Inspired by the revolutionary football development philosophy of legendary Dutch coach Wiel Coerver, Coerver® Coaching was founded in 1984 by Alf Galustian and former Chelsea great, Charlie Cooke.
Since 1984, Coerver® Coaching has been at the center of the evolution of skilful, modern football, and is now a recognised leader in youth football education worldwide.
The Coerver® methodology is currently delivered to players, coaches and clubs in excess of 50 countries globally at all levels of the game.
Since 1984, the mission of Coerver Coaching is to develop players who are
SKILLED
CONFIDENT
CREATIVE
but also have the skills to go it alone (1v1)
Astonishing claims of quality on the glossy website contrasted hugely with the training actually seen - repetitive/monotonous exercises, little discipline among players etc and online communication was non-existent (incl no advice of a cancelled session). The much hyped 'trials' are actually just a taster session; I'd be amazed if they ever turned any fee-paying 'players' away. The fact that the session had around 30 kids across age groups suggests others are presumably happy with it - the fact that it had no goalkeepers whatsoever highlights the absurdity of the claims of quality. Good branding and marketing but not a route to serious skills development.
