Hi all I’m Alfie
I am an experienced football and sports coach currently working on the Island, while also currently working towards completion of the UEFA B football coaching qualification.
I pride myself in offering high quality, developmental, fun and engaging sports sessions, especially for young people. This has led me to delivering sessions across many countries, allowing me to witness many different cultures and ways of working in sport.
I myself witnessed the positive impact sports can have on young people. When I was a child I moved from Spain to London, and then eventually to the island. Sports was always my way of fitting in, thriving in new surroundings, developing my confidence and making new friends. This ignited a real passion within to develop all young individuals as athletes and people.
Hope to see you all soon at one of our sports sessions.
For me "UCanPlay" is the culmination of a lifetime's passion of sport and being outdoors. Whilst I love playing, organising everything that is required to enable others to take part gives me even greater satisfaction. I have done this throughout my life as a volunteer, coach, teacher and parent and UCanPlay is giving me the opportunity support a whole new set of people.
I am a great believer that there is a sport or outdoor activity for everyone - one sport definitely doesn't fit all. At UCanPlay we strive to find opportunities for everyone to find an activity that they love, and help utilise this to develop all the additional benefits this will bring - greater confidence, self-esteem, teamworking and leadership skills, and a whole new set of friends.
