"In my understanding, the fate of the woman is to give birth." The secretary general of the football federation has talked so much about athletes that he has had to apologize

There is unrest in Belarussian football. Not because of the world cup or the stiff cup in the national championship. Just the newly appointed general secretary of the profile federation spoke of women's football: "I believe that football is not a feminine sport after all.In my understanding.The fate of the woman is d & # 39; 39, give birth. " The ribbons began to boil. In the house of football have stretched. As a result, the official statement was published on the website of the AFFF

The general secretary of the Association "Belarusian Football Federation" is Yury Vasilievich Vergeichik. The once lanky striker of the Belarusian national team (7 games, 1 goal), Dynamo-93, the Belgian Molenbek, the German Alain and Soligorsk Shakhtar. In the city of miners Vergeichik began to train (the championship from 2005 to the era Borisov), and after that preside. In the spring of this year, he became the secretary general of the National Football Federation

It was not so long ago, the official was talking about transfer of "Sport-frame":

– I believe that football is not feminine sport In my understanding. The goal of a woman is to give birth. And not to work and make fun of the body. All the same, sport and football are not only positive emotions, it is also a part of health and time. Therefore, I would like for our beloved women, that we create the ideal conditions for life. I badociate them with music and dance.

More or less everyone was excited, that the news touched, even on a tangent. Vergeichik and has already spoken against women's football.

– Here I am categorical. The fact is that the purpose of women is to give birth to children, – his quote for 2016. – And if a woman has a professional career. Here, understand what kind of sport you do – so the body structure is formed. Therefore, I would not want our women to be, I'm sorry, with twisted legs, bruises, scars and pinched eyes. I would like them to be beautiful, curly, with a knowledge of languages, they could dance. And all this has been pbaded on to our children. The more they will give birth to such beautiful children as I imagine, the better it will be for our society.

In general, I had to excuse myself. Today on the website of the football federation appeared the following statement:

– First of all I want to emphasize that I respect the sport of women in general and football in particular. Everyone has the right to choose what to do in life, regardless of the personal opinions of others, including the general secretary of the football federation.

I am very familiar with the ABFF Charter, the objectives of the organization and the development of women. football is one of the priority activities of the Association. This kind of sport, as before, will be followed with attention: amateur competitions to the performances of the national team.

I am disappointed that my words provoked a negative reaction in society and were perceived in the context of women's football in Belarus. I would like to apologize to everyone who has hurt or offended my words.
