Kharlamov is a brief biography

St. Petersburg 2nd Krasnoarmeyskaya St. Twice became the Olympic champion, eight times - the world champion. In the photo: Valery Kharlamov in childhood, he was a very painful boy who suffered from dyspeps from birth. Frequent colds and sore throats led to the defect of the heart and rheumen. For about a month, his right hand and left leg were taken away from him.

Doctors were afraid that the boy would become disabled. The restoration of the teenager took place in sanatoriums and pioneer camps, after which he, without saying to anyone, decided to sign up for the CSKA hockey section. A year later, at the examination in the Morozov hospital, the doctors stated with surprise: Valery Kharlamov is completely healthy. The career of Kharamov was as wonderful as his recovery.

We will talk about her and his unfairly early death. Childhood, youth, family Valery was born in the winter of the year in the family of Spanish Basque origin Carmen Orve-Abat and the Russian tester Boris Kharlamov. Begonia was called by the mother of Valera by a summer girl, together with other children, was evacuated from Spain to the USSR during the civil war. They met at dancing, feelings flashed instantly.

They did not part anymore, although they could register relations only after the birth of their son: Begonia did not have the necessary documents for a long time. A year after a modest wedding in the family, one day with Valery, his sister Tatyana was born. Children were named after the legendary pilot Valery Chkalov and Pushkin heroine Tatyana Larina in honor of the legendary pilot.

Valery Kharlamov in childhood in the photo: with his sister, the first years of his life, a weak boy often had to spend in hospitals, where he was addicted to drawing. Valera could copy any picture, and being a schoolboy, he helped his sister carry out tasks on natural science and biology, making neat schemes in notebooks. Tanya, instead of her brother, did written tasks in the French language.

They were very friendly. In the book “Hockey - My Element”, Valery Kharlamov recalled childhood as follows: since the parents were busy, from Monday and until Saturday I was with my grandmother. Now it is the area of ​​the old highway, then these places were called a straw watchman. Anatoly Vladimirovich Tarasov, having learned where I first got on skates, exclaimed: “I know, we climbed there for strawberries!

We lived in a wooden house. I was on the street all the time, rode on snowy roads polished by carriageways. As soon as a hockey box appeared in our courtyard, I started playing with older guys. The boys willingly took little Valera to the game. Already at the age of 7, for the first time standing on skates, he rode much better than even many adult guys, was distinguished by maneuverability and speed.

From them, he learned that in CSKA they would be recorded from time to time to play hockey, and a children's school is being carried out annually there. But I had to forget about the hockey school for a while. Valery Kharlamov, with her parents and sister, in the second half of the X begonia with the children, moved to the Spanish city of Bilbao to see her parents - after the death of Stalin, the iron curtain opened up, and the woman got the opportunity to see her parents.

It turned out that children who had never left the Union had a wonderful spoken Spanish. Valery and Tatyana were shocked by the 7-room apartment of their grandparents-she was more than their entire communal apartment for several families. But Carmen was uneasy in his homeland: all the “returners” were followed, and in the end she could not stand it and insisted on returning to Moscow.

Upon returning to Valera, my mother’s problems with health problems have become aggravated with my mother and grandfather. In him, complications from the sore throat began, a heart disease was discovered. Doctors forbade him to even play with yard boys. But as soon as the boy passed rehabilitation after prolonged diseases, he secretly signed up from his parents in the section, while deceiving the second coach Boris Kulagin.

In the school years, Valery Kharlamov really wanted to train, but a little late: they recruited children a year younger - summer children. And he immediately dropped his year, especially since he was really the smallest against the background of his peers. Father found out about this the next day, and together they decided so far to keep it secret from their mother. Valery Kharlamov at the hockey school first steps that he was going to engage in hockey, Kharlamov had to tell his father.

Boris Sergeyevich, the amateur hockey player himself and the fan, supported his son. Together, they carefully hid this fact from their mother, until the doctors confirmed that the boy was absolutely recovered. The fact of deception was also revealed with age, but Valera was forgiven, because he played really well and already played for the team of a sports school.

