Passionate football coach always trying to improve knowledge and skills of the most interesting sport ever.
More than 16 years of experience as youth players coach of all ages from U6 to U19. Assistant coach of adult teams for a couple of seasons.
Founder of www.lucamistercalcio.com, website of free contents for football coaches. Articles and video analysis producer, books writer and translator from English to Italian and vice versa.
My goal is to be part of an international football (soccer) academy, organization or team to work on field every day.
I think youth soccer is the best for me, rather than adult teams. The children/boys ages really don’t mind, or anyway, it is not the main problem, by my side.
I like to stay on the pitch, first of all. Maybe boys soccer could be better to me, because of my history; but I may even learn how to work with girls too.
