USER EXPERIENCES

VLADIMIR SIMIĆ

First of all, I'd like to commend the idea and the initiative of the Adria Football Institute (AFI) with the aim of creating and employing football analysts. A high level of professionalism is reflected in great expertise, a systemic approach to work, and maximum commitment of the lecturers to each and every candidate. Besides the knowledge and experience you will gain from the Adria Football Institute lecturers, in time, you'll gain contacts with colleagues that work in other teams and football associations. You will leave completely capable of working with the latest practice and game analysis software, and you will hear the opinions and experiences of the directors of all the Adria Football Institute partner companies. In the end, I wish for every candidate to enjoy the lectures that await them.

I'm grateful because I don't think that there's enough quality education in the field of football analytics in our region. Earlier, I had the chance to attend a course abroad and I can confirm that ”Adria Football Institute” has given me more. An excellent program, IT education, and great lecturers have enabled me to better understand football, and, by extension, to more effectively watch, analyse, and scout individuals, groups, and the entire match. I'd recommend it to everyone who wants to develop as a coach or as an analyst, because you'll gain valuable tools that will surely enrich them and open further perspectives.

The AFI advanced analyst course was a huge experience for me. All the lecturers were extremely knowledgeable, approachable, and every single one of them has, in their own way, transferred a huge amount of knowledge from their extensive experience. Personally, I can say that this course has widened my view of football. I have met many colleagues from the Balkan countries with which we have, including lecturers, always constructively debated the topics of the course in advance, and that's certainly added value. Besides theoretical, we have also gained a lot of practical knowledge through workshops where we have used various software and the lecturers were always giving us extremely constructive feedback.

The concept of the institute was designed very well and the experience of the lecturers was invaluable to the participants. From building upon existing knowledge, to developing completely new skills and using various useful software, the content is brought to an understandable level for every participant. I especially loved the ability to use the software after the end of the course, as well as the one-on-one mentorship meetings where I got answers to absolutely all of my questions. The quality of the course is unquestionable and I highly recommend AFI to anyone who wants to work as a football analyst!
