female head coachlocomotive » Elena Fomina told how the attitude towards women’s football has changed in recent years.
On June 18, CSKA Women and Lokomotiv will play the Russian Supercup.
– All 1800 Super Bowl tickets have been sold in 5 days, will broadcast the game – there is an opportunity to raise important issues for women’s football. What is missing?
– I would pay attention to women’s youth football. We have to wait for our staff, pay attention to the development of our players, we need quality professional coaches so that we have players of the same level as England. We want our players to compete in Europe. In my opinion, a lot is being done for this now: the level of the championship is rising, women’s teams are developing in the structures of men’s clubs – Rostov, Zenit, Krasnodar, the same CSKA declare themselves. I wish there was more of this.
– About 10-15 years ago, many players came to women’s football from related sports – for example, athletics. Now how?
– Now there are hardly any players from another sport. It was in our time when our generation was playing. Now all the girls do [футболом] in childhood, let someone in the youth sports school with boys (because at that time there was no academy), but still. The units came from other species. If there is such a thing, then it was in the early stages – 11-12 years old. If we pay more attention to the preparation of girls, we will take a big step forward in development. This will give us the opportunity to compete and lead in world and European championships.
– From time to time there are stereotypical opinions about women in football. How is this situation evolving?
– Of course, the difference is big with what it was 10 years ago. Since they were talking about women’s football then, especially men’s… Apparently, they were zealous for such a profession. A footballer was already nonsense.
From now on, women’s football is supported. Despite our mentality, it was accepted, everyone helps each other. We are next to the men’s team, we are open to each other, we communicate. It seems to me that this abyss no longer exists. Now that’s all for. Everyone cares about women’s football, they care about it, care about it, just like we care about men’s football. I hope, moreover – more, – said Fomina “”.
