LIVERPOOL FC AMERICA SENIOR COACHES TO ATTEND SEVEN DAYS OF TRAINING AT LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL CLUB ACADEMY IN LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND

The Liverpool FC America senior staff coaches/directors have been invited to experience and learn the world renown training curriculum, methodology and philosophy of the Liverpool FC Academy.

Beginning on Monday February 18, 2013, the Liverpool FC America Directors Lee Weddall, Keri Baker, Chris Pulpaneck, Tom Blencoe, Matt Veasey, Wilco Ravestijn and Jimmy Melia begin an unprecedented seven-day training opportunity to experience the methodology and training techniques of the Liverpool Football Club Academy in Liverpool, England. The trip's itinerary was designed by the coaches of the Liverpool FC International Football Academy to give the greatest exposure to all facets of the Liverpool training including;

  • Academy Training Sessions
  • Matches at The Academy among different age groups
  • Match-day experience at Anfield
  • Training of the First Team
  • Academy classroom sessions

"It is a world-class trip for our coaches and we have challenged them to come back with a deeper understanding of what it means to be a part of the Liverpool FC and the Liverpool International Football Academy both on and off the field and then to share that information and pride with our coaching staff.  We hope to have several additional coaches participate in this program during future trips,” said Chief Executive Officer Peter Brody on Thursday.
