Belarus marks Mother’s Day on 14 October. The National Olympic Committee of the Republic of Belarus wishes Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers and, of course, to the wonderful athletes who have already become mothers.

Children of the famous Belarusian athletes took part in various quests, helped themselves to sweet treats, told why their mother is the best and sang a beautiful song in honor of the holiday. Our famous athlete moms shared their stories about how to balance family and professional sport, why it is important to support fathers, and how to get back to training after a maternity leave.
