Inna Yuryevna Scheschkil , married Ivanova , sometimes as Irina Scheschkil known ( Russian Инна Юрьевна Шешкиль later Инна Юрьевна Иванова * 20th June 1971 in Makinsk , Oblast Aqmola of the former Soviet Union ) is a former Kazakh later Belarusian biathlete who today lives in Bashkortostan .

Inna Scheschkil started competitive sports at a young age, her father was a coach at a sports school in Makinsk. She attended a sports institute in Almaty , where her talent for biathlon was discovered. After less than three years, she made the leap into the junior national team of the USSR in 1991, before the collapse of the Soviet Union . Against great resistance, she was one of the few non-Russian athletes to be appointed to the team of the USSR and subsequently the Commonwealth of Independent States and took part in the 1992 Biathlon World Championships for the CIS team. In the team competition in Novosibirsk she won the silver medal behind the team from Germany together with Jelena Belowa , Anfissa Reszowa and Swetlana Petschorskaja . In 1994 she made her debut for Kazakhstan in the biathlon world cup . In Ruhpolding she finished 44th in the individual. Up to the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer , she had started in four World Cup races without winning any points. In the individual she reached 29th place. A surprise that was tantamount to a sensation was the Scheschkils sprint race. She missed the bronze medal by just 3.9 seconds behind Walentyna Zerbe , a fall shortly before the finish prevented a medal from being won. It should still be the greatest single success in the Kazakhstan's career. At the Holmenkollen in Oslo she won her first World Cup points as 24th in the individual and 21st in the sprint at the beginning of the 1994/95 World Cup season . Shortly afterwards, she came in fifth in the sprint in Osrblie again among the top ten. In the period that followed, the Kazakh woman repeatedly placed in the points, but then suspended the biathlon for a year because of the birth of her daughter. At the first summer biathlon world championships in Hochfilzen in 1996 , the Kazakh woman won the bronze medal in the sprint race. At the Biathlon World Championships in 1997 Scheschkil reached 21st place in the individual, 48th place in the sprint, twelfth place with the team and 6th place with the Kazakh relay, which was seen as a big surprise. In 1998 she started in Nagano for the second time at the Olympic Games. After a 54th place in the individual, she was 20th in the sprint and eleventh with the relay. First, she announced her retirement after the Nagano Olympics after differences with the newly appointed coaching staff in Kazakhstan. But she continued her career without a coach and won the overall standings of the 1998/99 European Cup , as well as three individual races, was second six times and third twice. She competed for Kazakhstan until the end of the season and then moved to the Belarusian association. The change followed through mediation by her friend Svetlana Paramygina together with her husband Valeri Ivanov , also a biathlete. The newly appointed coach of Belarus, Alexander Popov , brought promising athletes from the successor states of the Soviet Union to the Belarusian team. However, Scheschkil no longer achieved notable successes in the World Cup. At the end of her career, Scheschkil started at the Biathlon European Championships in Zakopane in 2000 . She was 13th in the sprint and 15th in the pursuit. With the relay, she just missed a medal as fourth at the end of her career. After there were again differences with the Belarusian team leadership under Nikolai Sakharov, she finally ended her career. Sheschkil was awarded the title of Honored Master of Sport . She has a daughter with her husband Valeri (1996), lives in seclusion and lived in the closed city of Meschgorje until 2010 .
