      Coaching kids and teenagers from age of 5-17 and strengthening my assets in management and leadership. Preparing practices ahead of time, teaching professionalism on and off the field.. I was participating regularly in the work with 2 teams of U-10 boys and U-12 girls’ team. I am also included in the work of youth academy which is part of Blaze`s program but it is made for U-8 kids and they don`t participate in official games. Goalkeepeing coach for kids of all ages. Coaching kids doesn`t only build every single child into a better player, athlete and person, but it also builds me as a coach and as a manager. This community service helped me realize how to handle a group, establish myself as a leader and manage the skills of individuals in the group. Show less
