Meet Your VanU Technical Leads: Nick Perugini

Meet Your VanU Coaches

Next up is our Academy Manager, Nick Perugini! Nick has been with VanU for well over a decade and is now in his second season overseeing our Academy program.

"I believe our Academy provides a great resource for our players and coaches to develop. For players; they get a chance to work on their touches, and get a high volume of contact time on the ball in both our Mondays development academy and Friday night shooting and finishing academy sessions. During my time working with the academy, we have been able to work with younger coaches in our club, giving them the ability to work with some of our more senior staff. It has been a great tool to open up a pathway for our own alumni and current youth players to give back to the VanU community they themselves grew up playing in." - Nick Perugini

Although the Fall season is already well underway, our Winter Academy is just around the corner!

"The Fall Academy season has gotten off to a great start and we're excited to continue with the positive momentum the program has built up. Winter details will be ready soon and our spring programming will be our biggest yet with the World Cup just around the corner!"

Keep your eyes peeled for information regarding registration for our Winter Academy and don't miss out on joining this fun and exciting program!
