Hi, I’m Carlos! A coach, sports enthusiast, and the founder of FCScout.com.
I fell in love with the game at a very young age like many of you. I’ve been following and playing soccer for many years.
Throughout my career, I always enjoyed helping soccer players chase their dreams, which is why I started this website. I wanted to reach a larger audience outside of my local area and fcscout.com was born.
This website is a platform I will be using to update club pages on any tryouts, stadiums, players, tech, and more from clubs around the world. I also create free recruitment profiles for players looking to have that extra competitive edge when reaching out to clubs.
That’s it. That’s my pitch for you to stick around (or browse the site as you please).
This is already too much text for a “see more” drop-down button thing. If you want to reach out to me, head on over to my contact page 🙂

Beerschot Youth Development System
Beerschot ACADEMY MISSION
The youth academy occupies a central place in the club’s operation and is regarded as an essential task. We want to be a high-quality football institute where talent is given the opportunity to develop optimally. By offering the players this possibility, we want to achieve a maximum flow to the 1st team.
We want to create a motivating, pedagogical and methodically responsible environment in which youth players can develop themselves on a sports-technical and human level and prepare for a career as a professional football player.
Beerschot sees youth football as an individual sport with a collective character . We want to maximize the potential that a player has. We also believe that everyone deserves a good time during this process. In order to reinforce this ambition and to optimize the individual development of the player, we also provide training for our trainers, team coaches.
Beerschot ACADEMY VISION
Beerschot youth guides and coaches young football players from 6 to 19 years old. We want to attract talented youth players from the region (city, the periphery and the province) and offer the ideal opportunities to develop their talent.
Beerschot youth wants to use their all-round football potential to generate excellent football players by offering a total development with ample attention to the technical training plan, football and study, ethical and educational values.
The technical training plan must be as complete as possible. It contains a planning for the tactical, physical, mental and technical development of the player.
The choice of trainers and supervisors and guidance must entail the necessary quality to achieve the above objectives.
The necessary logistical conditions must be created to be able to achieve these objectives.
