Former President of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) Vladimir Drachev in a conversation with , he spoke about what he didn’t like in 2022, and also urged to be more careful with Russian athletes.
Russian biathletes won one silver and three bronze at the Beijing Olympics.
– Above all, I did not like the nervous preparation for the Olympic Games. Especially in the women’s team, when nothing worked at all and all starts were missed. This nervousness accumulated and transmitted every day, the beginning and the stage of the World Cup.
In my opinion, only we can do that. We have to win, and if you lose you are immediately bad. Well, that doesn’t happen, we have to be more careful with our athletes! For some reason, we still have much more problematic issues than any existing European team. This trend has been going on for a long time, we are tempered by it.
Critics from different people always come, we started stifling a strong women’s team. In any case, you must support and inspire! Sport does not end with a race, an Olympics or a season. It is always necessary to give more positive to the sportsmen. They should love sports. And we, especially the coaches, are starting to smother them. This negative must be removed, it must not jump.
Any failure – and immediately threatens that everything will be removed from the competition … And who should be put in their place? They are the best ! Why are you spreading the best on the wall like that? We need to take care of our guys, – said Drachev “”.
