The question of the powers of the coaches of the Russian biathlon team will not be considered in the coaches council; specialists will only receive grades for their work during the season, the president of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) told . Viktor Maygurov .
Yuri Kaminsky and Sergei Bashkirov work in the men’s team, while the women’s team is led by Artem Istomin and Mikhail Shashilov. The meeting of the RBU coaching council will take place on Thursday in Tyumen.
— The work of the coaches will be discussed at the council. Will you make personnel decisions?
– Absolutely not. In the fall, we developed criteria for evaluating coaches using a certain formula. Tomorrow we will see how this formula works in the end.
— Will all coaches of the Russian national team continue their work?
“We don’t have that on the agenda tomorrow.” We will purely formally evaluate the work of the coaches based on criteria. There is a “satisfactory” and “unsatisfactory” rating. But, for example, a “fail” rating does not mean that the coach should be fired, but “satisfactory” does not mean that he should be retained,” Maigurov told .
After the end of the Spartakiad of the Strongest, Istomin told that his group’s performance could be considered a failure. The specialist said that if he were the head of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU), he would make changes in the coaching team.
