Channel Title: Youth Professional Training Channel Description: I am an American coach and trainer who has spent the last 15+ years traveling Europe to visit many of the best pro academies for the sole purpose of observing how young players are developed at the highest level. I have been fortunate to visit Real Madrid, Inter Milan, Manchester United, PSV Eindhoven, Bayern Munich, Ajax, SL Benfica, AC Milan, Club Brugge, FC Barcelona and others. Many of the videos I have recorded myself. I have good friends and contacts at many of these clubs and return as often as I can to stay current with what is happening at the highest level of youth player development. I have been extremely fortunate to have doors opened that don’t always get easily opened for outsiders and I feel a strong obligation to pass on as much of what I have learned as I can to those who can use it the most. If I can be of any help to you or your team please DM me. I would be happy to help you if I can.

If you run a team/cub/academy please watch this. Description: This might be my most important post ever and it’s about something that has been genuinely interesting to me so I hope everyone sees it. Like Pep said: ‘It’s not just about the skills’. At every top academy I have been fortunate to visit everything begins, and ends, with a handshake. It is truly impressive to watch players, some as young as 7 or 8 years old, look an adult in the eye and shake hands before, and after, every session and/or match. It is a sign of respect from one to another: from coach to player and from player to coach. I have seen this at every top club but my most vivid memory of this was during one of my first visits to Manchester United’s academy. It happened at ‘The Cliff’, their legendary training ground where some of Man U’s biggest stars were trained and developed. There are changing rooms for each team and there is also a coaches room where the trainers gather, prepare and relax before each session and I was welcomed into this room. It was relatively small, with benches around each wall, and a table in the middle. Once all of the trainers were changed they just sat and talked and because this was England there was, of course, tea. There were 7 or 8 trainers sitting around chatting and it was fantastic. The door was open so you could see the players as they walked past but before each one did they would stop, drop their bag, enter the room and shake hands with every trainer, including me. I was absolutely blown away by this. These were players 7/8/9/10 years old but it didn’t matter that they didn’t know who I was. They went around the room, looked every adult in the eye, and shook hands before going on their way. It was truly impressive. Unfortunately, this is not so common here in the United States but I think it should change. This is an important life skill that is lacking here. If you run a team, club or academy and want to set yourself apart from everyone else…implement this TODAY. It’s not just about the skills or winning or losing. Lastly, for me…it’s also about the smiles. Watch it again. #soccer #football </video> <video> Eintracht Frankfurt e.
