hockey players are very beautiful 

and interesting girls! Hockey does not 

destroy them, but helps to be what they 

want to become, to prove themselves 

in hockey. The Universiade has recently 

passed, we were supporting our girls. 

And, with God’s help, our girls will do the 

same as our guys! 

– You are Olympic champion, World 

and European champion. How did you 

succeed? Maybe something was left 

unfinished, and you wanted to win 

something else? Have you fulfilled all 

your sporting dreams? 

– That doesn’t happen, I guess. Any 

person, especially an athlete, reaching 

some heights, thinks that where he 

had previously lost, he could have won. 

Incompleteness in athlete’s life always 

exists. I live by the principle – if you 

do not have a goal, idea or thought, 

then you have stopped growing, and 

your life has ended. Therefore, we must 

constantly grow, try to be better, set 

goals and achieve them. If you won and 

think that you don’t need more, then 

you can say: “That’s it, you’re dead!” I 

exaggerate it, of course. You can’t calm 

down, you need to go further – twice, 

three times or five times the champion, 

the more the better. Then time passes, a 

person becomes older, another vocation 

appears – to pass his experience to the 

younger generation: “Take it, guys! I’ll 

tell you how I did, trained, achieved my 

goals! Take me as an example and grow 

further, become better than me! If you 



become better than me, I will only be 

glad! Together we will support you and 

worry about you! ” 

– When playing, did you know that 

you would become a coach? 

– There were no thoughts to become 

a coach at that moment when I played 

hockey myself. When it became clear that 

age was right, I had to finish and think 

what to do next, the chain took shape by 

itself. Most athletes have no idea how to 

leave hockey and get out of it. If you went 

into hockey – that’s all, it’s your life, and 

you don’t understand how you can stay 

without it. I planned my life like this: to 

be in hockey, next to hockey, to work in 

hockey. At the same time with the game 

of hockey, we studied at Universities, 

received a pedagogical education. I 

once graduated from the Department of 

Game Sports of the Nadezhda Krupskaya 

Pedagogical University, then I attended 

further training, now I can work as a 

coach in all game sports. The transition 

to coaching was quick. Today I played, 

and tomorrow I became a coach of this 

team. I tried it and I liked it so much! 

Sometimes I get more pleasure than 

when I played myself. 

– According to this, the question 

arises: where is it easier, on ice or on a 

coaching bench? 

– And there, and there it is difficult. 

Harder is on the bridge. Why? Because 

there are many thoughts and ideas, you 

see, you suggest, but you cannot do it 

yourself. This is the hardest. Plus a lot 

of tension and responsibility for each 

player and for the team as a whole. 

– Coach, talent, work. What is more 

important? 

– We are all talented in something, 

the main thing is to prove ourselves. 

Talent, hard work and a coach are the 

inseparable components that affect the 

success of any player of any team in any 

sport of any country. 

– How can you explain to the child 

what the Olympic Games are, why do 

you need to strive for the victiry, and 

what does it cost to win Olympic gold 

medal? 

– In a nutshell, you won’t explain. 

Think and say ... what does it cost ... being 

there ... You are 7 years old, you come to 

a hockey club. It takes some years, and 

you get to the Olympics. At the moment, 

there is no feeling of euphoria. You have 

a goal, a task, you got there; if you calm 

down, you won’t achieve anything. Full 

concentration. Feeling comes when a 

hymn is played. You «look back», consider 

how many years you slogged, how much 

sweat, labor, effort, tears, failures, defeats 

are behind. You worked for a long time, 

made mistakes, got hard knocks . And 

here it is – the crown of your success! You 

have achieved what the boy dreamed 

about! You manage to realize this whole 

process, being on a pedestal, and this is 

the highest pleasure. 

– Is it worth living for this? 

– It’s worth it. Worth it. Really worth it. 

These emotions are indescribable. And 

then, when you become an Olympic 

champion, you feel like a different person. 

Your aura and inner strength help so 

much to continue living, to know who you 

are, to be proud of it, that you can say: “I 

have not lived my life until today, but I am 

still alive, and I will continue to live, I will 

strive for the better! What I have already 

done will help me in my future life! ” 

– What would you wish to hockey 

players who begin training today? 

– Diligence and desire to work. 

When there is a desire and hard work, 

everything can be achieved. Set a goal 

and go towards it in a good honest 

sporting way!

ANDZOR TEMBOTOV 

INFORMATION FROM THE OLYMPIC RESERVE: 

Andzor Tembotov is the head coach of the youth 

national team of Russia in freestyle wrestling. 

– Andzor, after the championship 

of Russia, the guys were selected 

for the national team. The training 

camp has begun, 50 athletes arrived 

to the camp. Did all 50 participants 

live up to your expectations at the 

championship of Russia? 

– 95% were those guys that we already 

knew, before they had already 

shown themselves. Someone became 

the first, someone – the second. All entered 

the top three winners. Showed 

their stability. According to the results of 

the performance at the world and European 

championships of the past, the previous 

year, we were watching these guys, 

we know them, more than one training 

camp was held together. Many of them 

we know very well. 

– You say that 5% are newcomers. 

Are they good athletes? 

– Young guys are catching up. At this 

age, competitive stability often changes, 

because the guys are still growing, the 

transitional age plays a role, moving 

from one weight category to another, 

and at such moments, it happens, they 

lose their leadership. Other wrestlers 

use it. Nobody is sitting still, everyone 

is training, breathing in the backs of the 

leaders and at the right time, using their 

chance they win. 

– Are there any leaders among 

juniors? Or you think that out of the 

four, who rise to the pedestal, the 

guys are more or less even? 

– In some weight categories there 

are clear leaders. But in most cases, all 

the guys are not inferior to each other 

in mastery. One of them wins today, 

another – tomorrow. So today the 

competition in most categories is high. 

– What competitions are ahead? 

Who is preparing for what? 

– After the training camp in Italy, the 

European Championship will be held. We 

will announce the members of the team 

closer to departure, because we will hold 

final fights, sparrings. Someone can get 

sick, someone can’t get in shape or get 



injured, everything can happen. We will 

not announce the list beforehand. At the 

end of July, Baku will host the European 

Youth Olympic Festival. Then, in early 

August, the world championship in 

Bulgaria will be held. The strongest team 

will go there, reliable guys. 

– How is the preparation for the 

main starts built? 

– First we carry out an in-depth 

medical examination so that the team 

doctors give permission to train in the 

national team. 

– Are there any special requirements? 

– An athlete must be healthy. Sometimes 

the consequences of an illness 

or injury can be revealed. We are loading 

them, and athletes should be able 

to work to the maximum. In practice, it 

turns out that 2-3 people for various reasons 

are not allowed to the main loads. 

Doctors take some time to correct this 

situation. 

Upon completion of the championship 

of Russia, the first stage of preparation is 

the general physical training. The guys 

go to the championship of Russia at the 

peak of the form. We give them a little rest, 

and then prepare basis for load. The first 

training camp took place in Elbrus region, 

at the altitude of 2200. The guys passed 

the training very well, then had rest. Now 

the next stage of preparation has begun – 

work on the mat. This is the second stage for 

those who go to the World championship, 

and the next step for participation in the 

European championship. 

– What tasks are set for the team at 

the European Championship? 

– We go for gold and train only for 

this. They are burning with the desire to 

win, the guys will beat to the end. As the 

saying goes, the mat will show! 

– Which countries, just like us, are 

claiming for victory? 

– At the World Championship, our main 

competitors are Americans. Freestyle 

wrestling is very popular in America. 

About 3 million children are engaged in it 

in the world. I am sure that they will bring a 

worthy team to the World championship. 

Iran. India has strengthened its position, 

the struggle here is very well developed. 

Turkey. Former Soviet republics: Ukraine, 

Azerbaijan, Georgia. 

I want to wish the guys good luck, 

to go through tournaments without 

injuries, and everything will work out!

AHMEDKHAN TEMBOTOV 


Akhmedkhan Tembotov is the winner of the 

III Summer Youth Olympic Games of 2018 

in Buenos Aires (Argentina). 

– You were selected for the Youth 

Olympic Games. What stages were 

completed before you got into the 

Olympic team? 

– The selection took place at the European 

Championship, which gave a license 

to travel to the Youth Olympic Games. Also, 

one of the selection stages was an international 

tournament, which took place in Turkey, 

where I took first place. 

– How did the preparations for the 

Youth Olympic Games go? 

– Preparations for the YOG went according 

to the plan of my coaches: Tembotov 

Andzor Ayubovich and Aslanov 

Azamat Vladimirovich. Several training 

camps were held, where I was well prepared 

and gained excellent athletic form. 

We flew to Argentina 10 days before the 

start of the YOG. Acclimatization was 

successful, I trained once a day, and there 

was time to prepare myself for the main 

start of the season. 

– How do you evaluate this international 

experience? How did you 

feel when representing the country at 

such important competitions? 

– I have already performed at international 

competitions more than once, but 

competitions of such scale were for the 

first time in my life. Responsibility for our 

country was felt more than at other international 

starts. The goal was to bring the 

Russian national team a gold medal so 

that Russia could win the team event, and 

it happened, and according to the results 

of the YOG, the team took first place in the 

team event. 

– What has changed in the training 

process after a successful performance 

at the Youth Olympic Games? 

Do you think that they have developed 

successfully? Did you fulfill your 

plans 100%? 

– Already in November, after the YOG, 

I started training and began to prepare 

for the next competition. The training 

process has remained unchanged, only 

the load has changed. Each international 



start gives a huge experience, most importantly, 

after the competition to analyze 

and correct errors, clearly listen to 

the settings of the coach. 

– Did Summer Youth Olympics live 

up to your expectations? 

– I was going for gold. No matter how 

difficult it was for me, I prepared myself 

only for victory and was ready to give 

everything for the gold medal. 

– Who do you look up to? 

– In freestyle wrestling, the best example 

for me is one of the most decorated 

athlete, Olympic champion – Buvaysar 

Saitiev. I also lok up to Bilyal Makhov, 

who, after many operations and diseases, 

failures, is still training and is currently 

preparing for the Tokyo Olympics 2020. 

– What are the next starts? 

– Now we are preparing for the European 

Championship, which will be held 

at the end of June in Italy. 

– What are your plans for 2019- 

2010? 

– Now my goal is the European Championship, 

but I have not thought about 

other starts. After the European Championship, 

the coaches will decide which 

competitions we will have next. 

