At the event, the 39-year-old illustrious champion appeared in a white polka-dot shirt and pantsuit, the girls literally did not take their eyes off her. Kabaeva praised them for their perseverance, because everyone made a serious effort to compete.
“You are taking the first step into big sport, you are already participating in all-Russian competitions. Of course, the path to victory is not an easy path, so I want to wish everyone – do not stop there, overcome yourself and, if you have defeats, do not be discouraged! This is another step towards victory. And may the strongest win! she said.
Alina also mentioned the current situation: our athletes are not allowed to participate in international competitions. “We are currently in a difficult situation in sports. Our rhythmic gymnastics team was not allowed to the World Championships, they did not compete. But at the same time, we have a lot of competition inside the country. Regions do not stop working, clubs do not stop working. Therefore, I came to support them, to say that victory will be ours, we will definitely win!” Kabaeva assured.
