OUR HISTORY
Inspired by the philosophy of legendary Dutch coach Wiel Coerver, Coerver® Coaching was founded in 1984 by Alf Galustian and Chelsea legend Charlie Cooke. The Coerver® methodology is currently delivered to players, coaches and clubs in more than 50 countries across the globe at all levels of the game.
WE BELIEVE
Skill is the FOUNDATION that all other parts of the game can be built on.
Excellence requires planned, deliberate practice of increasing difficulty (OUR METHOD).
Repetition, especially at an early age, is a critical step to internalising CORE SKILLS.
Ultimately, team success depends on the individual and small group qualities of the players. (OUR CURRICULUM)
The skills of the greatest players and teams are the best models for young players to learn from. (STAR MODELS)
