Coach Manisha Tailor: Communicating With Clubs
Manisha Tailor addresses the challenges in youth football academies. She emphasises the need to redefine parental expectations due to the low probability of young players turning professional.
Manisha encourages ongoing communication between parents and clubs about a child’s progress, not just during formal reviews. However, she stresses the importance of maintaining boundaries and respecting club decisions. Manisha advocates for a balanced approach that keeps the academy experience enjoyable for children while managing realistic expectations about their football futures.
