TESTIMONIAL
“The visit in Estonia was a fantastic experience that showed me a different perspective of football. The openness and willingness to share knowledge that Alex and other FCI Levadia coaches showed was remarkable. The opportunity provided by Football Courses is great for an aspiring coach who aims to grow, not only as a professional, but also a person.”

TESTIMONIAL
“I have really enjoyed signing up to the course that Football courses have available. I have really enjoyed getting to see a new country (Estonia) and the football that is developing over there. Alex Piache has been a superb host and mentor and I have really enjoyed his company and exploring the work going on within FCI Levadia.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested in football and coaches also as this has been a very interesting experience and I would definitely look into other courses that are on offer at Football Courses.”

TESTIMONIAL
“Latvia was an amazing experience to watch lots of different coaches taking their teams training sessions, and the methods they use out there were interesting. We coaches definitely picked up some new ideas and methods that we are going to tweak/add into our sessions. The meetings with coaches were extremely beneficial, asking questions, understanding the culture, the history of Latvian football, etc. Watching the matches was great too to see the level in Latvia, how they warm up prematch preparation, and how they set up tactically during the match. Lots of learning and information gained. I would highly recommend this to any coach that wants to go out and learn something new. Football courses have been great!”
