The sisters from Shakhtinsk Ayaulym and Kamilla Ospanov brought two gold medals of the Asian championship to the piggy bank of the Kazakh national team. The International Junior Championship from 18 countries was held in Amman (Jordan). More than 400 athletes from 15 to 17 years old participated in it.Ayaulym is 13 years old, she won a gold medal in the weight category up to 63 kg.,and Camila is 16, she became the first in the weight class up to 70 kg.The girls have been preparing for the championship for a long time and carefully. According to their father and coach Zhenis Ospanov, they came to the competition at the peak of their form.– The rivals were very strong, the fights were intense. Athletes from India, Uzbekistan and Ukraine were the strongest. But we knew that this would happen, we knew who Camilla and Ayaulym would fight. We can say that we were confident of victory," says Zhenis Ospanov.Both girls became interested in boxing themselves, looking at their father and famous Kazakhstani athletes. Ayaulym was most impressed by Firuza Sharipova, whose fight the girl saw on TV in 2017.– It was a fight at Expo-2017. Then Ayaulym said: "I want the same thing." And since then, at the age of 7, she has been training. Camilla, the eldest, joined boxing a little later when she was 12 years old. In general, of course, there are difficulties in coaching daughters. Usually, if the coach swears, the kids don't pay much attention to it. And then, because I'm a dad, they get offended. But we have a rule: I'm the dad at home, and the coach in class. Of course, there are advantages in this too: my daughters are always under supervision, always near," Zhenis Ospanov shared.Now the girls need rest and recovery after intense competitions. Then they will start preparing for the Asian Games in Bahrain and the World Cup.The performance at the Asian Championship was a success for the Kazakh national team as a whole.
