In Almaty from January 23 to January 27 the Kazakhstan Junior Championships (girls under 16-17 years) was held at specialized sport school of the highest achievements.
The senior coach of the women's national team Vadim Prisyazhnyuk in an interview to the official web site of the Kazakhstan Boxing Federation has led results of the last Junior Championships and also has told who can enter into the composition of the elite national team in the future.
- Vadim Eduardovich the Kazakhstan Junior Championships (girls under 16-17 years) was finished. As we know you and the coach of the national team Kairat Manashev looked through the candidates in the national team. Did you chose anyone?
- At the tournament we overviewed some probable candidates who will be able to join the main composition of the national team in one-two years. They are still very young. They are 15-16 years, that is 2002 and 2003 year of birth. They impressed me greatly and I hope that they will get succeed. But it is still to work hard and we don't want to force events and to press on them.
- Were you surprised by anyone's performance?
- We have found a lot of talents: Anel Kudaybergen (48 kg), Zhansaya Abdraimova (51 kg), Maria Gladkova (60 kg) and Dina Islambekova (81 kg). Besides them there were also other talented boxers.
- What are conclusions following the results of the tournament?
- New boxers are growing worthy and I am sure that these girls can be masters at the correct approach.
- Are you happy how the first women's national team is completed?
- In general I am happy. Now we are having a training camp to prepare for a new season. We received a reserve national team – girls of 1999 year of birth who have passed from youth team. The training is good and I hope that we will manage to keep this.
