Episode 88 - A look at academy coaching, a conversation with Ross O'Kane, UEFA A and Advanced Youth Award Coach

In this episode we talk with Ross O’Kane about his experience of coaching in the academy system for the past twelve years.

Ross talks to us about his time as foundation phase lead coach at Luton FC and his approach to coaching. We discuss how academies approach player development, how sessions are structured and when a player might be played in a specific position. Ross also tells us about Street Football Tournaments and why he felt the need to set it up.
