Minsk, 15 Mar - Sputnik.The ex-captain of the Male national team of Belarus on tennis Vladimir Volchkov again headed the team, said Sputnik in the press service of the Belarusian Tennis Federation (BTF).

In March, BTF again invited him to lead the team. Among the candidates were also Maxim Mirny, Alexander Shvets, Denis Smolekov.

This week a meeting of the BTF Board was held. The federation was informed that peaceful, Swie and Smolekov refused to offer for good reasons. Volchkov agreed to head again, and members of the Bureau unanimously voted for him.

"The main tasks at the moment (Vladimir Volchkov) considers building business, professional relationships between players and ROO" BTF ". A special place in working with the team should take the patriotic upbringing of players. Also important is the preparation of the reserve team, providing a long bench," - Talked to BTF.

Sergey Tetherin Chairman, Sergey Tetherin, noted that the Commands are "huge responsibility." He noticed that the next match the team would spend only in September. During this time, the captain must build a new system of work and interaction in the team.

"All actions should be carried out with a mandatory understanding of the work" on a positive result ", because the matches are waiting for us not easy. I want to wish you good luck on the Captain position," said TEterin.

The women's team has a new captain

Together with the Volchkov, the post of captain of the female team in February left Eduard Dubrov. His place today took Tatiana Puchk, \u200b\u200bwho headed the team from 2012 to 2015, when Belarusians came out in the 2 world group.

"We congratulate the new captain with the appointment, and I want to sincerely wish success in the post. The practice of returning captains for posts in the Federation Cup and in the Davis Cup has examples and in the world and in Belarusian tennis. I hope that our women's team with the return of Tatiana Nikolaevna It will become a single whole, a cohesive team aimed at achieving the main one - the highest sports results! " - noted TEMERIN.

April 21-22, Belarus will hold a match of the playoffs of the world group of the Federation Cup against Slovakia. The meeting will be held on the "Chiryovka-arena".

The second time in the history of the Davis Cup on the court, the teams of Russia and Belarus came together. And Vladimir Volchkov took part in both matches. In Minsk, he brought the owners a decisive point, and Moscow had already arrived in the rank of Captain. In an interview with a portal correspondent website Volchkov spoke about what happened in that memorable for the hosts of the court and guests of the match, and also shared an opinion on reforms in the favorite sport.

- Vladimir, how would you characterize the current state of affairs in Belarusian tennis?
- The condition is quite good and with interesting prospects. Of course, in the near future, the main hopes we associate with the girls who are now playing at a much higher level than guys. Therefore, our main task today is to pull up the male team. Naturally, in order to make their way into the global group, you need to prepare helpers Ilya Ivashko and Hiru Gerasimov. Because last year, because of the injury of both, we missed a unique opportunity to break into the elite of the Davis Cup. The guys train abroad: Ilya and Egor - in Spain, Max Mirny - at the Academy of Bulletieri. Only Andrei Vasilevsky is based at home. And firmly stand on the legs. And we are preparing the reserve for men and for the women's national team. The Academy of Tennis employs good sparrings and coaches on the OFP. We already have four or five girls who are ready to go to individual training and continue the success of Alexandra Sosnovich, Arina Solenko and the faith of Lard.

Does the financial state help in the preparation of the reserve or the main cargo to go on the shoulders of the players themselves or their parents?
- Of course it helps. We have scholarships for coaches working with the best juniors. For this, the Tennis Support Fund has been created. There are budget financing of the treasures of the most promising athletes for competitions. In any case, over the past four years, we have not lost a single player due to the impossibility of participating in tournaments. It is important that parents do not pay a penny from their pocket, and at the same time the coach does not depend on the financial condition of the ward. That is, for the development of tennis, we have a lot.

- What is the situation with the courts?
- indoor sites are not enough, and at the moment the National Tennis Federation is actively engaged in the expansion of the material and technical base. A project has been developed, as the tennis center should look like in the regions. The first such with four covered courts according to the plan should be built in Grodno. And in the future and in all areas, in order to ensure a constant influx of young talents in Minsk. Because while, speaking of the national team of Belarus, there is a team of the capital.

What can be explained by the fact that girls began to play after the success of the Belarusian male tennis, but the tennis players had a decline in the results?
- shift generations. When the Union collapsed, Natasha Zverev, Olya Barabanchikov and Tanya Buchek played quite well. Including in the World Cup of the Federation. Then there was very high competition. While the men's team played in the Europe / Africa zone. And then thanks to the successes of Peace and Tetherin, he received an incentive for the development and male tennis: from 1994 to 2004, we were able to reach the semi-final of the World Cup "Davis Cup". This is a permanent process, not a single flash. Then there was a strong generation of players. Now for girls, ideal conditions have been created: the guys are sparred at each second training, the courts are provided at any time. In short, only play. Therefore, Vera Lapko seventeen won the Junior Australian Open and headed the ITF rating for several weeks. It was obvious that Arina Solenko had a very good potential, but it was decided that she would immediately go to professionals. And she started successfully there. The main thing is to see the potential of the player and create conditions for the athlete to implement it. Then the results will come. Now we try to go as much expensive with the guys. But here it is all longer, competition is higher. We have no sparring for the guys: they are very difficult to find. However, we believe in good luck.

