We are thrilled to announce the arrival of two esteemed coaches, Paulo Filipe and Ricardo Fernandes from SL Benfica. Their addition to our junior coaching staff represents a significant step forward for our talent development pathway.

Paulo Filipe brings a wealth of experience and expertise to our team. His coaching journey, deeply rooted in Portuguese football, includes significant roles at various levels within SL Benfica's youth development system. With a keen eye for talent and a proven track record of nurturing young players into top-tier professionals, Paulo Filipe's arrival promises to strengthen our commitment to player development.

Joining Paulo Filipe is Ricardo Fernandes, another highly regarded figure in the world of football coaching. His tactical acumen and strategic thinking have earned him recognition not only in Portugal but also on the international stage. Ricardo's extensive knowledge of the game will undoubtedly enhance our club and provide fresh insights into player development.

We are excited about the collaborative efforts of Paulo and Ricardo as they join our coaching staff. Their presence signifies our dedication to continuous improvement and our ambition to achieve great success in the seasons ahead and represents a huge investment in the junior members of our football club.

We extend a warm welcome to both coaches and look forward to a prosperous partnership. Together, we aim to reach new heights.

After a period of acclimation and settling into our community, we are excited to announce that there will be a special gathering for all our junior coaches, teams, and parents. This event will provide an excellent opportunity for everyone to come together and warmly welcome Paulo Filipe and Ricardo Fernandes into the Eastwood CFC family.

We understand the importance of fostering a sense of unity and belonging within our club, and introducing our new coaches to the extended Eastwood CFC community is an essential step in this process. It will be a chance to learn more about their coaching philosophies, their vision for the development of our young athletes, and to get to know them on a personal level.

We encourage all junior coaches, players, and parents to attend this event as we look forward to building strong connections and working together towards our shared goals.
