The BeNeVoetbal conference was at the right moment in my career, What is talent and how do we identify it as a coach? Answers were given by presenters with an international background. I would recommend every football coach to attend this conference.

Al Shabab Al Arabi Club

Lead Academy Fitness Coach

In order to develop my social skills, I moved to Dubai as it felt the right thing to do after living in Saudi Arabia for two years. The fact that I did not get a scholarship to do a PhD in Sport Coaching at the University of Sydney contributed to this move as well. So I started working as the lead academy fitness coach at Al Shabab Al Arabi Club. I was responsible for the physical development of the academy players (U6-U19) but also assisted with U19 training sessions and analyzed the opposition during their games.
