The position of head coach of the Russian biathlon team remains vacant after Valery Polkhovsky left him in May 2021. Earlier it became known that Pavel Rostovtsev could be appointed to this position.
– The figure of the head coach is necessary for the national team! The head coach is the link between the main team and the junior team. Although now the question arises whether we need a youth team. When I was in Ryazan and heard this, I was shocked! It comes to the point that the question arises – do we need a national team in the absence of international competitions?
But look how the level of biathlon is rising in our country! The young guys start with the leaders, trying to beat them. They learn in every way. There are many plowmen who are the future of our team.
We need a head coach. He will connect the coaching staff, solve many internal problems, problems in the methodological part.
Today we have huge shooting training problems. I can say with certainty that Rostovtsev will greatly help coaches in this regard, especially young people, from a methodological point of view. This will help advance athletes in the shooting unit. If Pavel Alexandrovitch comes, it will be great! Kasperovich told .
