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 🙂

Academy Philosophy
The philosophy of the Peterborough United Academy is to focus on a purposeful playing style of football in all moments of the game – in possession, out of possession and in moments of transition.
Peterborough United FC uses our key headlines of ‘Playing On The Front Foot’ and ‘Owning The Ball, Owning The Pitch’ to help summarise their playing approach across the academy:
This means that they look to recruit the players with the potential to meet the demands of their philosophy. Peterborough United FC’s coaching programme is designed to equip their players with the multi-disciplinary skills that allow their teams to control and influence the game when in or out of possession.
Peterborough United FC Academy values, behaviours and coaching methods underpin the development of young people and players. Peterborough United FC will recruit and develop players and staff with similar beliefs and work ethics to create an outstanding environment based on learning. Peterborough United FC aspires to play attack-minded, purposeful football, utilising the space on the pitch to play through, round or over opponents. Out of possession, their preference is to press from the front and play with organisation, discipline and a will to defend.
The implementation of their philosophy, the delivery of their programme in line with their mission statement and their progress towards their vision are reviewed and monitored by their Academy Management Team and the club’s Technical Board. Both groups consist of senior academy and club staff, including the owners, the first team manager, the academy manager and the director of football.
