Senior coach of the Russian cross-country ski team Egor Sorine told that Alexander And Natalia Terentiev they themselves decided to join his group and he, for his part, will do everything possible to return the athletes to the previous level and their further progress.
The Presidium of the Russian Ski Racing Federation (FLGR) on Thursday approved the list of candidates for the national team and the composition of the groups. In the near future, the project will be submitted for approval to the Ministry of Sports of the Russian Federation. The Terentyevs will leave Yuri Borodavko’s group to join Sorin.
— Alexander and Natalya are already accomplished athletes who have the right to choose the group, coach and environment they want. First of all, it is their choice, which was agreed with Yuri Viktorovich (Borodavko) and Elena Valerievna (Vyalbe). More specifically, it is worth asking why they decided to change groups. For my part, I will do my best to help the athletes improve. To begin with, they will probably have to return to their previous level. Natalia after maternity leave and Alexander after this year’s unsuccessful season. I hope to return to their level and, in the future, increase it,” Sorin told .
Terentyeva (formerly Nepryaeva) is an Olympic champion, three-time Olympic medalist, World Cup and Tour de Ski stage race winner. Terentyev is a two-time Olympic bronze medalist. The couple is now awaiting the birth of their first child.
