Born in the Far North, this probably explains the love for ice.
For the first time she tried her hand at Amateur hockey quite late, at the age of 28, in Japan.
A couple of years as part of the Japanese Amateur women's team Chunichi Ladies finally made me fall in love with this sport.
Then a return to Russia, a ten-year break and a chance meeting with the St. Petersburg Amateur team, The Red Rockets.

While training with this team, I realized that my love for hockey hadn't gone anywhere, but after the experience of coaching in Japan, I wanted something more.
At the same time, the dream of organizing bright and beautiful tournaments for fans, both in the Russian Federation and internationally, has burned in the heart.
Combine your favorite sport with travel, holidays, exchange of experiences, new acquaintances.
This is how our project with my husband "Encouraged by Hockey" was born
Now, every training we do, every outing, every tournament... it's a party for me!
And I try to adjust all my complex and busy work schedule for hockey life.
I really want women's hockey to become even more popular and affordable in Russia!
I hope to do everything possible and impossible for this.
