Paralympic athlete

Hello! My name is Matvey! I want to tell you about the Russian Paralympic athlete Andrey Lebedinsky! Andrey was born in Khabarovsk in 1963. From an early age, Andrey began to be interested in shooting, because his father was a hunter and took Andrey with him on hunting. At the age of 14, he began to engage in bullet shooting. A little later, at the age of 15, Andrey became a candidate and at 17 a master of sports. In 1981 Andrey won the USSR championship in bullet shooting. In 1984, he was injured. The doctors could not save the leg. As a result of which Andrey lost his leg. Andrey underwent treatment and rehabilitation for a year. To pay for the treatment, Andrey sold all his equipment. After Andrey finished rehabilitation, he immediately returned to his sport. In 1996 Andrey won three medals. 2 gold and 1 bronze. In 1999, Andrey suffered an injury to his right eye and almost lost his sight. After the injury, he spent days learning how to aim with his left eye. At the Sydney Olympi
