Having declared completion of sporting career last year, the prize-winner of Olympic Games on Tea Donguzashvili's judo at once entered into a trainer's staff of a national team. About hard everyday life under the leadership of Ezio Gamby, perspectives of female judo and Donguzashvili's personal plans I told in interview to "Baltinfo" .

- You already got used to a new role?

- It awfully (laughs). To be the athlete — these are florets that the trainer does! I am very glad that I am now on other side of a tatami. Certainly, it was first heavy. Especially the first half a year while adapted for other style of trainings. Besides I had no experience in this operation. I completed sporting career and directly I got to the national team as the trainer. But everything is already normal, and I take great pleasure from operation.

- That is, you even to training didn't send, how Ekaterina Buravtseva?

- And at me, in fact, training takes place in a national team. Round me great trainers, the best people. And I at them study.

- After you began to work as the trainer, it didn't become a shame to you before the instructors?

- It is a shame? For what? !

- Perhaps understood, what unfairly them treated?

- I the kindest, fluffy, soft trainer (smile). I told to myself: it is impossible to shout. If you want that the person heard you, it is necessary to speak silently. Why to shout, offend athletes? This superfluous, it is possible to lose respect. I so can't.

- Authority among little girls already gained? Many of them found you still the operating sportswoman.

- Really, now in the national team there are girls who fought in the national team together with me. Therefore I told that addressed to me as well as earlier. Otherwise I will feel old (laughs). And young little girls address on a name middle name.

- Your life as a whole somehow changed? It was succeeded to feel the normal woman?

- What is to be the ordinary person, I didn't experience. Though the question of a marriage on the agenda costs at the first number (laughs). Know when I stopped to appear, I had such disgust for judo! From trainings, warm-ups. Half a year, probably, I couldn't look at all this. I came to a hall, it could be overcome slightly. But when athletes came and started warming up, thought: what happiness that I stand here, instead of there that I don't need to somersault together with them on a tatami. But, probably, time really treats. And now I with pleasure go on trainings, I do warm-ups.

- There are little girls who dare to overcome you on occupations?

- I, of course, don't train one and a half years at serious level. But there is still a gunpowder in powder flasks. So simply I won't give up.

- You were in the first day of the championship of Russia when sportswomen, including, and your weight category fought. What now a situation in category over 78 kg? You completed career, Elena Ivaschenko perished...

- If it is honest, heavy weight categories at girls are rather weak. I went in "Anniversary", hoping someone to make out in national championship. But while, frankly speaking, seen me doesn't please...

- But with desire at little girls shall be everything is all right. Or triumphal performance of men on the London Olympic Games didn't urge on them?

- The female national team now, figuratively speaking is scratched, clings hands, feet and teeth if only to appear at peak of the Olympic pedestal. Sportswomen direct all efforts for this purpose, but, of course, the result then won't come. Children needed four years that it turned out. Here and to us give four years. Year we already work.

- You personally didn't have a desire to return to sports?

- If I was at least, oh, damn, 32 years old, I still would think. But in 37 years — excuse. You speak, it was necessary to fight till 40 years? Till 40 years I plan to give birth to the child (smiles).

- But let's return to your working everyday life. For quite some time now Italian Ezio Gamba became the general manager of national teams of Russia. How there is an interaction with it?

- Ezio Gamba — principal and on female, and the man's national team. At us trainer's council every evening is carried out, we discuss all details, ideas, plans. He offers something and advises. We have the general command.

- Your views of female judo differ?

- No, by the way (laughs). Certainly, now level of female judo in Russia very low in comparison with the world. During trainings we place emphasis on physical preparation. Actually, for this reason also there was such dip of the national team in the World Cup in Brazil.

- And with technique, it turns out, at sportswomen everything is all right?

- With technique — yes. It is easy to technician to correct. Slightly tactics. With it everything is normal.

- Literally in some days in Petersburg start World Games of martial arts. It is already known who will appear as a part of Russian national team on judo?

- The command for this tournament is prepared by me. The line-up is known, it not a secret. Five people will appear: Natalia Pavlova (52 kg), Ilona Buryachenko (57 kg), Larissa Tcherepanov (63 kg), Ekaterina Denisenkova (70 kg) and Anaid Mkhitaryan (+78 kg). Still it is possible to declare one spare athlete. In this case we can add Irina Sordy (70 kg).

Irina Vasilyeva
