this is a video and audio production 5 d w. i hope video will tune in the, in the middle part from the very 1st step i take on the diving board again because i started to feel those butterflies of my bedding dolores hernandez is among mexico's best drive, is preparing to qualify for the next olympic games but she's leading a double life at nazi, showcases her skills as a rising video game, which i really like that when i get home from training, i can turn on the stream and just forget everything. e mail me or the next goes aquatic athletes currently have massive financial problems. the delores has found a way to fight for her dream through online gaming. of

the dolores is already pasted success on the diving board, winning gold at the 2015 pan american games. now she's aiming to compete at hooks stood olympics, who lives here trying to rest, have life been in the school for 18 years doing what i love. i can and i started here in the pose of the crease and this pool be for returning here, brings back many memories required. oh, you one sec. hello for. can we still an advertisement in the newspaper where they were doing trials for diving school? and my dad told me, well, let's see for us, but at least 22nd. now i was 8 years old and it caught my attention how they jump. i know how they entered who, ma'am, on which i've been seeing them in the air and how they did all the tons. but that's when i began to develop a love for this boy that he considered a ticket up day was in his hand in a motor point for an important one. always,

my parents told me if you put your mind to it, you can be in the olympic games for me because in tokyo, dolores and hook on the catalina mendoza, which is non points away from winning bronze mexico. even though the conditions were far from ideal. seeing that the but i don't feel like i feel like touch there was a little more complication due to the pandemic in a menu of the year before i have final surgery and the rest on your 3 years before my brother died. and so they were a lot of emotions going on, but when i was there, i said you hear, you have to do it right. there's no other way. and i think it was a good result. easier perform. one of us went out. mexico has a long tradition in diving, looking to p, a is still a legend of to winning for olympic metals. next can drive as have stood a top of the podium, a total of 14 times, making it the nation's most successful olympic sport. and that legacy has

set the tone so many future athletes, including delores and things that i know if they were normally i try and 7 hours a day in the in the morning it's all about technique and dining in outside of it. and in the afternoon it's strength training. some of the stuff of mason's. yeah, of course. i mean because we just a few months away from the olympic games. i'm preparing and there are several options. the competence him lesson for francis and some of the will. but the most imposing competition is the last selection in mexico. yeah. which will decide the places for the athletes who are going to be in the big guy and i received in my yeah, i was wondering because the, it's a difficult process where they have some presence of what they must have been here . that is another big concern looming over her olympics dreams. in 2023 mexico's

national commission for physical culture and sports, caught its financial support for the mexican swimming federation. it faces accusations of embezzling more than a 150000000 paces following a conflict with world aquatics. the highest authority for water sports at an international level. the loss of vital funding men, mexico's aquatic athletes were forced to find alternative ways to fund the sporting korea's kevin berlin. for example, a gold medalist in the last pan american games. and one of mexico's great hopes that the power so lympics had to start his own coffee business to kate. his dream alive to mexico synchronized swimming team who also won gold at the pen and games. sold swim search and towels. while tokyo bronze medalist alejandro roscoe and gabriella, goodness even considered auctioning, that precious metals annual. but so last year we didn't have any competition

because they've had problems with the federation but who are parole? emma, on the, on the left. some training is important, but i didn't competition so you can see your mistakes for us at all. what can i change? what can i do for the next competition to reach 100 percent? i feel confident. i think that has been the most difficult thing for me using that rhythm of competition, sensitive, and in order to cope with the reduced financial support from the government. delores found her own solution just in front of him for the for as long as i can remember, i've always had to console all i know it was just the now and i had an older brother and since he was little, he also really liked video games so he invited me to play and from there i found a love for video games, of course, before he lost it, but it was still a kind of quality time or was it kind of that? no. so after training, she switch his roles,

the olympic type becomes low and pick up ways i'll bring on live because i'm going to show my background cost him. it's on the bed. why can't i catch the one that you left off? the lowest began gaming on, which is a way to switch off off the training. but now this hobby could become a financial avenue. can you tell me what it does is hamburg was almost always off to training. i come and play for an hour or 2 to de stress from the whole day that i'm on the manual bye. so then last year when the lack of support began, i so, so what can i do? like i said, i have to do something because this isn't going to be fixed soon as the elaborate that's put on slowly. and where am i going to get the resources? who am i competitions and everything was fine with confidence as a little bigger and associates a he was because, i mean,

i saw that which is growing along and i said, well, i mean i'm a bit of an inch of it, but i think it could work a lot of videos i've done well, i have my colors and there are people who connect with me almost daily. right. and i've already made a community and you're not saying it's 9. me gaming hasn't replaced last funding. but delores knows that like any career perseverance will eventually bear fruit within 3, which is then it will support onto it. so you have 2 ways to get support. well, there is a said which is this commercials at all. is one of the others use visual coins with follow is can donates whatever they want in the metal canon and out was and then you can get subscribers. he pay you a certain amount each month. see it all kind of move on and say, okay, what are in onto which is very different from what i and with my diving scholarship

fed up with us. but i know that this is a fairly long process, e. my son's a lateral o m. and that obviously which doesn't cover my trips at the moment, but that's the dream was good. this means you for it on saturday, won't be i, you is a little more confidence in your boy. and i would like to have a little and you know, financial support is going to an animal combined as well. and they say they might, maybe someone goes to my channel because they had a bad day. or because i also want to the stress certainty and well i also think that satisfies me. i don't want to keep those up for to see can the deals dolores needs to rest now because in the coming days she needs to prepare for the next competition that could take her to the paris olympics after trip, as more than 700 kilometers to leon, dolores is about to compete with other mexican drive is to qualify for the world

cup that margin. delores is coach coffee with youtube bureaucratic issues yet another set back with you. i've been training with her for 14 years and in every competition she's been with me. she's the one that gives me security, the one that gives me confidence and everything i said before, the fact that she's not here well, it brings a bit of insecurity. you know, it was the same way to service the, the 1st round of diving from the 3 made a spring board, one by one. the mexican athletes execute the routines of various stalls, ends, difficulties despite everything delores is doing well the

she moves on to the next round, which will take place in a few hours. that will decide who makes it to the world cup, which will then provide them with a chance to qualify for the olympics. the competition is becoming increasingly close. dolores has to be at the very best of the last. john could decide everything

about the lawyers. stuff is a lapse in concentration and has to report or attend, which is punished with a penalty and effects the confidence the poor dr. quotes dolores has aspirations to qualify. after a promising performance, the dreams a shot it instead a runs a vasquez, and alejandro as to deal with go to doha, looking to secure their place at the next billing games. it's been a competition that i really didn't not enjoy at all. but let's none and analyze well the next competition and avoid the same mistake. this dolores takes a few days off to recuperate, into their cruise to the possibility of qualifying for the power. so lympics has not yet disappeared with no one lucky is. get the,

the good thing is that the road is not as a competency, and there is still one more competition to go to not in the environment. the 1st massey calling because i will return to training, increase the difficulty of the dives, and set some chemicals here. let me go ahead of time to turn on the console to get the racing results and restart the game. the most important thing in sports and video games in life is to have that patience which is needed to be able to achieve things to try and enjoy every day then that isn't that. oh yeah, the of the not laughing any more be why the the new electric vehicle force