– Dear Andzor Ayubovich (coach), 

how do you assess the results of the 

Russian Championship in Irkutsk? 

What conclusions have you made? 

– The final of the Championship of 

Russia U18 in Irkutsk was held at a good 

level, the organizers provided comfortable 

conditions for all the teams. The hall 

was large and comfortable, however, the 

stands were not completely filled, which 

is unusual for our sport. Moreover, our 

team showed very beautiful wrestling, 

there were many interesting and equal 

matches. When we conduct competitions 

in such regions where wrestling 

is not developed very much, we should 

give more advertising through posters in 

the city, television and social networks. 

– What are the plans for the upcoming 

European Championship? How 

is the preparation for these competitions 

going? 

– In preparation for the European 

Championship, we will hold two training 

camps, one now being held in Elbrus region 

at an altitude of 2000 meters above 

sea level, and the second training camp in 

Moscow on the basis of Moscow Olympic 

College № 1, in June from 4 to 19. 

– How was the selection for the 

Youth Olympic Games? 

– The main selection for the Youth 

Olympic Games was held at the European 

Championship, where only the first place 

winner can receive a license, we took 

three out of five Olympic weights, but according 

to the situation from the country, 

we could put up only two athletes. We 

chose two – this is Sergey Kozyrev, who 

successfully won the European Championship, 

he also performed steadily at all 

national and international tournaments, 

and Akhmedkhan Tembotov, who also 

won the European Championship with a 

clear advantage, by that moment he had 

also won the international tournament in 

Turkey and was the winner of the championships 

of Russia and Europe under 16 

years. 

– What stages did Ahmedkhan go 

through before getting into the Youth 

Olympic team? 

– We prepared very well, we had the 

time and all the conditions for this, we 

carried out three training camps, the first 

training camp took place in Moscow, in 

Moscow Olympic College №1, the second 

in Alushta, in the Crimea, and the third in 

Argentina in Buenos Aires. We took everything 

into account, different climate, 

time zone. Among our rivals, there were 

winners of the World Championships and 

champions of their continents. 

– How did the preparation for the 

Youth Olympic Games go? 

– Youth Olympic Games are of great 

interest. The atmosphere is the same as 

in the adult Olympics. Everything takes 

place in the Olympic village in a festive 

atmosphere, it is very exciting when 

countries count the number of gold 

medals. Athletes feel huge responsibility 

for their countries. To wrestle and to 

win in such an environment is a real challenge, 

and at the same time a significant 

experience for them. 

– How do you evaluate this international 

experience? What did you feel 

representing athletes at such important 

competitions? 

– I went to many Olympic games, and 

we always set ourselves up for victory, 

but in Buenos Aires, we were supposed 

to perform after the scandals when our 

Olympic team was not allowed to go to 

Winter Olympics, and then they still allowed 

us to participate, but without a 

flag and anthem. Therefore, we spoke 

here even more patriotically, everyone 

was rooting for each other. I am immensely 

glad that by our victory we 

made a significant contribution to the 

team results. Two gold medals out of 

two possible. Thanks to our joint work, 

the anthem was played and the flag of 

Russia was hoisted! 

– What has changed in the training 

process after a successful performance 

at the Youth Olympic Games? Do you 

consider them successful? Fulfilled to 

100% ? What expectations from the YOG 

were lived up to or, were not lived up to? 

– Nothing has changed much after 

the YOG, just now we have other goals, 

we are preparing again for the next competitions, 

the guys, as before, are giving 

all their best while training, they have become 

more confident and now they approach 

their trainings more consciously. 

– What are your plans for 2019- 

2010? 

– This year we will perform at the European 

and World Championships!

NIKOLAY LAVRINENKO 


Nikolay Lavrinenko – coach of the bronze 

medalist of III Summer Youth Olympic Games – 

Dmitry Kachanov. 

– What will the 2019–2020 years of 

preparation look like? 

– We will systematically go through 

preparation periods, strengthen the 

body, prepare it for adult stress. This will 

allow us to get closer to the next Olympic 

cycle in a better form. Therefore, we will 

work on ourselves both technically and 

psychologically. And for those guys who 

will pole vault and participate in the 

Youth Olympic Games, I’ll advise not to 

be afraid of anything, to do everything 

that the coaches teach them, and they 

will succeed! Because our Russian school 

is one of the best in many sports, this 

could already be seen. No need to bother 

with extra information, you should trust 

your coaches, your natural feelings, and 

you will be a success. 

– What are your plans for 2019– 

2020? 

– Avoid injuries, go through all the 

stages of preparation successfully and 

get to the adult Olympic Games. 

– To the question of how the 

competitions are held, how do you 

evaluate them? 

– In general, positively! Dima performed 

with dignity, worked at his best, 

did not show weak character. It’s just that 

there were moments related to acclimatization: 

the competition took place in 

the middle of the day, and this is +25 

degrees in the shade, we encountered 

heat after we had already switched to 

the autumn regime here in Russia, and 

then the body malfunctioned... Therefore, 

at the second stage, Dima didn’t 

let his rivals take advantage of this. But 

the conclusions are made, they will be 

taken into account in the future, I think 

Dima himself perfectly understood this. 

These competitions can be called successful: 

according to the results, Dima 

came close to a personal record, he got 

a medal, and that’s good. But Dima’s 

dissatisfaction remains and encourages 

him, makes him more persistent, makes 

him do all his best during the training 

process. There is an understanding that 

every little thing is important, and this 

contributes to self-improvement. 

THE INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE THAT WE GAINED 

DURING THESE COMPETITIONS IS INVALUABLE. 

A LOT OF ASPECTS CONNECTED BOTH WITH SPORTS, 

AND LIFE IN GENERAL SHOULD BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT: 

COMMUNI CATION IN DIFFERENT LANGUAGES, ACCLIMATIZATION, 

NUTRITION, WHICH REQUIRED ADJUSTMENT, 

A LOT OF ACTIONS THAT HAD TO BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT, 

WHICH HAD BEEN UNNECESSARY BEFORE. 



– According to your feelings, in addition 

to the interest to the competitions, 

their organization (transfer, 

stay, food, training process), Dima 

didn’t let you down, did he? 

– On the contrary, we enjoyed the results 

of the work done earlier. We drew 

conclusions, chose the direction where 

we should move further, what to strive 

for, changed some aspects of the training 

program, made adjustments. These 

competitions allowed me to gain irreplaceable 

experience as a coach and 

Dima as an active athlete, aiming for future 

victories. 

The international experience that 

we gained during these competitions 

is invaluable. A lot of aspects connected 

both with sports, and life in 

general should be taken into account: 

communi cation in different languages, 

acclimatization, nutrition, which required 

adjustment, a lot of actions that 

had to be taken into account, which had 

been unnecessary before. Given that 

this is the first competition of such a 

high level, this is a good start for Dima’s 

future career. 

Preparations for the Youth Olympic 

Games took place in two stages. Dima 

had to take a break after the European 

DIMA AND I ARE NOW FOCUSED ON THE JUNIOR EUROPEAN 

CHAMPIONSHIP, WHICH WILL BE HELD ON JULY 18-21 IN SWEDEN. 

WE WILL PARTICIPATE IN THE MOSCOW CHAMPIONSHIP, 

THEN IN THE RUSSIAN CHAMPIONSHIP IN SARANSK, WHERE THE 

SELECTION FOR THE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP WILL TAKE PLACE. 

AFTER THE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP, WE WILL PREPARE FOR 

THE COMPETITIONS HELD ON AUGUST 2–4 IN CHEBOKSARY. 

THIS WILL BE THE FINAL START OF THIS SEASON FOR DIMA. 

Championship. Dima trained according 

to an individual program in his hometown. 

In September, we resumed technical 

training and were already preparing 

for a trip to Buenos Aires. We stayed 

there for about two weeks, this allowed 

us to pull up some technical part and 

perform at our best in Argentina. 

As for the Youth Olympics, the selection 

was as follows. To qualify for participation 

in the Games, you need to fulfill 

the standard during the year. The standard 

was 4.80 m. Dima jumped 5.20. After 

that, it was necessary to confirm his 

place at the Russian Championship, to 

qualify for the European Youth Festival 

in Hungary. There he won the 4th place, 

and he had to get into the eight, thereby 

entering the lists of juniors for the Youth 

Olympics. After that, we started preparing 

for the Youth Olympic Games in Argentina. 

Dima and I are now focused on the 

Junior European Championship, which 

will be held on July 18-21 in Sweden. We 

will participate in the Moscow championship, 

then in the Russian championship 

in Saransk, where the selection for 

the European championship will take 

place. After the European Championship, 

we will prepare for the competitions 

held on August 2–4 in Cheboksary. 

This will be the final start of this season 

for Dima.

DMITRY KACHANOV 


Dmitry Kachanov – master of sports Russian Athlete, 

Bronze medalist of III Summer Youth Olympic Games 

in Buenos Aires 2018 (Argentina). 

– Dima, did the Olympics impress 

you? Can it be called the Olympic 

Games, or is it still youth competition? 

– I went to Argentina, as if I was going 

to the Championship of Russia. When 

we arrived, we felt there as if we were at 

home. 

– Maybe that’s why you got bronze? 

You were not thinking about your 

competitors, that athletes from other 

countries were also preparing hard, 

there would be a real competition, 

you would have to fight for a medal. 

– After the first competitive day I 

relaxed, I thought that it would not cost 

anything to win. It was necessary to 

jump the same way, and the gold medal 

would be mine. 

– Did you regret it later? 

– Well, yes. 

– Was it difficult to qualify for the 

youth team? 

– It was necessary to win the Russian 

Championship, to fulfill the standards 

for participation in the European 

Championship – to jump 5.30 m, then – 

at least to get into the eight in Europe. 

– At what start did you comply with 

the standard? 

– The first start at the «Opening of 

the season» was a success. Then I won 

Moscow Championship, selected for 

the Russian Championship and won it 

by a wide margin. In Europe, I became 

the fourth. I lost to the bronze medalist. 

This was my first start at the international 

level, I competed without a 

coach, and in technical terms it was 

rather difficult. 

– In Buenos Aires, how did the 

competition go? 

– I thought it would be easy to win. 

My best season result was superior to 

that of the rivals’. I went to Argentina as 

a leader. It was enough in the second 

series to repeat the jump at 5.20, and no 

one would have caught up with me. It 

did not work out. 

