The 13-year-old, three-time world champion in bodybuilding and fitness, Mariana Kovalevskaya was discussed at the Russian Championships in Gelendzhik. In addition to her, several other children suffered from the judgment - the parents wrote a collective complaint to the FBI presidency and admitted that they had begun to think about changing their sports citizenship.
The organizers opened a 5x9 m stage instead of the 10x10 m required by the regulations. During Mariana's performance, her accessories - a hat and a fabric whip - flew off the carpet. The girl put it down so as not to trip. She showed up - everything was great. But 10 minutes after the speech, the jury showed her a red card - they say that additional objects in the room are prohibited. Although the day before the competition everything was agreed.
In the end, it was another girl who won the gold, not Mariana. According to her father, at the World Cup in Serbia the referees didn't even raise an eyebrow at that exact prop reset. Parents of other children are also shocked: the school students are losing motivation and are already looking to change their sports citizenship. They demand to cancel the accepted results with violations, return the legal protocols and check the professional suitability of the organizing committee.
