The Deriugina School, also known as the Deriugins' School is a rhythmic gymnastics club in Kiev, Ukraine. It is run by the mother and daughter team of Albina Deriugina, who is the head coach, and Irina Deriugina, who acts as the assistant coach. Every year since 1992 the club plays host to the biggest rhythmic gymnastics competition in Ukraine, ''The Deriugina Cup'' (Кубок Дерюгіної). The main training centre of the club is the October Palace.〔 ==History == In the 1970s Deriugina gymnasts comprised the majority of the Soviet team with the Deriugina gymnasts becoming Soviet, European and World champions. During this era the most notable individual gymnast was, Irina Deriugina — the 1977 and 1979 World champion. The school was very strong in the groups discipline during this period with European and World titles for the group, consisting of Viktoria Serykh, Olga Plokhova, Ludmila Yevtushenko, Olga Shchegoleva, Zhanna Vasyura and Irina Deriugina. Ten years after the school's initial success, it had a few more champions to give. Aleksandra Timoshenko become the Bronze medal winner at the 1988 Olympics and the Champion at 1992 Olympics. She became the role model for the ''über-waif'' rhythmic gymnast look. Along with Timoshenko, the school produced Oksana Skaldina who went on to claim the bronze medal at the 1992 Summer Olympics, with Timoshenko taking the gold. Throughout the 1990s the Deriugina School produced numerous champions and gymnasts of interest. Gymnasts such as Ekaterina Serebrianskaya and Elena Vitrichenko dominated the mid-90s. The school had a big emergence of talent in the late 90s and early 00s led by the daughter of Viktoria Serykh, Anna Bessonova. During the late 2013/early 2014 Euromaidan-protest in Kiev, the school changed training halls several times and their main training centre October Palace became occupied by protesters.〔(Anna RIZATDINOVA on the annexation of Crimea, challenges for the country and role of sport ), ''Den'' (24 June 2014)〕 According to Deriugins School pupil Ganna Rizatdinova after Euromaidan they discovered that school equipment "like a TV set and a kettle, balls and clubs" had disappeared; "it was a strange kind of robbery. We don’t know who did it.”〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Deriugins School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
