Vasylyna Litvin

I was born on 30 March 2013 in Sumy, Ukraine, and have been living in Switzerland since March 2022. I currently attend the sixth grade of primary school in Sargans.
Swimming is an important part of my life. I train for around 12 hours in the pool and three hours on land every week. My main disciplines are butterfly and individual medley. Since arriving in Switzerland, I have been training with the YPS-Club Swim Team in Gamprin. From the very beginning, I have had the opportunity to take part in club life together with my brother Matvii, including training sessions, competitions, training camps and social activities.
My greatest sporting achievement so far was winning a silver medal at the 2025 Northwestern Swiss Championships. Since September 2025, I have also been part of the Eastern Switzerland Regional Squad (ROS) and hold a Swiss Olympic Regional Talent Card.

I am curious and interested in many different things. Whenever I discover something new, I want to understand it and give it a try. I find it easy to meet new people and make connections. In swimming, I also value exchanging ideas and experiences with my coach and my teammates.
I train conscientiously and always want to keep improving. My goal is to reach the highest possible level in swimming. At the same time, school is important to me. I want to continue developing academically and build a good foundation for my future.

"I want to reach the highest possible level in swimming and see how far I can go. At the same time, I would like to become a designer in the future because I enjoy being creative and bringing my own ideas to life. I love combining colours, shapes and styles to create something unique. Being a designer would allow me to express my personality and create things that other people enjoy. That is why my dream is to work in this field one day."
