UEFA member federation deploys EasyCoach to unify national team operations, coach education, and competition management across Kazakhstan – building the infrastructure for sustainable football development.

A Unified Infrastructure Across Operations
The Kazakhstan Football Federation announced a comprehensive partnership with EasyCoach, a leading platform for federation and club management systems, to implement unified infrastructure across national team operations, coach education, and competition management throughout Kazakhstan.
The Kazakhstan Football Federation, a UEFA member since 2002, has demonstrated significant development in recent years. Originally part of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), Kazakhstan joined UEFA to seek stronger competition, resulting in increased funding and investment in football infrastructure.
This partnership marks a pivotal step in Kazakhstan’s strategy to modernize football operations, replacing fragmented tools with a single connected system that links daily operations, coaching standards, and player development.
A Comprehensive Platform for National Teams, Coach Education, and Competition Management
Under the agreement, the federation will deploy EasyCoach National Teams for men’s and women’s senior and youth national team operations, including camp management, call-ups, player monitoring, cross-age-group visibility, and staff coordination.
The platform will also support EasyCoach Coach Education (LMS) for nationwide coaching certification, licensing, and professional development – delivering methodology, courses, assessments, and coach development at scale.
Additionally, the federation will implement the following modules to centralize operations:
- EasyCoach Hub: centralized coach profiles, qualifications, licensing status, and education history in one federation-wide database.
- EasyCoach Competition Management: running domestic competitions through shared registrations, fixtures, results, and federation-to-club connectivity.
- Coaching Clinics & Training Camps: end-to-end support for the federation’s nationwide programs.
- Federation-to-Club Connectivity: a single source of truth across departments and member clubs.
Vision for Men’s and Women’s Football Development
Ghenadie Scurtul, Technical Director at Kazakhstan Football Federation, said: “Our ambition is to build an integrated football development system in Kazakhstan, where national teams, coach education, player development, and competition management are connected through one modern platform. EasyCoach will help us strengthen coordination across departments, improve operational standards, and support the long-term development of football in Kazakhstan for both men and women. This partnership is not only about technology, but about creating the infrastructure and working methods needed for sustainable progress.”
Supporting UEFA Growth with Professional Infrastructure
“We are excited to support the Kazakhstan Football Federation’s technology leap forward,” said Gabby Barzilay, CEO of EasyCoach. “They’re building the foundation for sustained competitiveness in European football by connecting education, training, competition management and working methodologies in one place. We’re proud to be their partner in this ambitious vision and we thank them for their trust.”
EasyCoach supports over 150 clubs and federations, including the Croatian Football Federation, Israeli Football Association, Villarreal CF, and Ukrainian club Shakhtar Donetsk-a roster that now expands further into Central Asia and the wider UEFA region with the addition of the Kazakhstan Football Federation.
For Kazakhstan, the partnership reinforces a long-term vision: connect grassroots to elite levels, professionalize the coaching pathway, and run domestic competitions with the same operational rigor as the country’s senior international fixtures.