– After the gold floated out of 

your hands, did you reconsider your 

attitude to the preparation process 

for the competition? 

– Reviewed, of course. 

– What are your plans for the 

upcoming season? 

– In June – the championship of Russia 

in Saransk. I have to jump high and 

win. To be competitive and to win international 

competitions, you need to jump 

5.50 m. At the end of July – European 

Championship. 

– Dima, do you have any idols? 

– Of course, I do. It is necessary 

to look up to somebody. The first, of 

course, is Sergey Bubka. He still holds 

the world record he set. I also look up 

to a frenchman Renault Lavilleni – a 

world record holder. I like his style, the 

technique of jumping. In Russia, they 

like Bubka’s style, his strength, and I am 

impressed more by the french Lavilleni 

technique. 

– Is 5.50 m reachable this year? 

– Yes! 

– At college, is everything ok? 

– Sure. I plan to graduate with 

excellent marks! 

– We wish you success in everything! 

Hold the pole with strong hands and 

defeat all opponents! 


RADMIR GABDULLIN 


Gabdullin Radmir Ildarovich – President of the Union 

of Mixed Martial Arts MMA of Russia. 


– Is Mixed martial arts popular with 

children? 

– Children’s sports are very popular. 

Many parents want their children 

to practice mixed martial arts. Across 

the country in 81 regions there are 

federations of the mixed martial arts 

accredited by the Ministry of Sports. 

We payed much attention to education 

and training of the MMA coaches 

so that our specialists receive higher 

education, all the necessary skills, official 

coaching licenses for working 

with children, adolescents, youth and 

adult athletes. Today, there are certain 

federal standards. With the advent of 

women’s sports, new changes to the 

regulations came into force, and we, 

of course, pay special attention to the 

training of coaches. Children’s MMA 

can be practiced from 10 years old. 

Competitive activity under the law on 

physical education and sports is allowed 

from the age of 12. We strictly 

observe this regulation. 

– If parents have decided on this 

sport, where should they go? 

– To the regional federation. Before 

giving your child to a coach, you need 

to make sure that he has the appropriate 

education, a coaching license, that he is a 

qualified specialist, and only then he can 

WITH THE ADVENT OF WOMEN’S SPORTS, NEW CHANGES TO THE 

REGULATIONS CAME INTO FORCE, AND WE, OF COURSE, PAY SPECIAL 

ATTENTION TO THE TRAINING OF COACHES. CHILDREN’S MMA CAN BE 

PRACTICED FROM 10 YEARS OLD. COMPETITIVE ACTIVITY UNDER THE 

LAW ON PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND SPORTS IS ALLOWED FROM THE 

AGE OF 12. WE STRICTLY OBSERVE THIS REGULATION. 

be trusted with his child. Today, there are 

a lot of so-called “self-styled coaches” 

who cannot be trusted. They use their 

imaginary, false victories, fake workshops 

and coaching certificates, gain 

paid groups, and we don’t know what 

they teach children. For us, children are 

a priority. Therefore, we have to struggle 

with such “specialists”. 

– At the championship of Russia, 

how do young athletes try themselves? 

– Young people try themselves very 

actively and, most importantly, effectively. 

We see how 16-, 17-, 18-year-olds 

show their worth at world and European 

championships. They are already real 

fighters. They are not amateurs, they are 

professionals. Each of them undergoes 

multi-stage selection, conducts several 

fights for the competition. Such training 

process is more complicated than that of 

professionals. 

– Do we have potential for future 

champions in MMA? 

– We have a future, like other sports. 

Today the country has everything to do 

sports, to win and to hear the anthem of 

the Russian Federation in their honor.

ARTHUR BETERBIEV 


Arthur Beterbiev is the light heavyweight world 

champion. Honored Master of Sports of Russia. World 

and European champion, winner of the World Cup. 

– Based on your achievements, 

how did you achieve everything you 

wanted as an athlete? 

– Unfortunately, I do not have 

Olympic gold yet, but I won almost 

everything: Russia, Europe, the world, I 

was recognized as the best boxer in the 

world in 2010. At home there are awards, 

certificates of a world-class master of 

sports and an honored master of sports. 

For me it is very nice, warms the soul. 

– Are amateur and professional 

sports 2 different sports or one is a 

continuation of another? 

– I believe that the continuation, 

because if I did not have an amateur 

career, in the professionals it would be 

much more difficult for me. I don’t mean 

that it’s easy for me in the pros right 

now, but I definitely don’t regret having 

lingered in amateur boxing for so long. 

This experience helps me a lot. 

– What do you think, is it worth for 

the younger generation of athletes 

to dream of building a career in 

professional boxing? 

– Yes, of course. For example, I had 

a goal, a dream – the Olympic Games. 

And when in 2008 I got to the Olympics 

and because of poor refereeing I lost the 

fight to a Chinese boxer, I was shocked. 

– Did you want to quit? 

– Sure. This is a huge stress. But after 

that, the ranking world cup was to be held 

Photo by Ed Mulholland 

in Moscow, and this Chinese athlete was 

also to be present. I began preparations 

with great zeal, I really wanted to beat 

him there. I won the tournament, but the 

Chinese did not come. 

– Probably, he got scared? 

– I haven’t seen him anywhere else. I 

really wanted to stand with him at least 

in sparring! 

– If you left boxing, was there a plan 

how to build your life further? 

– I never considered myself a stupid 

person, and I always studied. I studied 

in the Moscow College of Olympic 

reserve №1, then I entered the Russian 

State University of Physical Education 

and Culture, if necessary I will start 

studying something new. I am sure that 

I will find myself in some field, useful 

both for me and for society. Here I am 

very optimistic. 

– Do you think coaching would suit 

you? 

– Coaching is very difficult. In 

Canada, where I now live and train, a lot 

of guys come to our gym. I always try to 

tell them various from my experience, 

what I have learned over the years. They 

are grateful and say that I will make a 

very good coach. But I don’t think about 

coaching yet. 

– Why? 

– You see, the point is not that I do not 

want to share the experience. I’ve been 

in boxing for 25 years, and to be honest, 

I just don’t want to spend the rest of my 

life in it. The regime, nutrition, training 

several times a day is very difficult. So 

at the end of my career, I plan, let’s say, 

to retire. But I don’t know yet what will 

happen in the future. If it is written by 

fate to become a coach, I will become a 

coach. 

– Before each match, a face to face 

ceremony takes place, how do you feel 

about it? Does it help or harm? 

– Well, this is part of the promotion, 

professional fights are a show. Everything 

is done in order to interest and attract 

the adience. Like «if they look at each 

other like that, what will happen in the 

fight?» Intensity of emotions. And I take 

it very calmly. Whether my opponent 

will look me in the eyes or not, will not 

change anything. This is part of our work. 

– What would you wish to young 

athletes? 

– The most important thing is to set 

the maximum goal for yourself and to go 

closer to this goal day and night. Then 

you will succeed!

ASLANBEK KHUSHTOV 


Aslanbek Khushtov – Russian Greco-Roman 

wrestler, Honored Master of Sports of Russia, 

Olympic champion 2008, three-time European 

champion (2008, 2009, 2010), two-time bronze 

medalist of the World Championships (2009, 

2010), World Cup winner 2008. 

– I remember all my sports steps 

since childhood. When I look at 

young guys, I remember myself. I 

was not lucky enough to win Youth 

Championship of Russia, Europe and 

the world among youth. Today we raise 

a good generation, prepare a good 

replacement in the national team of 

Russia. We have a stellar team now. 

Wherever you look, there are champions 

of the world, Europe and the Olympic 

Games. Therefore, today’s youth have 

someone to equal, what to strive for, 

and, probably, the responsibility is 

becoming greater. When there are so 

many stars in a team, a certain burden 

of responsibility falls on newcomers, 

but I’m sure they will cope with this 

challenge and, along with their senior 

teammates, will prepare for the main 

championships. 

Of course, everyone knows Moscow 

College of Olympic Reserve №1. It is led 

by David Musulbes, whom we love very 

much. He is both a magnificent person 

and a leader. Number one means a lot. 

We often observe how our great athletes 

give master classes in the college, 

and how the athletic performance of 

students is growing. With the advent of 

social networks in our lives, we almost 

online see what success athletes achieve 

in competitions in rhythmic gymnastics, 

freestyle, Greco-Roman wrestling. 

TO BECOME AN OLYMPIC CHAMPION, 

YOU NEED TO TRAIN WITH FULL DEDICATION, NOT TO SPARE 

YOURSELF, AND THE RESULT WILL COME. 

PERSEVERANCE, HARD WORK AND DEDICATION. 

TODAY, FOR EVERY ATHLETE WHO RISES TO THE TOP OF OLYMPUS, 

THIS WORK MUST BE GIVEN 100% OF THEIR EFFORTS. 



71


IN SPORTS, YOU ARE EITHER A CHAMPION, OR JUST LIKE EVERYONE 

ELSE. WE MUST STRIVE, WE MUST WORK, FULFILL THE TASKS 

THAT A COACH SETS, AND WITH ALL THIS, TRAINING COMES FIRST. 

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER! WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE YOU WILL BE 

UNABLE TO WORK ON THE MAT. IT IS NECESSARY TO BE ABLE TO 

COMBINE STUDYING AND PLAYING SPORTS. 

Therefore, I want to wish the school not 

to give up their positions and continue 

developing in the same direction. And 

to become an Olympic champion, you 

need to train with full dedication, not to 

spare yourself, and the result will come. 

Perseverance, hard work and dedication. 

Today, for every athlete who rises 

to the top of Olympus, this work must be 

given 100% of their efforts. “I’ll practice 

a little, then take a little rest” – such attitude 

does not work. In sports, you are 

either a champion, or just like everyone 

else. We must strive, we must work, fulfill 

the tasks that a coach sets, and with all 

this, training comes first. Knowledge is 

power! Without knowledge you will be 

unable to work on the mat. It is necessary 

to be able to combine studying and 

playing sports. 

I want to wish the young athletes of 

the College of Olympic Reserve №1 to 

always be the first, not to give up their 

ideas, and we will cheer for you, be 

happy for you and we will give you a 

standing applause!

he existing concept of training 

an athlete is considered a difficult, 

multifactorial phenomenon 

that contains goals, objectives, tools, 

methods, organizational forms, material 

and technical conditions that ensure the 

organizational and pedagogical process 

of preparing an athlete for competitions 

and achieving their highest sports characteristics. 

