ON THE SHOW THIS WEEK



This week on the show we will be playing a prerecorded interview with Greig Robinson who we caught up with this week.
Greig Robertson will lead the 4 coaches leading the education programme for Celtic in Australia. Greig is the International Academy Development Officer and Youth Academy Coach for Celtic and is working extensively in Asia currently.

Greig has worked at Celtic since 2003 and so has been a key architect of Celtics programme of youth development and talent ID and management. In his time at Celtic he has worked throughout the club all of which have informed his current role as the International Academy Development Officer and Youth Academy Coach.

In this role Greig is tasked with developing strong working relationship with clubs and associations globally focusing on key elements such as coach education, player development, talent id, tournament / tours and parent education. Given the growth and potential of the Asian Football Confederation Greig has spent considerable time working throughout Asia from the Middle East to India and now Australia developing and assessing the skills of coaches throughout the region.

In his role with Celtic he works with junior elite squads focusing on technique, game / spatial awareness and tactical aspects of the game.

We are delighted to have had this opportunity and would like to thank George Lazarou for this opportunity.

AESFA is proud to announce a partnership with the world-renowned football club Celtic F.C. This partnership will see Celtic commencing a programme of education in 2011 with their Head of Youth Development – Greig Robertson – hosting a coaching seminar in Sydney on Sunday 29th May.

Greig has recently been working on behalf of Celtic throughout Asia advising and educating in all areas of Talent ID and Youth Development. It is for this reason that AESFA believes Greig through his role at Celtic and his education of coaches in Asia can offer Australian coaches a unique perspective on coaching talent through the Asian pathways founded in his knowledge of working with elite talent in Asia.
