In his speech at the opening ceremony, Mr. Koshida Takeshi, Technical Director of VFF and course instructor, expressed his sympathy for the damage caused by the storms and floods in the northern provinces and was pleased that some trainees from the North were able to travel to Gia Lai to attend the course. “The ‘C’ course is the starting point for coaches’ careers. Over the next two weeks, Mr. Lê Huỳnh Đức and I will strive to impart knowledge to the coaches. I hope that the trainees will take what they have learned back to their local areas and pass it on to players to help them develop in the best possible way,” Mr. Koshida Takeshi emphasized.
Also speaking at the opening ceremony, instructor Lê Huỳnh Đức shared: “I have experience participating in many coaching courses. Therefore, I am eager to work with Mr. Koshida Takeshi to teach and organize this ‘C’ course for VFF. There are currently many grassroots football centers in Vietnam, and this course will provide the foundational knowledge for coaches. I hope that coaches will make the most of this opportunity and continue their education by pursuing ‘B’, ‘A’, and eventually ‘PRO’ coaching licenses.”