Sports training is considered 

a significant incentive for young athletes, 

increases the desire to exercise diligently 

and hard, to invest all forces without exception 

in the result. But the discovery of 

common patterns of the improvement 

process in the formation of the physical 

qualities of young athletes, which 

contribute to the formation of a strong 

foundation for increasing the degree of 

their technical, tactical, functional and 

emotional fitness, undoubtedly remains 

important. 

The aim of the study is to determine 

the rational means and methods of the 

training process that contribute to increasing 

the level of physical preparation 

of athletes 14-16 years old, specializing 

in middle-distance running. 

The training process should be considered 

as an integrated dynamic system, 

where at each specific stage specific

• Abstract: The article considers the most rational means and methods used 

in the training process for training athletes aged 14–16 years, specializing in 

middle-distance running, aimed at developing their basic physical qualities. 

The experiment was attended by 10 athletes aged 14 to 16 years, and having 

the following sports categories (1 athlete – II adult, and 9 people – III adult). As 

a result of research, the means and methods of preparation are systematized 

depending on age, sport, and training influences. 

• Key words: training process, athletes, physical training, means, methods, 

efficiency. 

cal skill and the choice of means, methods 

and values of training influences. It 

is organized in accordance with specific 

targets, which are specifically expressed 

by the magnitude of the predicted result 

and determine the necessary implementation 

of the training program. To 

achieve the highest results, each athlete 

must develop such qualities as flexibility, 

speed, agility, endurance, strength. 

When choosing a discipline in athletics, 

the athlete takes into account his qualities 

and then diligently trains the necessary 

skills and sustains the rest. Based on 

the research of scientists, it is proved that 

in order to achieve the best indicators of 

physical qualities they must be formed in 

certain years of the athlete’s formation. 

V. N. Platonov under the methods of 

sports training refers to the methods and 

activities of the coach, with the help of 

which he achieves the development and 

knowledge of the athlete the necessary 

skills and abilities, the required qualities 

and outlook on life are formed. For 

actual purposes, all methods without 

exception are relatively divided into 3 

categories: verbal, visual and practical. 

During sports training, all these methods 

are used in different combinations. Each 

method is not used as standard, but is 

regularly adapted to certain require- 



ments due to the distinctive features of 

sports training. When choosing methods, 

it is necessary to ensure that they 

exactly meet the established tasks, general 

didactic principles, and in addition, 

the special principles of sports training, 

age and gender characteristics of athletes, 

their qualifications and physical 

fitness. In sports, where a special place 

is given to the relationship with practice, 

and in addition, due to the peculiar features 

of sports activities, the main role is 

given to practical methods. 

Before testing the athletes with a 

trainer, the following training methods 

were used: uniform, variable, game, 

circular. The main tools were: jumping, 

running at short and medium distances, 

exercises with small weights, outdoor 

games, relay races. 

Test results of the group: 60 meter 

run – average level in 5 athletes (50%), 

low – 5 (50%). Running 1000 m – the average 

level in 5 athletes (50%), low – 5 (50%). 

Long jump from standstill – 1 athlete has 

a high level (10%), the average level is 

5 (50%), and the low level is 4 (40%). 400 m 

running – average level in 7 athletes (70%), 

low 3 (30%). Pull-up – 1 athlete has a high 

level (10%), the average level is 5 (50%), 

and the low level is 4 (40%). 

Analysis of the presented diagram 

indicates that the average and low level 

of physical fitness prevails. A high level 

shows a significant minority of athletes. 

Thanks to the introduction of a variety 

of training methods, such as the method 

of re-performing speed-strength exercises 

(dynamic effort method) without 

burden and with the greatest burden; 

a method of repeated performance of 

a speed exercise at the maximum and 

near-ultimate speed; the method of 

re-performing speed exercises in lightweight 

conditions; the method of variable 

exercise, increased strength indicators, 

speed, endurance, dexterity. 

In the process of comprehensive physical 

education, the main means were: 

• for the development of speed-power 

qualities the following were used: 

jumping, short-distance running, 

throwing, exercises with small and 

greatest weights, acrobatic exercises; 

• for the development of general endurance, 

long running and crosscountry 

races, cycling, swimming, 

outdoor and sports games were used. 

• to develop dexterity, throwing, jumping, 

exercises in balance with additional 

tasks, outdoor and sports 

games, exercises requiring high coordination 

of movements (walking on 

a gymnastic bench, logs, relay races) 

were used.

The analysis of the control chart 

shows that after applying several versatile 

methods and means, the average 

and high level of physical fitness began 

to prevail. A low level indicates a significant 

minority of athletes. 

Thus, it can be stated that the preparation 

of a long-term plan for training 

an athlete should be reduced to the use 

of several training methods and means. 

None of the methods should be limited 

in the methodology of physical education 

as the only and the best. Only the 

optimal combination of these methods 

in accordance with the methodological 

principles can ensure the successful 

implementation of the complex tasks of 

physical education and development of 

sportsmen-athletes.

CHALLENGES AND GOALS OF AN 

OLYMPIC COLLEGE GROUP ADVISOR 

OF FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS 

Author: H. H. Valeeva 

AT FSBI “Samara State College for Olympic reserve Samara”, 

Methodologist, halida7272@mail.ru 

• Abstract: Education, along with training, is one of the components of studying, 

the essence of which is the development of the student’s personality. Advisorship

E 

VALEEVA H. H. 

ducation, along with training, 

is one of the components 

of education, the essence of 

which is to develop the personality of 

the student. Supervision today is not 

only the fulfillment of the social role of a 

teacher and mentor, but also the socialization 

of students, assistance in adapting 

to the student audience, to each other. A 

lot depends on how much the advisor is 

a personality in himself, how seriously he 

takes his extra load. The work of the advisor 

today should be aimed at solving the 

priority task of upbringing in secondary 

vocational education – creating optimal 

conditions for self-development of the 

student’s personality. It is no coincidence 

that the role of the advisor of the student 

group in the process of teaching and 

educating young people is now more 

important and significant than ever. 

Acting as a youth mentor, the advisor is 

called upon to help students adapt in the 

educational institution, to acquaint children 

with the traditions of the school in 

educational, scientific, sports and social 

activities. 

The advisor has a difficult task – to 

make sure that each student feels his 

need, significance in accordance with 

real capabilities. 

Thus, with all the variety of tasks of 

advisorial activity, its main goal is to help 

students organize activities correctly, 

find their place in the life of the study 

group and the entire educational institu- 

tion. This task is most relevant and significant 

in the first courses, when students 

fell into new conditions for them. 

In the new educational environment, 

first-year students have to comprehend 

their new role, get used to the new sociopsychological 

conditions. Adaptation in 

all students takes place differently depending 

on the social maturity of the 

student, on upbringing and other factors 

of personality development. Therefore, 

the work of the advisor should be built 

individually, taking into account all these 

factors of the student’s personality development. 

Among the problems that arise 

in front of a student entering the school, 

the following can be distinguished: 

– The educational process in the 

GUOR is in many ways different from the 

school. Differences in teaching methods 

in general and vocational schools, the 

new environment in many respects devalue 

the methods of assimilation of material 

acquired at school. Students have 

problems with both the organization of 

the educational process and the content 

of instruction. Therefore, a necessary 

condition for the student’s successful activity 

is the development of new features 

of studying at the school, eliminating the 

feeling of internal discomfort and possible 

conflicts with the environment. 

The combination of the educational and 

training processes, based on the new learning 

conditions, also causes difficulties, and 

assistance in organizing the correct training 

regime is extremely important. 

A student entering a technical school 

asks himself questions: what can I, what 

can not, how do my classmates perceive 

me, am I better or worse than others? And 

he needs to find his place in the team, to 

gain authority and respect of classmates. 

It is during the initial courses that the 

student is aware of the vocation for the 

chosen profession, a system of work for 

self-education and self-education of professionally 

significant personality qualities 

is established. 

THE COMBINATION OF THE EDUCATIONAL AND TRAINING PROCESSES, 

BASED ON THE NEW LEARNING CONDITIONS, ALSO CAUSES 

DIFFICULTIES, AND ASSISTANCE IN ORGANIZING THE CORRECT 

TRAINING REGIME IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. 

Also, the student must adapt to new 

living conditions: independent organization 

of study, life, training process, free 

time. 

Relations with parents go to a new 

level, as a teenager gradually becomes 

an independent person. 

Great responsibility in solving these 

problems lies with the group advisor. 

The complexity of the work of the advisor 

in a secondary vocational school is 

that students come by already-formed 

personalities, and the advisor must build 

his work on the basis of this circumstance. 



Coming to a new educational institution, 

a student does not understand 

much, can easily skip classes, therefore, 

meeting each group of a new set, the advisor 

should convince the student from 

the very beginning that today, for him, 

studying is a paramount task. And to organize 

the educational process correctly 

without observing the regime of attending 

training sessions is very difficult. The 

role of the advisor in this case is to keep 

track of the absenteeism of students in 

time, in the absence of the student to be 

aware of the reasons (departure for training 

or competition, illness, other good 

reasons). If the student misses classes for 

disrespectful reasons, the advisor conducts 

educational work in the form of individual 

conversations, it is possible to involve 

parents, a coach in order to identify 

the reasons for the omissions. From the 

first days, the student must understand 

and realize that now he is under constant 

control not only from the side of the parents, 

the coach, but also from the side of 

the advisor. 

The advisor also needs to organize 

control over the academic work and 

academic performance of students in 

his group for their possible adjustment 

based on interaction with the teachers 

of the school. This feature is especially 

important in junior courses. At the same 

time, a systematic discussion is held in the 

group of current performance and student 

certification results for each month. 

Based on the results of the group’s work, 

individual work is carried out with students 

with unsatisfactory certification. 

In case of problems, the advisor should 

conduct an explanatory conversation 

with the student in order to find out the 

reasons for low academic performance, 

if necessary, work with parents, and involve 

the school administration in work. 

Based on the analysis, work is underway 

to strengthen academic discipline. 

An important aspect in the adaptation 

of freshmen is also their involvement in 

extracurricular activities. Participation 

in them helps to identify their qualities, 

abilities, skills that can be positively evaluated 

in the team and all their development. 

