🧑‍🏫 About Coach Alina

With extensive experience in basketball, both as an athlete and as a coach, Alina has learned that basketball is much more than a sport. It is a continuous process of self-improvement, in which discipline, work and sacrifice are essential to achieve performance. Alina has been with Laguna Sharks since 2009, providing children with not only the technical knowledge of the game, but also valuable lessons about life.Coach Alina

"In so many years of basketball, I have learned that it is more than a sport – it is a continuous competition with myself and my opponents. The adrenaline of a match, the desire to win and overcome the limits make me feel alive. Basketball has taught me what work means, sacrifice and, most importantly, how to enjoy every moment on the court."

💬 Motto: "Success in basketball doesn't just come from talent, it also comes from work."
