My journey as a player led me to significant achievements, including winning the National Championship with Lokomotiv Academy in 2006, where I was recognized as one of the best players of my age group. I went on to sign a professional contract with FC Lokomotiv Moscow, where I experienced immense growth and became a silver medalist in the Russian Premier League. My career continued with Khimki Moscow Region, and I later captained a top team in Latvia’s Virsliga, where I was honored as the captain of the team.

Throughout my career, I’ve traveled the world, gaining invaluable insights and a deep understanding of the challenges and triumphs that young players face. This experience has shaped my coaching philosophy and my desire to guide the next generation of soccer players.

Over the past decade, I’ve turned my focus to coaching, sharing my knowledge with young players. I’ve had the privilege to coach for elite programs such as Rapids Youth Select, the Olympic Development Program, and Soccer IQ Academy. I know firsthand the journey from youth soccer to the professional stage, and I’m passionate about helping young players in Colorado reach their full potential.

Danil Kobzar brings something most coaches simply cannot offer — the experience of having competed at the highest levels of the game on three different continents.

As a youth player at FC Shakhtar Donetsk Academy, one of Eastern Europe's most prestigious clubs, Danil competed in the UEFA Youth League against the academies of PSG, Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Arsenal, and Juventus. That experience — testing himself against the best young players in the world — shaped not just his technical ability, but his deep understanding of what elite soccer truly demands. He went on to play professionally in Ukraine's First Division, Brazil's Série C, and Japan's Second Division, building a career that spanned three continents and exposed him to radically different styles and philosophies of the game.

Now five years into his coaching career, Danil brings every mile of that journey to the training pitch. He leads private sessions, you can see him at Soccer School and Team Chemistry sessions, and he serves as the head coach of two SIQ's Futsal teams. Holding his USSF coaching license, he coaches with a philosophy built on honesty, discipline, and relentless heart.

"I love football for its honesty — here, everything is decided by hard work, discipline, and heart. It has taught me never to give up, to keep moving forward, to respect the team, and to fight until the very last second. The field is the place where I feel truly alive. In every player, I see myself — with the same desire to become better."
