Nebraska Futbol Club announces its coaching staff for the 2005-2006 seasonal year. 

 

"Our coaching staff features one former professional player, two current college coaches, two former Coaches of the Year, nine former college players, six coaches certified in NFC's Magic Moves program, and over 100 years of combined coaching experience," said Bob Amdor, NFC's Executive Director. 

 

"We're using the mentor coaching concept again this year to assure that all of our players benefit, and to develop our staff.  We consider our coaches to be teachers, motivators and role models for NFC players, so we have sought coaches that will make the NFC playing experience great.  NFC grew from nine to 21 teams last year, and we expect substantial growth again this year.  We encourage parents to compare the mission statements and goals for clubs, because NFC is committed to providing a great experience for committed, premier-level players.  We strive to provide the best coaching and programs to players that dream of playing collegiate soccer."
