The coach of the Latvian national team Brisis resigned after Rastorguev’s words about beating
The biathlon national team, Ilmars Brisis, resigned. It is reported by Sportacentrs with reference to the Latvian Olympic Committee.
The specialist did this right during the World Cup among juniors held in Sweden. The coach left the competition. “His duties will go to the head of the delegation to Carlis Vanagsu and two other coaches present,” the committee said.
Earlier, the biathlonist of the Latvian national team Andrei Rastorguev accused Brisis of beating during the 2025 World Cup. According to the athlete, the incident occurred on February 20 after he turned to the coach to discuss skiing last year. Brisis rejected the accusations. According to the coach, he had to defend his family from the biathlonist, including one and a half year old son.
