Personal Statement
I have been swimming since 7 years. My parents also athletes and I always wanted to be like them. In the 10 years I have visited on my first competition and realized that this is my life. At age 14, I entered the Dnepropetrovsk College of Physical Culture. This is a special school designed just for athletes. It includes 4-year high school and 2-year college. Formally, graduates receive an associate coach diploma, but the main goal of the school - to enable prospective athletes to train. Unfortunately, there are very few resources and conditions for swimmer in my country and special school often the only opportunity for the professional growth of the athlete.
I am currently a student in my first year in the Sports School. From 2011 to 2014 I was a candidate for the national team of Ukraine. I am currently a candidate for master of sports, and I want to continue to improve my athletic skills.
As a university sport in Ukraine is absent I would like to feel part of a team. One of my features is the fact that for the team I swim faster than for themselves.
