The launch ceremony that was held at Premier Pitch at Turf City, was graced by the presence of Mr Adrian New, Managing Director Asia Pacific, Chelsea Football Club who was accompanied by Mr Ian Woodroffe who serves as the Blues' International Development Manager.
“We are extremely pleased to launch the Chelsea FC Soccer School Singapore. It is the club’s mission to help the development of Asia football and the Chelsea FC Soccer Schools is our first step towards achieving that goal.” said Mr New in the media release that was made known after the event.
He added:“We are also honoured to have coaches from our Chelsea FC Foundation here in Singapore to show the students the Chelsea way and we can expect more of such cooperation between Chelsea FC Foundation and the schools. This is a clear demonstration of the club’s philosophy of ‘Here to Play, Here to Stay’,”
According to the same release, the school will be oversee by Mr Muhammad Faizal Bin Saaudi, the General Manager of CFCSS SG alongside with six local coaches whom have qualified for the positions after being evaluated by the Chelsea FC Foundation earlier this year.
“I am proud to be a part of Chelsea FC Soccer Singapore. Their professionalism and approach to teaching the next generation is exceptional and students at the School can be assured that what they learn here in Singapore is no different from what is taught in England.” said Mr Faizal who shares his thoughts on being tasked to run the new operations and giving some insights of what to be expected.
