Coaching career


In 2006, Ilievski was hired as an assistant coach to KFÍ's men's team as well as the head coach of the club's youth program.[1] He took over as head coach of the men's team in end of November 2006 after Baldur Ingi Jónasson resigned.[2] After winning the 1. deild karla with the team in 2010, and achieving promotion to the top-tier Úrvalsdeild karla, Ilievski was not retained by the club at the conclusion of his contract despite also being the 1. deild karla Coach of the Year.[3]

In May 2010, Ilievski went on to sign with Úrvalsdeild club Tindastóll.[4] He guided Tindastóll to a 9th-place finish with a 7–14 record during his first season.[5] He resigned as head coach three games into his second season after a disagreement with board about the need to strengthen the roster.[6]

He guided 2. deild karla club Bolungarvík for the final games of the 2011–2012 season, where the team bowed out in the first round of the playoffs.[7][8]

In June 2012, Ilievski was hired as the head coach of Breiðablik.[9] After guiding the team to a 9–9 record, he received a two-year contract extension in April 2013.[10] In December 2014, he was relieved of his duties as head coach by the board of Breiðablik.[11]

After starting the 2015–2016 as an assistant coach to ÍR, Ilievski was promoted to head coach when Bjarni Magnússon resigned as head coach six games into the season.[12][13] He guided the club to the playoffs during his second season where it was swept by Stjarnan in the first round.[14]

In 2018, Ilievski led ÍR to the second best record in the league.[15] They faced Stjarnan in the first round of the playoffs for the second straight year in what turned out to be a heated series. In game three of the series, Stjarnan's Hlynur Bæringsson was fouled hard by ÍR's Ryan Taylor[16] After the game he experienced concussion like symptoms[17] and was ultimately ruled out of game four which Stjarnan eventually lost after Danero Thomas scored the game winning basket at the buzzer.[18] Although Taylor received an unsportsmanlike foul, he was not ejected from the game.[19] After the game he received a three-game suspension from the league.[20] In the semi-finals, ÍR ultimately lost to Tindastóll in four games.[21]

In February 2019, Ilievski led ÍR to the semi-finals of the Icelandic Cup where it faced Stjarnan in a tension filled game were fighting broke out between fans during the game.[22] ÍR ultimately lost the game, 87–73.[23] In the Úrvalsdeild, ÍR finished with the 7th best record and faced second seed Njarðvík in the first round. After losing the first two games in the best-of-five series, ÍR unexpectedly won the next three and knocked out Njarðvík.[24] In the semi-finals, ÍR faced top-seed and heavy title favorites Stjarnan. After losing the first game by 33 points,[25] ÍR bounced back and took the next two games before Stjarnan tying the series with a comfortable 90–75 victory in game four.[26] In game five, ÍR came out on top with an 83–79 victory and advanced to the finals.[27][28] In the finals, ÍR lost 2–3 to KR after leading 2–1. After the season, Ilievski was named as the Úrvalsdeild Coach of the Year.[29]

Ilievski resigned from ÍR following a 0–3 start to the 2021–22 season.[30]

In May 2022, Ilievski was hired as the head coach of Fjölnir men's team.[31]
