In the current chronological period, the sport of great achievement makes high demands on athletes. Andrey Efimov is a well-known coach in Russia. He prepares swimmers for competitions and is personally responsible for the results achieved.
Starting conditions
Swimming is not an easy sport. Swimming in a lake or pool is always a pleasure. Lovers of water treatments will agree with this statement. However, only trained people can participate in the competition. Andrey Mikhailovich Efimov is a well-known coach in the Russian Federation. At a certain stage in his development, he was actively involved in water sports. He played water polo and competed in freestyle speed swimming. He did not manage to achieve decent results, but in the coaching field the situation was not bad.
The future coach was born on December 2, 1960 in a working class family. At that time, the parents lived in the famous city of Grozny. My father worked at an oil refinery. Mother taught the basics of physical education at a local teacher training institute. The boy spent his free time among his peers on the street. The kids' favorite pastime was swimming in the pond, which was formed not far from the thermal power station. We also went to the Sunzha River, but only those who knew how to swim well swam in it. Andrei already swam excellently at preschool age.
Coaching career
After school, Andrei was drafted into the ranks of the armed forces. The sports company of the North Caucasian Military District was identified as the place of service. After returning to civilian life, Efimov was educated at the physical culture faculty of the local pedagogical institute. With a diploma "physical education teacher" he began teaching at the children's and youth school of the Olympic reserve. When riots broke out in Grozny in the early 90s, Efimov and his family moved to Volgodonsk. Here he was accepted as a coach in the city swimming section. By that time, his daughter Julia had grown up, who began to actively engage in swimming.
A serious turn in the coaching career of Efimov took place in 2006. By this time, his pupil and his own daughter had become a member of the junior national team of Russia. A year later, she was transferred to the team of adult swimmers. Andrey Mikhailovich has worked as an individual trainer for a talented swimmer for several years. Her successes were truly unique. Julia twice became world champion and once took third place at the London Olympics. Efimov laid out a special training schedule for her.
Recognition and privacy
The coach's initiative and creativity in the process of preparing for the competition was highly appreciated. For his contribution to the victory of Russian swimmers, Efimov was awarded the Order of Merit to the Fatherland.
