Soccerpro Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 After recently living in Edmonton for two years, I can say that's Calgary is doing some big things when it comes to development. While Edmonton had the FC Edmonton academy, Calgary has lots of highly educated youth coaches who are developing some really good players. Calgary foothills is leading the charge for what a Canadian soccer club should look like. Calgary kids are already at West Ham, Chelsea, Stuttgart...etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shermanator Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Also Calgary's supporters group is top class thanks to some studs leading the way... But in all seriousness, to have your UEFA A License at age 30 is a pretty good achievement. Wonder if he'll ever get a chance in the pro ranks?

SWU Premiers (U18G this year) medalled for 4th year in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 I wonder if he is still together with the German beauty pageant winner! Too bad what happened with him though. He really seemed like one of our top prospects but he had a lot of injuries. Hopefully he can contribute as a coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I place no emphasis on youth soccer results as they are not a good reflection of players individual pro potential and technical ability, especially at the younger ages, but I understand what you're getting at.
