Career
As a player
In 1981, Petar Kosturkow began his career in the youth of the Bulgarian vice record champion Levski Sofia . His first position as an active footballer was the third division club Pirin Raslog , to whom he moved in 1988 at the age of 18. With the club he achieved promotion to the B Grupa , the second division. After two years he moved to A Grupa in 1990 , to the first division club Pirin Blagoewgrad from the city of Blagoewgrad, about 30 km from Razlog . After two seasons in which he could not prevail, he joined the second division Spartak Pleven in 1992 . For the 1994/95 season Kosturkow returned to Levski Sofia, where he was Bulgarian champion. In 1996 he moved to the league competitor FK Dobruja .
In 1997 Kosturkow moved internationally to the Austrian Bundesliga promoted SC Austria Lustenau . There he became a regular player straight away and was thus involved in the two-time relegation of Vorarlberg. When the club after the 1999/2000 season as bottom of the table, beaten 16 points behind the penultimate, relegated and at the same time a new foreigner regulation came into force, Kosturkow, who had to pause due to an injury, left the club. Finally he moved to Germany to the then national league club TSV Crailsheim . According to his own statements, he was not aware of having joined a sixth division club. He was instrumental in ensuring that the club marched through from the sixth class regional league to the fourth class league by 2003 and played there for promotion in the first year of membership in the league. In 2006 Kosturkov ended his active career. Since 2011 he has been playing in his spare time for the regional league A-League club TSV Goldbach.
At the side of national football greats such as Jordan Letschkow , Marian Christow and Daniel Borimirow , Petar Kosturkow played twice for the Bulgarian national team .
As a trainer
Even during his active time as a player at TSV Crailsheim , Petar Kosturkow got involved in the club's youth work, as a coach of the C and B juniors, he achieved several championships and promotions. At the same time he completed trainer courses, which he completed with the A license. As a coach of the club's second team, he was promoted to the national league.
As a player -coach he became assistant coach of the TSV's first team under head coach Helmut Dietterle . After Dietterle's dismissal in October 2005, Kosturkow, also in the role of player-coach, was his successor. After he ended his playing career in 2006, he devoted himself full-time to coaching.
Helmut Dietterle, meanwhile manager at VfR Aalen , signed Kosturkow for the 2008/09 season as coach of the club's second team in the Württemberg League . Kosturkow succeeded Rainer Kraft , who from then on only looked after the first team as an assistant coach. Since the second VfR team is U-23, he was increasingly responsible for the further development of young players and their introduction to the third division professional squad of the first team. He succeeded in doing this in the following years, for example with players like Enrico Valentini or Fabian Weiß . Overall, the development of the second team stagnated under Kosturkov's leadership, although in the 2009/10 season the fifth place in the table could be reached. After a year later in the 2010/11 season a lead of three points on the relegation ranks was achieved, the second team of the VfR rose to the national league at the end of the following season 2011/12. Since the first team of the club was promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga in the same season , the area of amateurs and youngsters was reorganized; its new head Stefan Ruthenbeck also took over the training of the second team.
Petar Kosturkow then returned to TSV Crailsheim, where he took over the training of the A-Juniors. From 2013 to 2014 he completed the ten-month course to become a football teacher or the UEFA Pro license at the Hennes-Weisweiler Academy in Bad Hennef, which he successfully passed in April 2014. In the summer of 2014 Kosturkow then switched to women's football and took over the TSV Crailsheim women's team that played in the 2nd Bundesliga South . After advancing to the first division with the U17 juniors in 2016 and taking 6th place with the women in the second division, he switched to coaching for TSV Ilshofen . For the 2017/18 season he took over the coaching position at the Lower Saxon upper division club BV Cloppenburg . On October 15, 2017, Kosturkow resigned from his position after asking the association's board to terminate his contract the week before for personal reasons. In the future he will train the Württemberg league club Sportfreunde Schwäbisch Hall .
