Brazil-UK Football Development Course

“The 2009 Brazil UK Football development course has successfully run for the last two years. Building upon the initial course, the 2008 programme was held in the University of São Paulo and I feel the relationships and knowledge base is developing for the benefit of all students of the game.The 2009 programme centres on the development of young players from an international perspective and the content promises to be challenging and thought provoking.”

Developing Young Players Through Football

This course will be of interest to football coaches, teachers and students with an interest in ‘the beautiful game’ and developing young players.

Coaching styles will be presented to students through practical examples directly applicable to football. These areas will be approached from combined Brazilian and English viewpoints.

Experienced lecturers and renowned coaches from the University of SãoPaulo (rated the ‘best University in Latin America’ by the Academic Ranking of World Universities), will be delivering workshops, including those on parental influence and talent identification. Members of the English Football Association and staff from the University of Worcester will also be giving significant input, on areas including Performance Analysis and Youth Football.

This course offers an exchange of methods of football practice between English and Brazilian students, and the opportunity to visit and experience a new country.
