— How did you come up with the idea of inviting Sasha and Camila to curling?
“The girls themselves showed envy, turned to our athletes, and we supported this initiative with great pleasure. We not only have our figure skaters, but also football players, hockey players, Formula 1 racers, everyone wants to try curling, one of the hottest sports. With great enthusiasm, we support the zeal of our talented young athletes.
How did the girls experience their first training?
– A talented athlete is good at everything. At first they didn’t do very well, but by the end of the training they already felt confident. They understood the technique of curling and got used to it quite quickly. Now we are going to work so that Camila and Sasha not only try, but also prove themselves as curling athletes. Let’s try to attract them!
– Which skateboarder would you like to see?
— The curling family is open to everyone: figure skaters, volleyball players, basketball players, everyone is welcome. Curling is interesting because it’s a team game. We have enough opportunities to train everyone. It is a pity that there are not many rinks, but we are already discussing this matter with the Minister of Sports and in the near future they will build a new curling arena. Therefore, we are waiting for all athletes who will show the desire to train and play curling.
