I played soccer recreationally in weekend leagues for 10 years, coached my son for six and rose to advanced AYSO coach and a member of the AYSO Evanston board before stepping way from the game. I have since returned, passing the IHSA coaching course in 2025 and working with Super Soccer Stars as a coach and assistant coach, teaching children ages 5-12.

Whether you’re new to the game or looking to refine your skills, I am here to support your journey every step of the way!!

What students say...

"My first lesson with Vova was both fun and insightful. He has an amazing ability to explain complex concepts in a way that makes sense right away. We focused on dinking and footwork, and he showed me how small adjustments could completely change the outcome of a rally. I couldn’t believe how much progress I made in just an hour. Vova’s energy and passion for the game make him an exceptional coach—I can’t wait for my next lesson!

Nathaniel Bryant profile
About Nathaniel

The game of basketball has given me so much joy in life! I love the way the ball sounds when you bounce it. I love the way the net sounds when the ball goes in. I love shooting on mini hoops, regulation sized hoops, swimming pool hoops, and anything in between. If there's a hoop and a ball, I'm playing. Heck, I remember playing on crates when I was younger. I love playing inside, outside, it doesn't matter. I love getting into a stance and locking somebody up on defense. I love outhustling everybody on the other team for loose balls. I love making my teammates better and being a leader on the court. I want to share my 35 + years of basketball knowledge and experience with boys and girls of all ages in hopes of helping them become the best basketball players and human beings they can possibly be (they go hand in hand). If you bring me on as your personal basketball coach, we will spend time on the court (offense and defense) as well as break down film (watching film is what helps you pick up on new moves). I look forward to working with you!
