Coerver® Coaching and Rudi Skacel are delighted to announce the launch of the Coerver® Coaching “Play Like The Stars” coaching programme, which will start during February 2014. The new programme will offer young players the chance to learn how to play like their hero and help educate coaches in the finer skills of the game.
Skacel had two spells with Hearts, signing on loan from Marseille in 2005 and scoring 16 goals in 35 appearances before returning on a permanent basis in 2010. During this period he kept up his impressive scoring record, netting 25 in 58 appearances including a starring role in Hearts’ 5-1 demolition of Edinburgh rivals Hibernian in the 2012 Scottish Cup final.
For 30 years Coerver® Coaching has used Star Players and Teams as teaching models to help develop the next generation of young players across the globe. “Play Like The Stars” will be open to young players aged 7-14 years offering monthly training based around the star qualities of the former Czech International focusing on developing skilful, confident, creative footballers.
Coerver® Coaching Director Gordon Craig said “Throughout our history we have worked with some of the game’s leading players, right back to players such as Rivelino, Matthews and Beckenbauer, using them as teaching models. We are looking forward to working with Rudi, allowing our coaches to analyse and break down some of the skills and outstanding attributes he brought to Scottish Football during his time at Hearts. He has been one of the exciting players in our game in modern years and we believe he is an outstanding role model to inspire young players”.
The program will offer a monthly development session lead by Coerver® Head Coaches with Rudi attending to pass on advice and guidance to the players. Each clinic will include video analysis, question and answer with Rudi as well as intensive “serious fun” training sessions, players will also receive home assignments to practice between clinics.
