Sporting KC Academy coaches to kick off 14-month educational program in France

Sporting Kansas City Academy coaches Kelly Findley and Declan Jogi have begun a 14-month coaching development course alongside the French Football Federation (FFF), which will culminate with both coaches receiving their Elite Formation Coaching License (EFCL).

Major League Soccer today announced the third iteration of its partnership with the FFF that provides MLS youth academy coaches with world-class training through an in-depth course that results in graduates receiving the esteemed EFCL. Findley is an academy staff coach who works with all of Sporting KC’s youth sides, while Jogi is head coach of the Sporting KC U-13s.

The partnership was created in 2013 and has already produced more than 40 coaching graduates through the program.
