Soccer coach. My specialisation is Pro Defender Training. Built for Real Matches. I’m a former professional footballer (15 years) and a defense-focused coach with 5 years coaching U10–U16. I don’t run random drills. I build defenders who control space, win duels, and make the right decision before the opponent even turns. What makes my coaching different Defense specialization: 1v1, positioning, timing, pressing triggers, cover/shadow, line management Decision speed: scanning, body shape, first touch under pressure, 1–2 touch solutions Match realism: every exercise has a game problem and a clear reason Structure: goal → plan → measurable checkpoints, not “just train harder” What we work on (choose your priority) Winning 1v1 without fouls: angle, distance, tackle timing, shoulder control Positioning that saves legs: where to stand, when to step, when to delay Playing out from the back: first touch, passing lanes, pressure exits Pressing & recovery: triggers, sprint patterns, tracking runners Confidence under pressure: calm decisions, not panic clears How a session runs Quick assessment and objective Targeted drills with immediate corrections Game-speed reps + situational play Short action plan for the week Languages English / Ukrainian / Russian If you want training that makes you harder to beat next match—not just tired—book a session.Let's elevate your game!

"The lesson with Gina started on time and really focused on Baen’s goals, covering some useful skills he wanted to work on. She was considerate in bringing drinks so he could stay hydrated when needed. Honestly, I’d say it was quite productive and a good foundation for future lessons. If you're into soccer lessons that stay consistent, Gina's a solid choice to try out.
