FREESTYLE CHAMPION AT PRO-SOCCER

Pro-Soccer celebrated the 1st year anniversary of running Glasgow’s Brazilian Soccer School with the visit of John Farnworth, the World Freestyle Football Champion.  He won the title in December at the PEPSI stage in Amsterdam. Competing in the competition were 19 Freestylers from 11 different countries around the world, including M Woo, Emil, Fx and Timo, each hand-picked for their renowned skills.

John shows his talents at Pro-Soccer Glasgow

Speaking after the event John said “I am so pleased to be World Champion! I was first introduced to the idea of juggling a football by my local Brazilian Soccer School and it has taken a lot of hard work and practice from then to get here today.”

John with Coaches Craig, Andrew, Scott and Gary

John is a graduate from the Brazilian Soccer Schools. The Brazilian Soccer Schools work very closely on a player's touch, technique and speed by using a specially designed ball taken from the Brazilian game of Futebol de Salão. The Futebol de Salão football is a weighted size 2 ball with just 10% rebound which helps to improve a player’s touch on the ball as well as encourage passing on the floor during game play.

On Wednesday 18th April, John displayed his unbelievable skills at the Pro-Soccer 5-a-side complex whilst assisting those currently involved with the Brazilian Schools set up in Glasgow with their ball control and demonstrating moves and tricks from the internationally renowned Brazilian Soccer Schools syllabus.  To find out more about the

training method please contact Pro-Soccer on 0141 621 4459.
