children's basketball coach from kharkiv who for the first time on the day of the great war had to single-handedly save her 12 girls on the eve of the full-scale invasion of the russian federationk the team from kharkiv to kyiv for the semi-finals of the ukrainian basketball championship and here at the base in puscha-vodytsia right next to the summer camp gostomeli, which was stormed by russian troops. they met the first day of the war. how did the events develop? how did the woman save the children and where did she find strength ? we congratulate you on the air. we congratulate you in return. so , what was the first day of the great war like for you and for the girls with whom you came to the tournament in the capital well, first of all, when the war started, our girls were sleeping in their beds parents, yes, we have housing for six teams in puscha-vodica, and when we got a call, our parents called us, we gathered together as a coaching staff on the first floor and thought what to do with us, and it was february 24th. we were in puscha-vodica, but already in the evening we heard it more er ruptures and er at first we went through the bomb shelter to the nearby maternity hos

are wonderful girls, but today, on the thirtieth anniversary of our victory, i gathered the basketball federation evening. and i'll tell you that they couldn't come. well, for a variety of reasons, the main reason is that relationships today are such that every athlete wanted in his soul, except for the good, remembers nothing. he is afraid of how everyone will treat him up to the house, but i'm talking about these girls. and about one, i'll be on the second to speak only to the enthusiastic tone, these are the people who helped us win. well , when it turns out to communicate, there is no antagonism when we talk on the phone. i, apart from kind words and apart from wishes, health, which constantly desire me, except for warmth. i don't feel anything. you know those who want to quarrel nasheeds quietly want to make a hated company out of us. they are greatly mistaken; a huge number of people in ukraine, i have no doubt, remember us, we are friends with us. after all, you were performing. no longer under the soviet flag, not yet an ambassador russia it was the cis team yes or what? it was called the

the sport of petr mikhailovich how did the work with the athletics federation and with the basketball federationsports and, in this sense, we are completely going. ah, in the trend of those orders that the leadership designates when russia is a sports power. and this is all right. and despite the restrictions that now exist, on the contrary, we must do it. it seems to me that there is special attention, because to support athletes and motivate them to develop further, and so that interest in sports does not disappear, and in this sense, we are primarily focusing on mass children's sports. in particular, speaking about basketball. yes, we are such a new species, relatively speaking, an offshoot is three very interesting ones, but in fact a separate sport, which became olympic and that's not immediately. girls and boys girls and young people are two silvers, although it could even be gold, but nevertheless, this is a good big success and i really hope that we, too, have already brought them some little value additional to this work, and and it is very important that many people can go in for this

these failures will form an inferiority complex among young guys, the head of the national basketball federation maxim ryzhenkov is sure that this will not happen, especially today there are alternatives for the progress of potential team players, alas. no, you need to be aware that 12 clubs play in the vtb league, 10 of which are top russian clubs with absolutely stunning budgets and absolutely serious opportunities for hiring players to create conditions. some bonuses and so on in the selection of the coaching staff. and of course, compete with them financially. in the current conditions. it's not just impossible and unnecessary for us, besides, here is the same topic as kim's women's national team, there are a lot of players from the national team, which used to play in the base. uh, minska well smokey and they are playing today. eh, in russian too competitors from these clubs. uh, the vtb league is the same, sash is the same semenyuk, uh, fierce, well, and so on, some people can play top teams in the super league, therefore. um, of course chasing contracts, trying to save them with all your

thinking about the exchange that took place between the united states of america and the russian federation . basketballlayer greiner, i think. and if the russians have already resorted to such a step, they still have bad weapons, they need a person who has certain connections and who will be able to fix something for that how they welcome this exchange in telegram channels and their respective factories , which zakharova wrote about, but i would like to return to the same bitter man whom you mentioned and his statements and the younger truth. he is a programmer, and his otaka is a sharp critic of the elite leadership and the actions of the russian leadership in this war, and what role does he play? does he really have any power and can have it in the future when he talks about some political future? although when we talk about the future of russia it is already the joke is true, and so what role can he play , well, cucumbers are wonderful, we understand that he, er, there are no exes, yes. and about the fact that he always cooperated with the special services, er, there is also er, in social networks,
