Dmitryi Nikolaevich Besov
1. Dmitryi Nikolaevich Besov
The founder and the first headmaster
of football school “Smena”.
Performed by Oksana Chava
School 473 St. Petersburg
2. I’d like to tell about the
person whom hundreds and
hundreds of boys in our
country will always be
grateful for the opportunity
to play football.
This year D.N. Besov is 89.!
He is a living legend in the
history of football not only of
Leningrad, St. Petersburg, the
former Soviet Union, Russia
but the whole world.
Only due to his all-out efforts,
high professionalism, selfdevotion to football the
construction of school in
Vernosty street was chiefly
completed by 1976.
3. D. N. Besov recalls: “The Mass
Media is not blowing the
trumpets all over the world
about us yet, but 700
Leningrad boys have already
forgotten about
backstreets, know nothing and
care less about drugs, beer and
cigarettes. They are taking
hard and complex lessons of
football skills to become
winners in sport and life”.
4. Dmitryi Nikolaevich was
born into the family of
doctors. He has been
playing football all his life
except for war years. When
he became the chief coach
after the war, he understood
how many talented boys
there were in Leningrad and
he did his best to bring up
champions.
5. I hope, that one day my pupils on the one hand, and young
footballers on the other hand, will glorify the sport school they
are studying at and never will forget the man whose life was
devoted to football.