There are many such cases when 

students discover themselves in a new 

team in a new way, since it is much easier 

for many to show themselves on stage or 

in a sports competition in an even more 

unfamiliar team than in a school where 

they were well known and where there 

was a certain attitude towards them. 

The main task of the advisor is to instill 

in the freshman a positive attitude 

towards the profession. Some students, 

faced with unexpected learning difficulties, 

begin to doubt the correctness 

of their professional choice. For most of 

them, doubts give rise to a lack of awareness 

of their future profession, which, 

in turn, changes their attitudes, causes 

a loss of interest in learning, and a decrease 

in academic performance. Therefore, 

when communicating with freshmen, 

the efforts of the advisor should 

be aimed at comprehensively raising 

the awareness of students about the 

specifics of their future profession. This 

supports the desire to learn, improves 

academic performance, and stimulates 

interest in public work. 

To solve all these problems, the advisor 

needs the ability to communicate, 

be open, disposed, capable of empathy, 

tactful, polite, friendly. 

An important function in the work of 

the advisor is performed by the advisor 

meeting. It was on the advisor hours during 

the general discussions of pressing 

issues that the guys get to know each 

other better and reveal themselves. Advisor 

meetings are devoted to any urgent 

topic of educating students. For example, 

topics such as «AIDS is the problem 

of all mankind», «The Secret to Success» 

with the invitation of famous and outstanding 

athletes, famous personalities 

make them think about the future, about 

their role in life and their significance for 

themselves and others. 

The advisor needs to form an asset 

for the student group and assist him in 

organizational work. He should strive to 

rally the study group, create an atmosphere 

of goodwill, mutual support, mutual 

assistance and cooperation, and a 

creative attitude towards learning. Also, 

at the initial stage of students’ training, 

it is necessary to establish contacts with 

parents and, if possible, involve them 

in educational activities in the group. 

Studying by the advisor of the individual 

characteristics, interests and inclinations 

of students, their marital status and living 

conditions will help students socially 

adapt to new living conditions. 

Thus, the advisor is a professional role 

related to the pedagogical support of 

students as adult learners. The student’s 

personality is a holistic self-organizing 

system, more stable than the student’s 

personality, but its psychosocial development 

continues. The student still needs 

to be managed by teachers, since many 

qualities still continue to arise and develop, 

for many students the psychological 

age is far behind the physiological. This is 

manifested in the fact that a young man 

is not always aware of the responsibility 

for his own life, he is not interested in his 

own personal meanings, he is inclined to 

fall under the influence of other people. 

Consequently, advising involves such 

pedagogical support that is necessary 

even for adults. However, throughout 

WITH ALL THE VARIETY OF TASKS OF ADVISORIAL ACTIVITY, ITS 

MAIN GOAL IS TO HELP STUDENTS ORGANIZE ACTIVITIES CORRECTLY, 

FIND THEIR PLACE IN THE LIFE OF THE STUDY GROUP AND THE 

ENTIRE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION. THIS TASK IS MOST RELEVANT 

AND SIGNIFICANT IN THE FIRST COURSES, WHEN STUDENTS FELL 

INTO NEW CONDITIONS FOR THEM. 

the course of training at the College of 

Olympic Reserve, this support may have 

a different degree of involvement in the 

student’s life, since in the first year it needs 

help in adaptation, and in the last year it 

requires help in scientific self-determination. 

But the student group, both in the 

first and subsequent courses, consists of 

students of different psychological ages 

and, therefore, different levels of responsibility 

in relation to their own life choices.

CORRECTION OF BEHAVIORAL DIORDERS 

OF PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN 

BY MEANS OF CHOREOGRAPHY 

IN SYNCHRONIZED SWIMMING 

Author: Ignatieva E. A. 3rd year Student, State budget professional institution «Moscow 

secondary special school of Olympic reserve № 3 (College)», the Moscow Sport Committee 

• Abstract: synchronized swimming, and, in particular, choreography contribute 

to the education and correction of children’s behavior, has a positive impact on 

physical development, contribute to the growth of their general culture, so we 

can say that the art of dance has a rich opportunity for a wide implementation 

of educational tasks 

• Keywords: synchronized swimming, correction of behavior disorders of primary 

school children, attention deficit, hyperactivity disorder 

S 

IGNATIEVA E. A. 

ynchronized swimming is one 

of the most interesting and 

spectacular arts. It is based not 

only on swimming, but also on choreography. 

With the help of choreography, a 

child not only develops physically and 

spiritually, but also develops his aesthetic 

taste and sense of perception of beauty. 

Choreographic art educates a child, adjusts 

his behavior, while exercises in water 

soothe child’s nervous system. 

Nowadays, the problem of correcting 

the behavior of primary school age 

children is very relevant. This problem 

originates from all areas of society: political, 

environmental and socio-economic. 

Unfavorable family relationships and 

lack of parents’ attention under constant 

pressure of work course pseudocultures. 

If a child is not busy with a specific occupation 

in his spare time and is left to his 

own devices, then disturbing symptoms 

of behavioral disorder associated with 

this appear. This is manifested in the absence 

of motivation to study at school, 

in aggressive acts, various psychological 

conflicts with peers and adults. 

The principle of psychological and 

pedagogical analysis of the content, 

structure of behavioral disorders of children 

of primary school age is the basis of 

pedagogical requirements for determining 

the content, methods and organizational 

forms of classes with children in 

choreography. Classes in synchronized 

swimming and, in particular, choreography 

contribute to the upbringing and 

correction of children’s behavior, positively 

affect physical development, contribute 

to the growth of their overall culture, 

therefore it can be stated that dance 

art has rich possibilities for the wide implementation 

of educational tasks: 

• to identify the causes of behavioral 

disorders of primary school children, 

to study the main theoretical and 

methodological approaches to the 

problem of behavioral disorders of 

primary school children 

• to study the age and individual characteristics 

of primary school children 

• to develop a program for correcting 

behavior and development of young 

children by means of choreography in 

synchronized swimming. 

Improving the system of physical education 

has a progressive impact on the 

efforts of sports teachers to educate a 

full-fledged personality in the framework 

of physical culture and sports. Thus, it 

becomes possible to build the System 

of physical education in such a way that 

physical and mental development of students 

would be carried out in connection. 

With this methodological approach, 

it is possible to achieve full development 

of personality, and make physical culture 

an effective factor in its formation. 

Psychological and pedagogical studies 

show that various difficulties and problems 

are encountered in children, among 

which behavioral disorders are observed. 

Behavior is one of the selection criteria 

for the national team staff. There are 

many definitions of the term “behavior”, 

but one of the most popular can be 

found in reference psychiatric literature. 

“Behavior” is defined as the physical and 

psychological way of behaving taking 

into account the norms established in 

the social group to which the individual 

belongs. [1] 

A child suffering from violation in behavior 

strives in various ways to attract the 

attention of adults, to gain access to unwanted 

objects or actions, or, conversely, 

to avoid knowledge that is unpleasant for 

him. The destructive direction is divided 

into two groups: violation of behavior – a 

single aggressive type (the dominance of 

aggressive behavior in physical or verbal 

terms, in most cases it is directed against 

relatives or adults) and violation of behavior 

– a group aggressive type of violation 

of behavior in the form of disobedience. A 

characteristic feature of the second group 

is aggressive behavior – the dominant, 

manifested in the form of group activity 

in the company of peers. This behavior appears 

outside the home. It includes absenteeism, 

destructive acts of vandalism, serious 

physical aggression or attacks against 

others. [2] An important characteristic of 

this behavior is significant influence of a 

group of peers on the actions of children 

and their extreme need for dependence, 

expressed in the need to be a member of 

the group. 

Regardless of the direction and characteristics 

of behavior in most approaches, 

aggressiveness is the main qualitative 

characteristic of behavior disorders. 

Therefore, it is necessary to determine 

the causes of behavioral disorder, while 

taking into account age-related characteristics, 

since primary school age 

children form the foundation of moral 

behavior, the adoption of the rules of behavior 

and norms, and the formation of a 

public personality orientation. 

A child suffering from violation of behavior 

strives in various ways to attract 

the attention of older adults, to gain 

access to unwanted objects or actions, 

or, conversely, to avoid knowledge that 

is unpleasant for him. The destructive 



direction is divided into two groups: 

violation of behavior – a single aggressive 

type (the dominance of aggressive 

behavior in physical or verbal terms, in 

most cases it is directed against relatives 

or adults) and violation of behavior – a 

group aggressive type of violation of 

behavior in the form of disobedience. 

A characteristic feature of the second 

group is aggressive behavior – the dominant, 

manifested in the form of group 

activity in the company of peers. This 

behavior appears outside the home. It 

includes absenteeism, destructive acts of 

vandalism, serious physical aggression or 

attacks against others. 

In pedagogy, the following methods 

are used to correct violations of children’s 

behavior: art therapy, biblotherapy, music 

therapy, speech therapy, game therapy, 

psychotherapy. The game helps to create 

trusting relationships between group 

members: relieves tension, fear, anxiety, 

raises self-esteem. There is one more, no 

less effective method, which is based on 

motor expression, facial expressions, pantomime, 

which is called – psycho-gymnastics. 

The exercises are aimed at achieving 

two goals: the tension is reduced and the 

emotional distance of the group members 

is reduced. An example of an exercise 

to relieve stress: a child should imagine 

that he is walking on a warm sand at the 

sea, swims in a cool sea, etc. 

The famous American psychologist C. 

Rogers has developed a psychological 

training method on the principle of «here 

and now»: the awareness and emotional 

experiences of each of the participants, 

the ability to put themselves in the position 

of another person and to look at the 

situation through his eyes. Peter Lesgaft 

believed that physical culture has a beneficial 

effect on the psychological state 

of a person. “Mental well-being” is the 

coherence of mental processes and functions, 

the harmony of the individual, the 

sense of integrity, internal balance [4], 

that physical need is movement and that 

it is genetically laid down. Certain motor 

acts are responsible for the psychological 

state, reduce psycho-emotional stress, 

aggression, increase efficiency and the 

desire for study. 

As part of this study, a program was 

developed to correct behavioral disorders 

in primary school children using choreography 

in the training process on land in 

the synchronized swimming section. The 

study was conducted at the Youth Center 

“Yunost” in Moscow for synchronized 

swimming, “Trud”, Moscow, Warsaw highway, 

14. Ten children of primary school 

age took part. The study was conducted 

with the full consent of their parents. The 

selection of subjects was carried out on 

the personal attitude of the children. The 

children showed behavioral disturbances 

in the form of rebellion, stubbornness and 

disobedience in the training process. 

