Nina Patalon
Head Coach, Poland Women’s National Football Team
The first woman in history to hold this position and the first Polish coach with a UEFA Pro licence. She has been associated with the Polish Football Association for many years—having led youth national teams and served as the coordinator of women’s football development. Today, she is in charge of the senior national team. In 2025, she guided Poland to their first-ever qualification for the UEFA Women’s European Championship. She is a symbol of change in Polish football, combining the experience of a player, coach, and mentor, while actively supporting the development of future generations of female players and coaches. She believes that football is a space where women can fully realize their potential, and her goal is to build strong foundations for the continued growth of women’s football in Poland.
