POSITION CHOSEN BY MOTHER
She chose to play as a setter on the advice of her mother. "My mum works as a volleyball coach. When I started to do the sport seriously, she said, 'There are a lot of spikers but not too many setters. The whole game relies on setting. It's where the creativity is and is the most interesting role in volleyball. So come on, daughter, work'." (mosregtoday.ru, 11 May 2021)