Particular attention was paid to the 

condition of children during classes in 

the choreography room – with external 

signs of fatigue, physical activity ceased, 

and the child’s attention was directed to 

calm activities. 

Further training was more successful, 

the children perceived the information 

better and followed the instructions of 

the supervisor. 

Physical activity of different directions 

and their durations can produce different 

effect in duration. The urgent effect 

(it may be temporary) is due to a separate 

cycle of physical activity. Based on the urgent 

effect, the mental state is assessed 

immediately after exercise, this effect is a 

decrease in anxiety. 

Correctional methods are closely related 

to educational methods. For example, 

the method of persuasion is always 

a natural continuation of the method of 

persuasion; encouragement and punishment 

are applied both in correction and 

in upbringing [1]. The most common correction 

of children’s behavior is the formation 

of interest in any type of activity. 

Synchronized swimming includes almost 

all methods of correcting behavior 

disorders: music therapy, because 

all movements are performed to music, 

thereby developing hearing, and the 

child is immersed in the right atmosphere; 

speech therapy – throughout the 

lesson, the teacher talks with the children; 

game therapy – with children of 

primary school age it is necessary to play 

educational games in order to unite children 

and defuse the training process. 

To determine the current problems of 

children, it was necessary to divide them 

into two groups of 10 subjects. For this, 

a children’s apperception test was conducted. 

The Children’s Apperception Test 

(CAT) was developed by Leopold and 

Sonya Bellak and belongs to the class 

of interpretative techniques, where the 

meaningful content of needs, attitudes, 

conflicts is projected. 

CAT is designed to facilitate understanding 

of children’s attitudes towards 

the most significant figures and incentives. 

In the test we were given several 

situations reflecting the manifestation 

of the current problems of the child. The 

test is based on special pictures to get 

answers to the main problems, such as 

acceptance of the adult world, aggressive 

imagination, fear of loneliness. The 

test is intended for children from 5 to 12 

years. The test lasts for 20-30 minutes. 

Testing is carried out individually, it is positioned 

not as a test, but as a game. In a 

certain order, the child is presented with 

pictures, and the task is to tell a story 

about the pictures [5]. 

At the end of testing, information was 

obtained about the main aspirations, 

needs of the subject, the impacts exerted 

on him, conflicts that arise in interaction 

with other people. For children with behavioral 

disorders a program for the social 

adaptation of primary school children 

with behavioral disorders was developed. 

The program “Health choreography” was 

used, aimed at the development of physical 

qualities, cognitive means of physical 

culture, developed by P. F. Lesgaft for correcting 

children’s behavior. The program 

consisted of the two Parts: theoretical and 

practical. The practical part included classes 

in choreography and physiotherapy exercises 

for 8 lessons of 45 minutes. 

Mutual understanding of the teacher 

with the child and full trust were established. 

Only in this case, an effective result 

from the classes was provided. Each 

child needs an individual approach as 

each problem is different. 

For effective corrective work, it is necessary 

to develop new individual forms 

and teaching methods that affect each 

child. The educational process is long, the 

character of the child is formed gradually, 

with hard work of the teacher. 

It is necessary to correct behavior 

of the child every day in the family, at 

school, in additional sections, and only 

then a positive result will be achieved. 

A practical study of the problem of 

correcting violations in children’s behavior 

by means of synchronized swimming, 

in particular by methods of choreography, 

made it possible to identify the characteristics 

of children, causes and factors 

influencing violations in children’s behavior, 

which are necessary for developing a 

program for correcting violations in primary 

school children behavior by means 

of choreography. According to the results 

and conclusions obtained during the 

implementation of the pedagogical experiment, 

we can say that the proposed 

program for correcting primary school 

children behavioral disorders is effective..

FORMATION OF THE THE CONCEPT 

OF A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE 

AMONG STUDENTS

• Abstract: the paper presents a method of forming students 

‘understanding of the need to preserve and strengthen their health, 

which will create prerequisites for effective personal and professional 

activities in the future 

• Key words: health, healthy lifestyle, motivation of healthy lifestyle. 

n the Russian Federation today, almost 

I one sixth of the population are people 

aged 15-24 (20 million 359 thousand). 

Of these, about 4.7 million are enrolled in universities, 

whose educational programs provide for 

THE QUESTIONNAIRES UNANIMOUSLY (97%) RECOGNIZED 

THE NEED TO LEAD A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE, BUT ONLY 35% 

OF RESPONDENTS SUBSTANTIATED THIS NEED WITH 

THE REQUIREMENTS OF SOCIAL LIFE, LINKING HEALTH 

AND SOCIAL ACTIVITY, THE ABILITY TO OVERCOME LIFE 

DIFFICULTIES; WHILE 65% OF RESPONDENTS ANSWERED 

THAT “HEALTH CONTRIBUTES TO BEAUTY”, 

“BEAUTY IS A PERSONAL SUCCESS”. 

the use of physical education as an instrument of 

health protection and health formation. Almost 

42% of studies in the discipline «physical education» 

students miss because of diseases of various 

genesis. At the same time, about 80% cannot pass 

the TRP standards in the run for 3000 meters and 

52% cannot pull up on the bar. In this regard, the 

teaching staff of the Department of Physical Education 

MSSUOR № 1 sets itself the task of forming 

students’ understanding of the need to maintain 

and strengthen their health, which will subsequently 

create conditions for effective personal 

and professional activities. 

Health, according to academician V. P. Kaznacheev, 

is the process of preserving and developing 

mental, physical and biological abilities 

of a person, his optimal ability to work, 

social activity with a maximum life span [3]. 

It is no secret that one of the most important 

components of health is carbohydrate metabolism 

and, as its manifestation, the level of 

weight. In Russia, according to the most conservative 

estimates, 25% of the population are 

overweight, and 18% are obese. In some age 

groups, these indicators are significantly higher 

( 75% of women aged 40–55 years old have 

excess weight; 46% – obesity). Among young 

people (18–25 years old) 8–9% of respondents 

are overweight. Excess weight is a powerful 

factor in the development of atherosclerosis 

and diabetes. So, almost 90% of patients with 



type 2 diabetes are obese. Over the past five 

years, their number has increased by 11%. An 

important role in the development of obesity, 

which is based on insulin resistance, is played 

by abdominal visceral adipose tissue. Normally, 

this tissue “swaddles” our internal organs 

with a thin layer, including the heart, liver, 

lungs, intestines, pancreas, and even some 

vessels, thus protecting them from hypothermia, 

shock, tremors, and the like. However, 

with the accumulation of excess body weight 

(30–35%), the visceral cover turns into a bulky 

mattress, which compresses the internal organs, 

disrupting their blood circulation and 

metabolism. It should be borne in mind that 

visceral adipose tissue is a powerful endocrine 

organ that synthesizes the stress hormone 

cortisol. Accordingly, the increased activity of 

abdominal adipose tissue can lead the human 

body to a state of chronic stress, forcing all 

organs to work with increased stress. In addition, 

excess adipose tissue is a «trap for male 

sex hormones», it turns them into female ones. 

As a result, men have impaired sexual function, 

which leads to impotence and infertility. 

Women have a similar situation, only with the 

opposite effect. Visceral adipose tissue becomes 

a generator of male sex hormones with 

corresponding negative manifestations [1]. 

The question is how to optimize the volume of 

visceral adipose tissue. There is a misconception 

that visceral fat is easy to get rid of due to 

diet or through liposuction. However, as scientific 

observations have shown, it is impossible 

to get rid of visceral fat by such methods, 

in principle. In fact, in practice of maintaining 

health, the main way to get rid of excessive accumulation 

of visceral fat deposits is moderate 

physical activity of aerobic orientation in combination 

with balanced diet, the energy value 

of which should not exceed the level of calories 

consumed. Thus, the analysis of scientific 

publications and the medical and pedagogical 

experience of our colleagues only confirms the 

importance of healthy lifestyle to maintain individual 

health [4]. 

Objective. Determine the level of understanding 

“health” by university students and their motivation 

for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. 

Materials and research methods. 120 students 

were examined (70 women 18–20 years old 

and 50 men 18–20 years old). The survey team 

was formed by random sampling. A sociological 

survey of this group was conducted in the form 

of an individual group questionnaire using open 

and closed questions. 

Research results and discussion. To the 

question: “What is a healthy lifestyle, set priorities 

in order of importance”, the majority (70% 

of boys and 88.5% of girls) gave the highest 

value to the answer “do not use drugs”, in second 

place – “do not drink”, in third – «no smoking». 

At the same time, the answer “to engage 

in physical education or sports” is only in fifth 

place, the students have only the eleventh and 

ninth places, respectively, in terms of self-improvement 

and proper nutrition, dieting and 

caloric control of food according to the results 

of the survey. The questionnaires unanimously 

(97%) recognized the need to lead a healthy 

lifestyle, but only 35% of respondents substantiated 

this need with the requirements of social 

life, linking health and social activity, the ability 

to overcome life difficulties; while 65% of 

respondents answered that “health contributes 

to beauty”, “beauty is a personal success”. It is 

interesting that at the same time, the majority 

(87%) of the respondents admitted that effectiveness 

directly depends on lifestyle. Thus, we 

see a contradiction in the conceptual component 

(healthy lifestyle) and, as a result, in the 

motivational structure of consciousness. Only 

20% of respondents are ready to lead a healthy 

lifestyle in order to «fully exercise their abilities», 

to «be always in shape» – 35%, and the majority 

(45%) – in order to «be beautiful.» To the question, 

“what circumstances could prompt you to 

change your lifestyle?” the first place (60% of 

the respondents) is a serious illness, the second 

(20%) is the general unsatisfactory state of 

health. “The desire to be healthy” is found only 

in single answers (1-2%). 

Based on our research, we can draw the following 

conclusions: 

1. Among students there is no common understanding 

of a healthy lifestyle, the need to comply 

with it, there is no motivation for any changes in 

their lifestyle. 

2. The established facts require measures to 

increase motivation for physical activity of the 

examined.