Once you played with Max peaceful in one team, and now you are the captain of the national team. Is it somehow reflected on your relationship with him?
- Only in good sense. Because we have deep mutual respect: Max understands what I want from him, like a captain, and the fact that I am a responsible person. In turn, I am very well aware of what you have to overcome him. We think together, who is more comfortable to play one or another match. That is, our relationship slightly go beyond the framework of the "player - captain", which makes us easier both life and helps to gain experience with each fight. In short, everything is fine.

- Peaceful older than you, but continues to play. Do you have a light envy?
- This is a cool question. With my current knowledge, maybe at one time I would care about your own desires and tried to continue playing in a pair. But at that moment I considered myself as an exclusively "single room" and realized that I had neither physical nor emotional forces to beat for returning to the top 100. And only it would make sense to continue career. Being even at the level of a hundred fifty, believe me, not interesting. And now I already like the coaching path.

- I can not get around the legendary match between our national teams in Minsk. Then your appearance on the court in the third game day has become a complete surprise for Russians. Some even suspected you in simulation.
- Honestly, I did not simulate. I did not even have grown the idea that I could play in the decisive match. I spent the whole day in a sports dispensary, where the specialists were "koldovy" above my foot. And a miracle happened: they could restore me. Probably because they understood: I don't go to the court, there would be no chance of defeating our team. And they did everything possible to recover.

- What is your attitude to the reform of the Davis Cup? Why, in your opinion, ITF managed to drag the decision against which almost all the leading national tennis federations and most players, including among the most legendary?
- I think the answer is very simple: we live in the era of the commercialization of everything. For example, such a large-scale sports event as the World Cup, to become a giant "money maker." Any tournament "Grand Slam" is not only the enormous opportunity to succeed for players, but also for sponsors, and national federations. It is just the realities of the modern world. Serious units twisted and decided to make a great show from the Davis Cup. My attitude to this can be defined as "fifty-fifty." Of course, it is difficult to accept the lack of home matches. Yes, the former format will be saved for lower zones. But believe me when the top 100 level players appear in the country, people want to come to the matches of the world group. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to go there, where the struggle for a trophy with the participation of his team will be held.

- Is it possible to return to the current format?
- I think no. I do not know any such precedent.

- And if the reform fails? Suddenly leading tennis players will not want to take part in such competitions? Especially since it was unambiguously "for" only three: Novak Jokovic, Rafael Nadal and Andy Mare.
"I think that will" cheer the gear "of this event will be entitled to the money. Or something else. Because ITF wants to be a successful federation and withstand acute competition and the brainchild of Roger Federer Laver Cup, and with ATP, which plans to create a similar tournament. Let's see what will come out of all.

- One of my colleague asked the captains of several prefabs such a question: maybe the team will be deliberately abandoning the elite to have the opportunity to look at the game of pets in home matches?
- I can not do how to do it, because any athlete, and even more so top level, extremely ambitious. And it will not allow him to go to the court and do not play victory.

- Why did such a reform touched the "Federation Cup"? At least for now.
- I do not want to offend the girls, but still the entertainment of male tennis to this pore is on a different level. Sorry for the parallel, but I do not know how much time should pass to the women's football championship at least approached popularity to the male championship of the planet.

- Then, it would seem, on the contrary, ITF would have to bring elements of the show in the "Federation Cup", in order to increase the most entertainment.
- Honestly, I can not answer this question.

- What is your assessment of the incident that occurred in the finals of the female single discharge US Open this year?
- I believe that in this case the judge entered according to the rules. What was confirmed by the International Tennis Federation, speaking with a similar tracting situation. While the interpretation of the WTA was exactly the opposite. I "cut" the ear that Serena said as if she was not suggested. Although everything was obvious: she immediately ran to the grid. Further, from the side of Serena, there was an emotional reaction. Being under colossal pressure - Judging the match with the participation of American women in the USA, - The arbitrator was professional. It was nice to watch him: he did not flinch and did not cut the "back". It's great that there are "SHARES" that can keep a blow and stay at a high level of professionalism.

- Can the problem of such emotional explosions solve "Major" with tournaments conducted under the auspices of ATP and WTA: Allow the coach once for the set to go to the court to the ward?
- It is unlikely (laughs). You see, the masters can change the play situation much more often than once to the set. After all, not just so Patrick Muratoglu called on Serena to move forward. And it happened not at the beginning of the set, but when it became obvious that the match begins to escape from the hands of Serena. This situation was difficult to foresee. Probably "coaching" after each set can help the player, but only partially. I do not know how justified it, because, being a conservative, I think that everything should be reasonable.

