I reached out to a local club yesterday, after contacting my local FA enquiring how to get into coaching. I've got my first training session this Thursday and I can't wait for my journey to start! Very good video, thank you
This is brilliant, thank you ! I am 22 years old & fascinated by the tactical insight & philosophy carried out by some of the best in the game which has made me want to learn myself & slowly progress into professional coach/management. Thank you ever so much.
Thanks so much for that feedback! Totally agree developing players/teams as well as yourself as a coach is amazing and really rewarding - always so much to learn 🙌
I've been saying for about 12 years i was going to get into coaching, i finally completed the BT Playmaker a few months ago and going onto the level 1 in coaching football in August! great video
That is brilliant, good for you!! It is a clear pathway when you know the steps and combining the qualifications with regular delivery and time on the grass will see you progress quick!!
Thankyou brother...this is what I've wanted to do since I was a child...and before seeing your video I was very clueless now it's not the same...thankyou
The video was so helpfull and I personally would love to be a football coach thanks for all of the steps explained in detail as well as the moral boost. :):):)
Thank you so much for this detailed video it has helped me understand the process I want to be as help as possible for my husband as he enters his coaching journey I wanted to know if he could go straight into UEFA B licences or must he complete the other courses first
Great video bro 😊 I’m coaching high school football in Thailand and want to do the Level 1 course. The problem is that I don’t think I can get a level 2 from outside of the UK. Any ideas.
Hi, thank you for this informative video, I have been playing professional football for more than 12 years in my country from U12-U21to senior team of my city, I recently moved to the UK and I applied for a part-time coaching job here, looking at my CV they called me right away but they demanded FA safeguarding certificate and First Aid Certificate, can you please guide me how can i get these certificates , are these online courses or do i have to take them face to face ?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge about coaching. I am now sure that i want to take this journey but needed a guide on what to do om the journey which you have helped with. The only question i would have is that when you start higher qualifications (uefa b and above) would accomodation be included in the course or would you have to find your own way to stay near the area which the course is happening at?
You would do that yourself. You may be able to find a course being delivered that isn’t too far away which will also stop you having to do that but that is all dependent on location Good luck with it 😊⚽️
Hi there, fantastic video and great insight. I have a question. I'm really interested in getting into coaching but I haven't played football in over 5 years and was never really good at it. Would you still recommend this a career path for me or would me not playing football cause a problem for myself.
You don’t have to have played the game to be a coach. It definitely helps to have played as you naturally learn plenty about the game whilst playing but if you are really keen and eager to learn then you can definitely still be a coach without having a playing background.
No it doesn’t. It’s certainly not a negative if the degree it is to do with sport but it isn’t really a requirement. Specific football coaching qualifications and hours on the training pitch is what it is all about!
Contact the school in a professional way. Offer evidence as to why you would be a good fit: qualifications, background, experience etc. Offer taster sessions maybe at no cost to establish relationship. Follow up initial contact - they are very unlikely to come straight back to you. Good luck.
I am outside of england.but can i use my introduction to football caoching or fa level 1 certificate in other parts of Europe to get or apply for a uefa c license??please share your knowledge i cant find an answer anywhere 😢
Yes coaching badges still carry weight in different countries. I know a few coaches who have come to the UK having obtained their coaching licenses in other countries and they can still go for and get the same jobs as the coaches who did their qualifications in the UK 👍👍
@@acceleratefootballcoaching6655 ty for the reply, just one thing is it normal for your local fa to have low slots on the coaching license bc in mine only 30 people per year can take it.
Hey man, I have an important question. When I get my badges, how do I then get a job that’s qualified for that specific badge. For example, if I get my b license, how do I get a job in a professional team or set up? Do I email them? Or does the FA help me contact them? Hopefully u see this
Hi. Thanks for your message. If you are going for your B license, by the time you have that you will probably have a fair bit of coaching experience and you will have built up a CV. Pro academies are always looking for B licensed coaches as there is quite a shortage who are available. So if you contact the club and specifically the Head of Youth/Acdemy Manager/Phase Lead then you will usually be well received. Asking to go and have a look at how they do things also provides good learning and gets you a foot in the door as well.
