ANNOUNCEMENT - Nomads United AFC are very excited to welcome International Licenced Brazilian Coach, Fernando Lambert to the Club as their Technical Director from October this year.
Fernando’s position will see him continue to increase the quality of our Talent Centre Program and further develop our community pathway for all members.
Having held positions with acclaimed clubs like Corinthians, Gremio, Sao Paulo (in Brazil), WSW, Sydney FC (in Australia) and SoCal in USA, Nomads United AFC could not be happier to have Fernando as part of their team and are really looking forward to having him share his skills and love of football with our members.
Lambert earned his football qualifications in Brazil, Australia, the United States and has recently done his T1 TOVO Barcelona Certificate. He is also a Cognitive Football Instructor. Prior to coming to Nomads he has been involved with another Club in Christchurch developing football plans and training curriculums as a Head Coach and delivering Academy programs.
“I am looking forward to working in one of the biggest clubs in the South Island, and together with their amazing coaching staff and committee are looking forward to great things”, said Fernando. “The club’s philosophy of ‘quality and affordable football for all’ really matches what I believe about football. In Brazil, the best players cannot afford to pay to train and play and it’s is a huge loss to the sport. In New Zealand we need to be developing talents that will help to increase the level of football in New Zealand”.
“I would like to thank Nomads United AFC for all their support and I am looking forward to preparing for the 2019 season and hope to provide the best coaching possible on and off the field”. – Fernando Lambert
