Biography

Nadezhda Andreyeva-Patrikeyeva, was a multiple Soviet champion and competed at the 1982 World Championships. During her five World Cup seasons she came in second twice, both in slalom. In the autumn of 1975, she became part of the senior team and was being considered for the 1976 Winter Olympics. However, due to her youth (she was only 17-years-old) and after sustaining a broken pelvis during training, she was not nominated. After a fifth place in the World Cup race in Maribor, Slovenia, she was a last minute entry for the 1980 Winter Olympics. Even though she had been USSR champion earlier in the downhill, her specialty was the slalom. In Lake Placid, after the first run of the slalom she was a surprise third and managed to finish sixth. A few days after the Olympics she placed second at a US World Cup race.

A year before the 1984 Sarajevo Olympics Andreyeva-Patrikeyeva gave birth to a son and she was at less than her best. After the Olympics, she won the Soviet championships in slalom and giant slalom. To avoid confrontation she gave up her active career soon after, because her husband Vladimir Andreyev started coaching the team. Since 2001, she has been head of a municipal youth sports school in the Shokolovo skiing area near Moskva.