Valery Kharlamov in his youth, the athlete remembered his first match with the audience very well. The enemy was already powerful at that time Igor Lapin. Kharlamov violated the rules, faced with him on the ice, and sat on the bench, worrying that he had failed his comrades. Anatoly Tarasov approached him with the words: “Well done, that he was not afraid.

Thanks for the courage!Never be afraid of anyone! Valery was proud and delighted - the legendary Tarasov himself praised him for the courage. The teenager for the rest of his life was remembered by the Council of the coach. To begin with, he sent him and Alexander Gusev to the Ural team "Zvezda" from the city of Chebarkul. The coach had his own intent: the three -time daily training and the participation of Kharlamov in all games should have strengthened his physical shape.

Fans always waited for them with trepidation: even during the exhibition match with Canada, the three showed an unusually coordinated game and brought the team victory. At the Olympic Games in Sapporo, Kharlamov proved himself as the best scorer, as a result - the winner’s gold medal. If in the Canadian part a hockey player was successful, then the Moscow series was not so smooth because of the unsportsmanlike act of the Canadian player Bobby Clark.

A chopping blow with a club on an ankle disabled Kharlamov, and the Soviet team, having lost the main player, was defeated. Losses turned around and all subsequent games. How Valery Kharlamov played “revenge” the national team of Canada Hockey player in the super series of the year. He abandoned only two goals, but each goal was recognized as a masterpiece that lead as an example and disassemble in theoretical classes now.

In the year, Kharlamov won the second Golden Olympic medal in Innsbruck. A tense match with the Czechs ended in his victorious puck, which brought the USSR national team victory. In the same year, the hockey player got into an accident on the Leningrad highway, after which he underwent several difficult operations in the Main Military Hospital of Moscow. Valery Valery was restored in the year for almost six months in the year, after which he went to training with the children's hockey team.

Kharlamov’s exit to the game with “Wings of the Soviets” was met by a prolonged applause of the audience. With the help of faithful partners, Valery scored a goal, but only two periods stayed on the ice. According to Kharlamov, he was so moved by the attitude of rivals, his own team and spectators to himself that he barely coped with the nerves so as not to burst into tears. Under him, the three Mikhailov-Kharlamov-Petrov scored her thousandth washer in the game with Spartak.

Valery continued the game in the national team, in the summer of the year he participated in exhibition games in Scandinavia, was in good shape and was preparing to go with the USSR national team to the Canada Cup. Tikhonov decided differently, and Kharlamov remained in Moscow. The personal life of Valery Kharlamov, according to his sister, Valery, from his youth, liked the girls: a cheerful, generous, half Spaniard, loved to sing to his own accompaniment on the guitar - the soul of any company.

But Kharlamov was not a womanizer. For five years, from the age of 21, he met with a translator with French Maria Bazhenova, but they never reached the wedding. Valery Kharlamov and Maria Bazhenova, when he had already become a famous hockey player, there was no end to the girls in love with him. In some ways, they got his home phone number, called, tried to set a date.

Sometimes, as the sister recalled, Valery could invite the girl to take a walk, but instead Tatyana herself went on a date, comforting the unlucky failed ravings of the hockey player. In September of the same year, the girl gave birth to a son of Alexander from him. In the year, the couple officially registered marriage. Soon, the daughter, which Valery called in the Spanish Mad - Begonita was also born.

Valery Kharlamov and his wife and children first lived in a mother -in -law apartment on aircraft viewing street, then Kharlamov received the keys to a three -room apartment on Mira Avenue. The death after a tense conversation with coach Viktor Tikhonov, who decided not to take Kharlamov that the hockey player was in a depressed state and for the first time in his life allowed his wife to drive his “Volga” when they returned under the morning of August 27 with a summer house under the wedge.

Photos from the scene of the accident from injuries incompatible with life, the Volga passengers died on the spot. They say that the driver of Zila, who hit Kharlamov’s car, learning who died, almost got rid of grief and never again got behind the wheel.
