At 16 years of age Alisa was unfortunate to
loose her leg at an early age so her decision was to retire from sport.
Her life was changed forever after a
catastrophic accident happened. We may call it an accident, but her dreams of
competing in the Olympics were shuttered from the moment of the injury.
Poor girl is left with destroyed dreams and a
injured heart. What next for her? But further research suggests that the
recovery process is going well the help of doctors and physiotherapist has been
a success for her development. The doctors have said “it doesn’t necessarily
mean that she will be back but she will be more healthier than ever, time can
only tell".
The question is simple are we able to see her
compete again? Most properly not but the effort is there from her self
and others pushing her to get back in shape. The rehabilitation stage is as far
as everyone notices going particularly well that’s my judgment and everyone.
Almost everyone wants to see her compete again.
Lets go back in time to her previous experience
and the tournaments she has completed successfully to get to the Olympics. A
great heroic figure to the sporting world.
Alisa came second in the 2008 world Olympics
games. Before this Alisha had a tough time adjusting to a new environment, as
it was her first time moving to the UK before her successful regime.
Arriving in England and coming from Spain a
place were everyone agrees the weather doesn’t seem to change is a massive
jump. The influence of the weather most obvious the British weather made her
home sick for 2 weeks and she couldn’t train at the time because of this
illness. Luckily she was aloud to migrate back home to see her family and feel
back to normal
Alisa did struggle with injuries and was
feeling really depressed. Advice came from the media that she needed help and a
mentor was the best possible answer. She disagreed with this sort of action but
however decided to use her manager as a mentor to help her through her personal
life. Asked who she trusted the most the respond was “I love my manager I think
his a father figure to me I will only trust him with many of my problems as Im
not a fan of traveling back home to see my mum”
Her manager and her had got on really well and
worked efficiently in sorting her personal life problems. But her manager was
really concerned about her well being and the fact that she wasn’t in the
mental or physical condition to compete.
This is mainly my ideas and her Coach Charles
Cristian -Alisa Manager had this to say “Ohh Alisa is a great and enthusiastic
Athlete how she generates power in her legs her determination is incredible i
have to say she’s my motivator, the word give up does not exist to her i think
she will be back and I’m waiting that’s all I’m doing.
