FIFA fitness and youth courses held in Singapore

The Fitness Coaching Course saw participants, consisting of not only coaches but also other sports trainers, learn about the latest developments in fitness coaching from FIFA Fitness Instructor Tobias Wawroschek of Germany.

The coaches who participated in the course were coaching at various levels of competition and age, from the S.League to National Football Academy and Centre of Excellence (COE) teams. The varied profile of the participants allowed a greater intersection of players to benefit from the course.

Wawroschek said: “The participants are really motivated which is great. I think the first step is to provide an overview on how to introduce a fitness coach into the football team and the role of the fitness coach. I hope to give them input for their daily work on the pitch with their teams, so that they will learn to understand the basics of fitness and start to introduce exercises to improve their players’ fitness levels.”
