Simas Skinderis (born 17 February 1981) is a retired Lithuanian professional footballer. He has played as goalkeeper in clubs in Lithuania, Kazakhstan and Belarus.

He ended his career in 2017 while playing for Nevėžis in the LFF I Lyga.[1] Skinderis has since resided in Belarus since 2009 and is a coach for a private football academy.

In a January 2021 interview with Russian news portal Tribuna, Skinderis expressed support for the regime of Alexander Lukashenko and made controversial statements about the protest movement of 2020-2021, saying that "Belarusians have a slightly kolkhoz-like mentality and you have to treat them more harshly" and that "order needs to be preserved and no gay-parades should be started etc".[2][3] His remarks were criticized by sports journalist Alexander Ivulin.[4]
