Chris Rafael Sabater – Former Community Coach at Chelsea FC, London, UK
“'I am a professional football coach working in schools and clubs and have travelled all around the world. I have really enjoyed the literature in this course and it has made me think about how I should address my coaching sessions. I want to progress in the field of sport psychology and this course has whetted my appetite for this subject.”
Michelle Chai, Deputy Director Media & Communications, Asian Football Confederation
“I find it absolutely brilliant, especially the setting of the whole situation (as a coach in a club), rather than just a dry club.
Tracy Scott, Head Coach for Desoto County Soccer Association, Mississippi, USA
“Wow what a wonderful course! Thank you for the time and effort to make this possible.”
Nick Morgan, Billericay Youth Football Club, Essex, UK
I completed the final assessment on Monday night and just wanted to say thank you to all those involved for what I found to be a most enjoyable and informative course. I have already made use of some advice given through the forum which worked really well and hope to continue to get help and advice when needed. Thanks again and good luck to all fellow learners.
