Career
Varakina began competing at the international level in her teens, participating in cadet and junior tournaments across Europe. She trains at the National Wrestling Centre in Minsk and represents Belarus in the 57 kg weight category. In April 2025, Varakina earned the bronze medal at the European Wrestling Championships held in Bratislava. Her performance contributed to Belarus's strong showing at the event, where the country secured one gold and two bronze medals in women’s freestyle wrestling. The same championships were notable for a broader success of Eastern European wrestlers, including the Belarusian team and their rivals from Russia, who won three gold and three bronze medals across various women's categories. Prior to her senior success, Varakina had achieved top-five finishes at U17 and U20 European tournaments. She continues to be seen as one of Belarus’s top prospects in women’s wrestling.References
