Kazakhstan Representatives Participated in the UEFA Conference

The 5th UEFA Conference for Technical Directors and Head Coaches of Women's National Teams was held in Zurich, Switzerland.
The Kazakhstan Football Federation (KFF) was represented at the forum by KFF Technical Director Gennady Skurtul and Head Coach of the Kazakhstan Women's National Team Madiyar Kembilov.
On the first day of the conference, UEFA experts summarized the results of the 2025 UEFA Women's European Championship, presented a technical analysis of the tournament, and discussed key trends in the development of women's football in Europe. A coaches' forum also took place, addressing issues related to the preparation and development of national teams.
On the second day, a working seminar for technical directors was held. KFF Technical Director Gennady Skurtul delivered a presentation on behalf of the working group. His presentation focused on the problems and challenges of players transitioning from youth to senior football. This stage of athlete development was noted as one of the most critical for building competitive national teams. Gennady Skurtul noted:
"The issue of the transition from youth to adult football is key to the entire training system. Not only the success of our national teams tomorrow, but also the quality of football in the country as a whole, depends on how well we manage to structure this process."
The participation of Kazakhstani representatives in international events of this level allows them to adopt best practices, strengthen ties with leading European football associations, and shape a strategic vision for the further development of women's and youth football in the country.
