And as they reached success, the group of Teen Azkals team manager Alvin Carranza is now scouting more qualified young football players in the country. As part of their mission to identify talents and putting them together in a program then exposing the young players internationally.

Coach Aris Caslib said they will be needing 25 finalists for the national team in the category of under 18-years old, who are soon to be developed as part of Team Azkals.

To join, simply submit a video of the player who’s in act of playing the match for the scout team to easily identify the potential.

On July 7 and 8, the National Capital Region Selection will be held in International School Manila, University Parkway, Fort Bonifacio in Taguid City.

For parents and guardians who understandably will have some fears for their kids, Caslib said that the education of those players will not be compromised by the trainings.

Sustaining the surge

Caslib emphasized the need to sustain the surge of football in the Philippines. This would mean sowing effective training from the grassroots level.

Moreover, the continuing education for the coaches must be consider to produce quality players thus can give more honor to the country.