CONTROL, DETERMINATION, INDUSTRIOUSNESS, ETC.),

GORSHKOV A. G. 

he tasks of the All-Russian physical culture 

and sports complex «Ready for 

labour and defense» refers to the formation 

of the population’s conscious needs for 

systematic physical education and sports, physical 

self-improvement, and maintaining a healthy 

lifestyle; increasing the general level of knowledge 

of the population about the means, methods and 

forms of organizing independent studies, including 

the use of modern information technologies. 

The result of the implementation of the tasks 

set should be a value attitude of the individual to 

health, physical culture and sports activities, to 

himself as a subject of physical education. 

The student’s value attitude to physical culture 

and sports activities reflects his level of competence 

in this area and can be conditionally represented 

through motivational-value, operational, 

emotional-volitional and practical-activity components. 

The motivational-value component reflects 

the system of needs, motives, meanings, interests, 

value orientations, beliefs, attitudes, organizing 

and directing this activity. 

The main force that regulates behavior and 

encourages a person to physical-sports activity 

is its biological (movement, self-preservation, 

recovery, communication, cognition) and social 

(search for friendships, respect and support, the 

desire to be in the spotlight, helping, avoiding) 

punishment, overcoming difficulties, self-esteem, 

self-expression, self-affirmation, self-realization) 

needs. Their awareness is reflected in specific motives: 

• physical improvement (improving physique, 

posture, culture of movements, the development 

of psychophysical qualities, etc.), reflecting 

the desire to have health, performance; to 

be ready for work, military service, family life; 

attract the opposite sex; take a worthy place in 

your environment; to achieve recognition, respect; 

• friendly solidarity, dictated by the desire to be 

with friends, communicate, collaborate with 

them; 

• obligations associated with the need to attend 



physical education classes, sports classes, to 

fulfill the requirements of the curriculum; 

• rivalry, characterizing the desire to stand out, 

to assert oneself in one’s environment, to gain 

authority, to raise one’s prestige, to be the first, 

to achieve as much as possible; 

• imitation, accompanied by the desire to be like 

an outstanding personality, who has special 

qualities and virtues acquired as a result of this 

activity; following the fashion to be athletic; 

preservation of family sports traditions; 

• sports expressing a focus on achieving any significant 

results; 

• procedural, in which attention is focused not 

on the result of the activity, but on its process; 

• gaming, acting as a means of entertainment, 

nervous relaxation and relaxation; 

• comfort, determining favorable conditions 

for classes, the necessary psychological climate, 

etc. 

As a rule, several motives stimulate physical 

culture and sports activities, dominant ones are 

reinforced by secondary ones. In different motives, 

similar needs can be realized, and, on the 

contrary, different needs can stand behind similar 

motives, for example, on the basis of the need 

for self-affirmation, motives of physical self-improvement, 

rivalry, sporting achievements, both 

individually and simultaneously, arise. But one 

motive, for example, it is a game, may include the 

need for entertainment, relaxation, movement, 

physical activity, emotional discharge, communication, 

and self-affirmation. 

According to M. A. Arvisto, the values of physical 

culture and sports activities are distributed by students 

into three ranks by their importance appropriately. 

The first includes values related to Physical 

“I” (physical qualities, health, physique), the functional 

content of classes (high mobility, physical 

activity, the peculiarity of emotional experiences), 

aspects of direct self-actualization (success, selfmanifestation, 

self-assertion), moral-volitional 

qualities (will, stability) and a sense of duty. 

The second rank represents forms of social recognition 

(authority among others, media coverage), 

communication (friends, circle of acquaintances), 

beauty (entertainment, expressiveness). 

The third rank is knowledge, material values 

and some aspects of sexual behavior. 

The need for physical culture and sports activities 

is facilitated by the value orientations of 

students, which determine their interests in its 

specific types. Interest reflects a selective attitude 

to an object that has significance and emotional 

appeal. When the level of awareness of interest 

is low, the emotional attractiveness of physical 

culture and sports activities prevails. The higher 

the level of his awareness, the more manifested 

is the understanding of the objective significance 

of this activity. 

The indicators of the motivational-value component 

are formed needs, motives, value orientations, 

interests, beliefs and attitudes that ensure 

regular physical-sports activity and cognitive activity 

necessary for its competent use. 

The operational component is determined by 

theoretical, methodological and practical knowledge, 

strategic, tactical and technical skills and the 

implementation of physical culture and sports activities. 

Theoretical knowledge covers the history of 

physical culture, basic concepts and terms, leading 

scientific ideas and patterns of the human body in 

motor activity and its implementation. Methodological 

knowledge reflects the ways of using theoretical 

knowledge in practice, methods of organization, 

training, development, improvement of physical 

culture and sports activities. Practical knowledge allows 

you to effectively perform the necessary physical 

exercises, motor actions, facilitate the mastery of 

new forms of movement. The strategic skills of physical 

culture and sports activities help to carry out its 

planning, set long-term goals, select and adjust the 

means to achieve them. Tactical skills are associated 

with the comprehension of causal relationships 

THE STUDENT’S VALUE ATTITUDE TO PHYSICAL CULTURE 

AND SPORTS ACTIVITIES REFLECTS HIS LEVEL OF COMPETENCE 

IN THIS AREA AND CAN BE CONDITIONALLY REPRESENTED 

THROUGH MOTIVATIONAL-VALUE, OPERATIONAL, 

EMOTIONAL-VOLITIONAL AND PRACTICAL-ACTIVITY 

COMPONENTS. 

in motor activity, the active handling of acquired 

knowledge and skills. Technical skills reflect an understanding 

of the semantic structure of motor actions 

for the effective solution of motor tasks. 

The transfer of knowledge into the personal 

beliefs of students and the clear provision of their 

application in practice is facilitated by: 

• mastery of the basic terms and concepts in the 

field of physical education; 

• assessment of the appropriateness of applying 

the acquired knowledge; 

• analysis of educational process, the results of 

each lesson (what I learned new, what skills I 

learned, what is important to me and what is 

optional, what I will use in life, what needs to 

be improved); 

• disclosure of the effect of causal relationships 

of lifestyle, physical culture and sports activities 

on the mental and physical condition of 

the body; 

• the use of diverse methods and means of physical 

education in educational and professional 

activities in changing living conditions; 

• the study and comparison of various wellness 

systems and types of physical culture and 

sports activities, the selection and development 

on their basis of classes that take into account 

individual characteristics, helping other 

students with this;

• creative production of acquired knowledge on 

their life; 

• discussions, disputes, discussion of prepared 

essays, search tasks, etc. 

For practical development of the physical culture 

skills and sports activities, it is necessary to 

determine for themselves the obligatory minimum 

of knowledge that leads to their comprehension. 

Any kind of motor activity is directed 

and determined, first of all, by the meaning of 

the motor task, the effectiveness of which depends 

on its content, vital significance. The physical 

load that is the same in volume and intensity 

will not be the same for students who perceive 

it differently, which is why it is important for the 

student to understand the cause-effect relationships 

(why such a load or exercise is necessary, 

why they need to be done that way) and their 

value-semantic guidelines), focus on achieving 

specific goals). The higher the level of awareness 

of the importance of physical exercises, the more 

successful and positive effect of physical culture 

and sports activities will be. In turn, this activity, 

while demanding certain qualities of the student, 

expands his ideas about his abilities, encourages 

further improvement. 

IT IS USEFUL FOR STUDENTS TOGETHER WITH THE TEACHER 

TO DISCUSS AND ANALYZE THE RESULTS OF THE PRACTICAL 

PARTS OF THEMATIC TASKS (WHAT IS DONE CORRECTLY, WHAT 

MISTAKES ARE MADE, HOW THEY CAN BE CORRECTED), AND 

RECEIVE INDIVIDUAL RECOMMENDATIONS 

FOR IMPROVEMENT. 

For the optimal development of new motor 

skills, their directed impact on the development 

of certain physical qualities and abilities, it is advisable 

to use methods of regulated exercises 

(clearly prescribed program of movements) and 

sensory (using visual and auditory perception, 

muscle sensations for visualization). For complex 

improvement, the game (creation of game 

plots, playing interaction schemes for playing) 

and competitive (rivalry for superiority or high 

achievement) methods are suitable. 

It is useful for students together with the 

teacher to discuss and analyze the results of the 

practical parts of thematic tasks (what is done 

correctly, what mistakes are made, how they can 

be corrected), and receive individual recommendations 

for improvement. Further consolidation 

and improvement of motor skills occurs in the 

process of their reiteration in the changing conditions 

of training sessions, in extracurricular physical 

culture and sports activities, in everyday life, 

on vacation. 

In the process of mastering motor skills (especially 

at the initial stage), uncertainty and 

awkwardness may arise due to mistakes made. 

Overcoming such difficulties depends on the student’s 

ability to master complexly coordinated 

movements, on the conditions of their implementation, 

the degree of knowledge, determined 

by the phase of acquisition of motor skills (generalization, 

concentration, automation). If significance 

of the activity is recognized and there is a 

desire to learn, then difficulties are overcome. Any 

movement is associated with personal attitudes, 

an understanding of the motor task, attitude to 

it, volitional efforts. At first, many students’ motor 

perceptions are poorly expressed, so a constant 

analysis of their feelings is required for various 

options for performing a motor task, comparing 

them with the corrective instructions of the 

teacher. The ability to clearly perceive and regulate 

the parameters of one’s own movements, 

sensory signals of the body, mastery of it, inclusion 

in various types and forms of physical culture 

and sports activities, development of new forms 

of movements, updating and a variety of exercises 

bring satisfaction, help maintain a good functional 

state and motivate aimed at it activity. 

It is necessary to form skills: mastering and 

performing individual motor actions; carrying out 

complexes of exercises (general and professional 

physical training, correction of deviations, disease 

prevention, relaxation, etc.), parts and the whole 

lesson, leisure activities; participation and refereeing 

in competitions, self-control of physical development, 

condition, preparedness; reflections 

of physical culture and sports activities. Creative 

use of the acquired skills in various conditions 

and situations helps maintain the necessary level 

of physical and functional preparedness during 

the training period, adjusts one’s mental and 

physical development, organizes outdoor activities, 

prevents general and occupational diseases, 

injuries, creates the prerequisites for further selfeducation 

and self-development. 

The operational component includes the system 

of knowledge and skills that ensure organization 

and implementation of physical improvement, 

activities in the field of physical culture, due 

to the profession. 

