Manchester United’s lead pre-academy coaches shared skills with the Old Edwardian soccer players

Manchester United’s lead pre-academy coaches trained Old Edwardians U7, 8 and 10.

Manchester United’s lead pre-academy coaches hosted a coaching clinic while sharing skills at the Old Edwardians grounds on July 12.

The Old Eds chairperson Faheem Laher said the SuperSport School Global Soccer Academy organised two coaches from the Manchester United academy to train players in various age groups.

“This is to motivate them and give them a chance to be coached by other experienced coaches. This is good for them because they are still developing and growing in the sport,” said Laher.

The chairperson noted that the coaching clinic was also good for Old Eds coaches because they learnt certain techniques from the two United coaches.