- Then you rate the conservative eye options for reforming the game itself: proposals to spend all the matches of three networks and with a tie break in the decisive party, including "Major".
- Here I just do not consider myself a conservative. Since it is difficult to stop the TV four and a half hours to watch one match. It is not necessary to observe the game at all so long in order to feel all the beauty of tennis. This understands everything: from organizers to television managers. And I think tennis will move towards optimization. Even with a reduction in the duration of the matches, he will not lose in entertainment. On the contrary, they will be seduced to take some, let's say neatly, vitamins that make an athlete of the Iron Man. We see tournaments where matches are held from three sets, and they are glad to look at them. And the stands are clogged. True, I do not think that it is touched by the Tournaments "Big Slam". Although here, in my opinion, the organizers will work on a reduction in matches duration.

- Then what do you explain the recent proposal of Roger Federer to return the five-way format in the "Masters" finals? Although it would seem that he would be more profitable to play from three parties to him at the thirty-seven years.
"My vision of the situation is Takovo: the first five, maybe a dozen rating purposefully preparing themselves to five-five matches. What is significantly different from preparation for meetings from three parties. In the first case, the emphasis is on endurance, in the second - on the development of power and high-speed qualities. It is just such a targeted preparation for certain tournaments I explain the sports for Federer and Nadal.

- Can anyone catch feder in the number of championship titles of the Grey Helmet tournaments?
- It is difficult, but theoretically everything is possible. It would seem that Novak should become a leader, but "falls off" for two years, and Roger breaks forward. But now Djokovich is already not far from Nadal, who pursues Federer. The situation is interesting.

Olga Volchkova, spouse:
For your spouse, I am preparing an apple strudel. This is his favorite dish, as far as I know.

Vladimir Volchkov, tennis player:
There are still a couple of dishes that summer remind me. Olga prepared zucchini under garlic sauce. It seems simple, but I really like it. She does it very well.

On the table - only appetizing dishes. And at the table - pleasant talk about everyday life and warm memories of the wedding day.

Vladimir Volchkov, tennis player:
It so happened that we celebrated our wedding in a cafe of a good friend. Olga very actively participated in the decoration hall.

Olga Volchkova, spouse:
All guests were delighted. Some even shocked how sincere and kindly a good event passed.

The sweet time of the honeymoon Volchkov decided to spend under the rays of the warm sun, reports the correspondent of the television company. In the hot sea and white sands of Turkey. But it was not there.

Vladimir Volchkov, tennis player:
At one of the excursions, we went to Pamukkale, in the hope that there was a rest under the sun. Especially since there is such a place like a canopatra pool. Walked easier, in shorts and shirts. We arrived there, and there was a real storm. We were blown from the mountain. Well, that bought some windproof raincoats. And such interesting photos turned out: crazy wind, rain, and we are in shorts and in shale.

Mandatory conditions for a large Sunday breakfast of Volchkov - this is a meeting with parents. Father and Vladimir's mother are not tired to admire the beauty, mind and culinary talent of daughter-in-law.

Lyudmila Volchkova, Mother Vladimir:
There are such dishes that she prepares very well. Sometimes I even shy to ask her about them. I am proud of it.

Father, Nikolai Vladimirovich, the first tennis school of Vladimir remembers the large table. For those distant years when the future successful athlete was only six years old, and he did the first feed on the court.

Nikolay Volchkov, Father Vladimir:
At first he progressed the most. And then competed, struggle. It was necessary to defend their positions.

And Vladimir retained. Even abandoned the career of the swimmer.

Vladimir Volchkov, tennis player:
Tried a little swimming. Let's go from school for swimming. The coach saw something and offered to do. But I replied that I was more interesting for tennis. There are more fun, many guys.
And further. Low bow to my first coach, Konnik Vyacheslav Efimovich. Because he was just an enthusiast of his business. For us, he was a benchmark and an example. Love for tennis is Vyacheslav Efimovich Vyacheslav.

Love for tennis was mutual. Among numerous awards and a plate for second place at the President of Uzbekistan, and the Crystal Vase of the Winner of the ATP Tournament in San Jose.

Without the main sense of his work, a responsible game with the Russian Mikhail South at the Davis Cup could have a completely different finale.

Vladimir Volchkov, tennis player:
The leg injury was. I already thought how to play. And then everything happened that on Sunday morning it became clear that I would probably need to play. It was very big responsibility, because they played at home, and wanted to win. So many people came. The excitement simply broke.

But the victory was behind the Vladimir and the entire Belarusian team, reports the correspondent of the television company. The memory of this momentary day stores the velvet box.

These frames of the family album are only part of the bright pages of the life of Vladimir Volchkov.

We are confident that every day it will be filled with rich pictures, children's laughter, amazing events and new achievements.
