Official: SAP Coaches for 2011/2012

Football NSW SAP is a Football NSW initiative aimed at laying down the foundations required to give the best youth footballers the highest chance possible to succeed at the elite level between the ages of 9-12.
In order for the identification process to commence, expert coaches and coaching coordinators have been appointed under the watchful eye of former Socceroos skipper and Football NSW Technical Director Alex Tobin.
Former Young Socceroos, Olyroos, NSL greats and Socceroos stars such as Paul Wade, Peter Katholos, Gerry Gomez, Ufuk Talay, Damien Brown and Saso Petrovski are just some of the many names ready to take charge in their respective regions for the SAP program in the coming year.
Tobin was delighted to have secured the services of all his coaches and coaching coordinators whom he believed would develop aspiring youngsters to the elite level.
?It?s very exciting to know that so many experienced coaches are working with some of our youngest talented players.
?Many of our SAP coaches bring a wealth of experience and we are confident that our young NSW players will see the benefits throughout their Skill Acquisition Program.
?Everyone is looking forward to the challenge.?
