In trainer's staffs of the national teams of Georgia on free and Greco-Roman to types of wrestling there will be serious changes.
The president of national federation of wrestling of Georgia Luka Kurtanidze declared it today at the press conference devoted to totals of passed last week in Budapest of the World Cup. Trainers and wrestlers sat in a hall and after completion of a press conference at which spoke only to Kurtanidze, made short comments.
"Some consider as success the single bronze medal won by our national team on free-style wrestling in the World Cup. I can't agree with such judgement in any way. To show in an all-team competition the third place among 91 countries and to gain test points in all seven categories, maybe, and the truth quite good result, but only not for the national team of Georgia, at which in wrestling incomparably big ambitions.
I waited from the national team on free-style wrestling of at least 4 medals and is certainly dissatisfied with an adjusted total. And to Greco-Roman I have no claim. In 6 of 7 weight categories debutants had to appear and, I think that they got an extensive experience. As for the single skilled member of team, Revaz Lashkhi, he is disturbed by a problem of a weight and in the future it will surely replace weight category.
As you know, compositions on the World Cup were completed following the results of the Cup of Georgia. More anybody will have no ambition that in the national team it couldn't be replaced. I am sure that to Olympic Games of the 2016th year we will have the strongest compositions.
The president of federation of wrestling sounded one more interesting news – in the near future in training process of the national teams of Georgia the German experts who will be responsible for physical training will join.
"Germans in this case have no equal. Probably, in Russia in this regard also there are no problems, but they reach it, first of all, due to talent. And in Germany this process is erected in science. I communicate with this group within 12 years and is sure that cooperation with them will do good to our wrestling" – added Kurtanidze.
The Greco-Roman wrestling coach of the national team "Msoplio Sporti" Otar Tatishvili asked, the composition which it carried on FM was so optimum. Certainly, we wanted to hear from it an assessment of that directive of a manual of federation according to which, the request for FM shall be completed only by winners of the Cup of Georgia. Tatishvili told that the FM in Budapest was only the first stage of a preparatory cycle to Olympic Games.
And the instructor of the national team on free-style wrestling Revaz Mindorashvili for its part marked that some factors prevented its command to appear more successfully, including - and judicial errors.