The emotional-volitional component reflects 

emotions and efforts that are manifested in physical 

culture and sports activities. Positive emotions 

(pleasure, joy, happiness) arise from the dynamism, 

novelty, variety of this activity, communication associated 

with it, learning about one’s physical capabilities, 

discovering new sensations, feelings of 

“muscle joy”, inspiration, harmony with the environment, 

success of the result, achievement goals 

(gaining experience in physical improvement, improving 

physical condition, improving sports qualifications, 

etc.). Negative emotions (dissatisfaction, 

despair, disappointment, sadness) can arise when 

the attitudes do not correspond to real impressions 

or achievements, and neutral ones (calmness, 

indifference) – with internal detachment, lack 

of motivation for this activity. 



Both internal factors (value orientations, level 

of development (self-awareness, physical improvement 

and preparedness), motives of this 

activity, identification with the group, experience 

working on oneself, etc.) and external (pedagogical 

influences, level of development of the group) 

influence student’s satisfaction with the results 

of physical-sports activities. The comfortable 

psychological atmosphere in the classroom, the 

situations of success, the optimistic attitude of 

the student towards his abilities, mutual understanding 

with the teacher and other students of 

the group are important. 

The feeling of satisfaction with physical culture 

and sports activities is connected both 

with its result and the process. Efficiency can 

be expressed not only by objective indicators 

(morphofunctional; level and quality of special 

knowledge, skills, motor preparedness), but also 

subjective (satisfaction from the acquired functional 

state, compliance of one’s physical conditions 

with social requirements and personal 

aspirations, performance, muscular sensations, 

aesthetics your body and movements, overcoming 

difficulties, finding creative solutions, etc.). 

Observing your condition and highlighting even 

minor successes with adequate self-esteem of 

efforts lead to self-satisfaction, confidence in 

one’s capabilities, and the elimination of one’s 

own limitations in physical culture and sports. 

To develop and maintain satisfaction with the 

result, further stress overcoming, and labor are 

required. Interest in the methods, techniques of 

employment and enthusiasm for them allow you 

to enjoy the process itself, while self-knowledge 

and reflection play a large role; the use of various 

forms, means and methods of physical education, 

including non-traditional systems of physical 

exercises (rhythmic, athletic gymnastics, 

elements of yoga, etc.); creative activity in modifying 

exercises, adapting them to their abilities, 

finding new original options, non-standard solutions 

leading to their updating without changing 

the focus. 

Physical culture and sports activity require 

manifestation of volitional qualities (determination, 

discipline, organization, endurance, perseverance, 

self-control, determination, industriousness, 

etc.), which are largely determined by 

motives for action, energy activity, moral and 

moral guidelines of the individual. You should 

be prepared for practical efforts to achieve your 

goals related to this activity. For volitional regulation 

of behavior, you can use such means as the 

connection of the motive with one or another 

need (creating a situation of reward and punishment), 

a promise, appealing for support to another 

person, identifying oneself with an ideal 

pattern and standard of behavior. 

The emotional-volitional component reflects 

the level of satisfaction, volitional and moral 

manifestations in physical culture and sports activities. 

The practical-activity component reveals a 

willingness to translate the relevant knowledge 

and methodological skills into practice, in regular 

physical culture and sports activities. The level of 

this readiness in many respects depends on the 

worldview, the goals of student education, the 

desire to interact and realize oneself in the specific 

conditions of classes, his abilities and volitional 

efforts, and favorable emotional state of health. 

Of paramount importance is the experience of 

focused training in compliance with its inherent 

principles, the skillful selection of its forms, means 

and methods, and the productivity of communication. 

FOR PRACTICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE PHYSICAL CULTURE 

SKILLS AND SPORTS ACTIVITIES, IT IS NECESSARY TO 

DETERMINE FOR THEMSELVES THE OBLIGATORY MINIMUM OF 

KNOWLEDGE THAT LEADS TO THEIR COMPREHENSION. 

ANY KIND OF MOTOR ACTIVITY IS DIRECTED AND 

DETERMINED, FIRST OF ALL, BY THE MEANING OF THE MOTOR 

TASK, THE EFFECTIVENESS OF WHICH DEPENDS ON ITS 

CONTENT, VITAL SIGNIFICANCE. 

The competent readiness of the student for 

regular sports activities is in coherence: 

• with practical experience of occupations corresponding 

to individual characteristics, motives, 

interests, needs; 

• with the achievement of the optimal level of 

physical and functional fitness for the period 

of study; 

• with the acquisition of skills to improve and 

correct individual physical development, functional 

and motor capabilities; 

• with the development of vital motor skills; 

• with the mastery of the basics of the technique 

of sports movements, their application 

in sports, recreational and leisure activities; 

• with the creative use of means, forms and 

methods of physical education; 

• with self-affirmation and self-realization 

through motor experience; 

• with the expansion of the range of motor skills 

that contribute to efficiency and readiness for 

professional activity; 

• with the productivity of communication that 

accompanies this activity. 

The practical activity component includes a 

competent readiness for regular physical culture 

and sports activities.

managed to make them love 

the international language of 

communication. The event was 

attended by all students, from 

primary school students of 

grade 2 up to graduate courses 

students.

were ready to make every 

effort to ensure that the area 

around the school would 

shine with cleanliness.

COLLEGE FLAG TRAVELS 

THE PLANET 

raveling of the flag of the Moscow College of Olympic Reserve No. 1 has long ago 

T 

gone beyond the borders of Moscow. This year the flag travelled to Crimea with a 

friend of the school – Yuri Volkov, a member of the Night Wolves motorcycle club, 

Honored Traveler of Russia, a member of the Russian Geographical Society, the CCM 

of the Federation of Sports Tourism, a motorcyclist who entered the Russian Book of Records three 

times, a record holder of the Book of Records Guinness. Travelling the world on a motorcycle, 

Yuri visited over 80 countries in seven years. Wherever Yuri Volkov goes, he representes the flag 

of the Moscow College of Olympic Reserve No. 1. 

STOP – GASFORT MOUNTAIN 

Motor club «Night Wolves» is known even to those who are infinitely 

far from motorcycling. The name «Night Wolves», as well as the name 

of Alexander Zaldostanov (better known as the biker Surgeon) now 

and then appear on the pages of the Russian and foreign press for a 

variety of reasons. “Night Wolves” is not just a biker organization, it is 

a kind of meme and a social phenomenon. In 2015, the authorities of 

Sevastopol leased bikers a plot of 267 hectares near Gasfort Mountain. 

According to the initial plans of the Night Wolves, a branch of the 

Patriot military-patriotic park was to be built here together with the 

Ministry of Defense. Few people know that during the Second World 

War the headquarters of the Navy was in the mountain, and in order to 

disguise it from enemy invaders, it was decided to build a plant. 

In the seventies, limestone was actively mined on Gasfort Mountain. 

Grandiose mines, tunnels, buildings were erected, which to a large extent 

distorted the landscape and nature of the area. As it turned out 

later, it was just a cover. The Soviet authorities built a shelter here in 

case of a nuclear war. Soon, this project was curtailed, and in its place 

a huge artificial reservoir was formed. 

A teacher of the college – Eremin Maxim Viktorovich – also visited 

Crimea this year. 

STOP – CRIMEA 

Not only for the sea is Crimea famous. There are so many 

interesting and mysterious places that are worth visiting, 

breaking away from a beach holiday! Gasfort Mountain 

is a unique creation of nature, man and history. A huge 

number of tourists visiting this area, which is increasing 

year after year, is a proof of this. Everyone who has ever 

been here will certainly wish to return again. Return cool 

and crystal clear waters of the technogenic lake. Return 

to incredibly beautiful sunset, burning the top of the 

mountain.

STOP – 

KAMCHATKA 

Kamchatka, located on the northeastern 

part of Russia, is a unique region, full of 

contrasts and completely unlike the rest 

of the country. Volcanoes here are adjacent 

to glaciers, boiling geysers and hot 

springs with fast rivers, waterfalls with 

lakes. This natural diversity could not help 

but become the basis for the development 

of tourism, in particular, such directions 

as expeditionary, skiing and extreme 

tourism. 

STOP – 

NORDKAPP 

The northernmost point of Europe is 

Cape Nordkapp in Norway. From May 

31 to July 31, the sun does not set 

behind the Arctic Circle, day or night, 

and romantically-minded tourists fall 

in love with the beauty of the Scandinavian 

country. Cape Nordkapp – the 

translation from Norwegian Nordkapp 

(or North Cape – English) means – 

North Cape. 

STOP – 

POLAR CIRCLE 

IN FINLAND 

The Arctic Circle is a parallel lying at 66 ° 

33´45.9˝ north latitude. It is the southernmost 

point where the sun can be higher 

or lower than the horizon for days – these 

phenomena are called polar day – in summer, 

and polar night (Kaamos in Finnish) – 

in winter. In Rovaniemi, the Arctic Circle 

runs through the village of Santa Claus, 

located eight kilometers north of the city 

center, where it is marked by a clear line. 

The village of Santa Claus is a popular 

place for those who want to cross the Arctic 

Circle: here you can even get a certificate 

of its intersection. 


STOP – 

LONDON 

English teacher of the school, 

MSSUOR No. 1, Yevteeva Ekaterina, 

visited London this summer and 

took a picture with the «visiting 

card» of the city – Tower Bridge. 

Tower Bridge – a movable ferry 

across the River Thames in central 

London, near the Tower of London. 

This is one of the most popular attractions 

in London, which is easily 

recognized even by those who have 

never been to the capital of the United 

Kingdom. Thousands of tourists 

flock here every year, discovering 

the splendor of this Gothic building. 

STOP – 

MARMARIS 

The teacher of professional disciplines – Volobuev Alexei Leonidovich 

– visited one of the most popular tourist resorts in 

Turkey – Marmaris. The city and resort of Marmaris is located in 

southwestern Turkey, on the coast at the junction of the Aegean 

and Mediterranean Seas. Marmaris is located in a bay surrounded 

by mountains, access to the sea covers the island, so the water 

here is almost always calm and clean. The city is surrounded 

by national parks, which are protected by unique pine groves 

with their inherent ecosystems. There are about hundred hotels 

with officially assigned stars and about 500 mini-hotels, guest 

houses, apart-hotels. More than 1000 villas, houses and apartments 

are for rent. This resort is often called “Turkish Nice”, a city 

of fun and celebration with a vibrant nightlife and inexhaustible 

opportunities for entertainment and outdoor activities.
