About Me

My name is Fabio Gouveia

I am originally from Recife, Brazil, where I played semi-professional football until the age of 23. After moving to Australia, I played for a club in Sydney before shifting my focus to coaching due to injuries. Football is my passion, and I aim to bring the energy and culture of the sport to the kids I coach.

I hold a degree in Business Administration from Brazil and have completed a Certificate III in Fitness and a Futsal Coaching License through Football Australia. Currently, I am pursuing a Sports Management degree at the University of Notre Dame and will begin my Football Coaching C License in October 2024.

With over two years of experience coaching kids, I have run a variety of sessions, from competitive and private training to fun, engaging group activities. My coaching philosophy centers around creating an enjoyable and positive environment for both players and coaches. I am dedicated to fostering a love for the game in young athletes and helping them develop both on and off the field.