@@acceleratefootballcoaching6655 thank you so much for the reply. I have one last question. I am from Canada can I still take fa coaches badges? Will my fa badges be well received here or will I have to move to england to take the badges. Cause I feel like with me holding a European coaching badge wether it’s English fa or Scottish fa it’ll give me a boos get here. Do u think that’s the case?
@@acceleratefootballcoaching6655 and one last question sorry. Can the fa organization also help you find coaching jobs in professional academies? Will they recommend u
I would love to ask this question, so what if you are from Africa (Ghana)and want to do your full coaching course in another country due to the identity you want and play style in coaching you want. Is it that much achievable and why ?
You would have to be located in that country but yes you can follow the pathway. I know plenty of English coaches who have got their qualifications in other countries, often due to them being cheaper elsewhere ⚽️
@@acceleratefootballcoaching6655 so with your experience which coaching academy is the best when it comes to teaching attacking football like the total football ideology
Hey there! Very nice video. I’m 21 years old and want to start a career in coaching. I’m currently in Australia, can i do it here? I want to become a professional coach. Thanks.
Absolutely, you can coach anywhere and it will be reasonably similar process. The qualifications will just fall under the Australian umbrella rather than the English FA. Keep checking in and let me know your progress. Starting the journey is the most important part!
Hi. Thanks for your comment! As I have currently got my UEFA B and haven’t progressed to A license I didn’t feel I had as much to share on that. However you (in most cases) have to be working within a pro club to be accepted on to the course for the UEFA A License. The Pro license is usually only taken by very established, experienced coaches and both the A license and pro license are very expensive and often contributions from clubs make them more realistic for coaches. Pro license also starts to look at the financial side of the game. I’d like to get to that stage in the next few years!!
@@acceleratefootballcoaching6655 so you wouldn't suggest a guy like me who never ever played any football at any level to enter this route? Because if I get in I'm gonna go for the best license possible. Do you think it's realistic to for me to do it? Will it be possible for me?
Just go for it mate! You don’t have to be mega experienced as a player to be a coach, it certainly doesn’t do any harm but the best players don’t necessarily make the best coaches. If you are determined and willing to learn then you can go where you want 👍
Hi, i am looking to apply for FA Level 2 in Coaching Football course but it requires me to be coaching at a club. Is there a football coach recruitment website so that I can complete the course as well as joining a club as a coach.
You can join any local grassroots club. The best thing to do is look for local charter standard football clubs in your area and approach them and let them know you are looking to volunteer and complete your hours of delivery for your level 2 whilst there 👍😊
Start it now bud!! Get out into some grassroots environments for some hands on experience and look into the playmaker, the best time to start is always now 💙 ⚽️
@@mustafaelsufii4670 yeah bro their are German coaching badges and they’re the cheapest that’s why Germany produce the most coaches so I think imma do those ones. U on Snapchat or sumthing? I can send u
Hello. I'm 23. I'm desperately interested in becoming a FIFA Licenced coach! My questiions are; Is that analyzed information at the side of your video leading us to obtaining a real beginner coaching licence that would be upgraded to an upper licence that is recognised by FIFA. Can i contact you personally for better understanding?
The information at the side helps to show key information like how much the courses cost and how long they take etc. These courses are the ones recognised across the game in Europe and beyond. UEFA C is of high value and then not many coaches go on past that. UEFA B allows you to work in pro academies etc and then the A license opens you up to the full time professional game.

No it doesn’t. It’s certainly not a negative if the degree it is to do with sport but it isn’t really a requirement. Specific football coaching qualifications and hours on the training pitch is what it is all about!
Could you please suggest books to read in the field of football coaching
Do you know how to get into schools? Doing football coach after school?
Contact the school in a professional way.
Offer evidence as to why you would be a good fit: qualifications, background, experience etc.
Offer taster sessions maybe at no cost to establish relationship.
Follow up initial contact - they are very unlikely to come straight back to you.
Good luck.
