Dutch professional football manager and his girlfriend Sophia Makramati

Get experience playing football to learn the game. It’s exceptionally difficult to find even a volunteer coaching position without getting experience as a player. Even if you didn’t play in high school or college, you can still sign up for a semi-competitive league at your local park district or field house. There are very few professional coaches that have never played the game, so get some experience to learn the game from a player’s point of view.
