Yusuf Baker

I am an energetic and enthusiastic University student. I also have good communication skills. I am excited to work in any field, to increase my experience in the sporting world as my ambition is to have a career in football analysing, then transfer those skills to football coaching, since my full ambition is to be a football manager in the near future.

Recently completed BA (Hons) Sports Development and Coaching foundation stage and will be going onto the first year in September. Currently volunteering with Burnley College Football Academy, by supporting players individually with feedback, filming matches, and training sessions, and providing post-match analysis to players after match days. Also gaining coaching experience by joining in with players in sessions or watching them and listening to the coach.

Have had six months of Football Coaching experience (volunteering) in a school in Saudi Arabia, I have assisted 600+ students to improve their speaking in English and playing the game with a better understanding of the rules, and helped them improve their skills with football training.
