Meet our Coaches - Coach Remy 07/2024

Borussia Coach Remy

Our Borussia Academy Singapore coaches are highly qualified and love to work with young players of all ages and abilities. Want to get to know them a little better? Introducing Borussia Academy football coach Remy!

Coach Remy has been coaching football since 2017 and has joined Borussia Academy in 2021. He is the heart of our Borussia Bambinis and girls teams - his passion and dedication inspire our young players every day and sessions are great fun.

Coach Remy what do you like best about working with our young players?

I enjoy seeing the players progress to the next level with the foundations that we lay at Borussia Academy.

What advice would you have for our young athletes?

My advice would be to A.C.E. it!

Adaptable, always be adaptable to different types of coaching methods.

Challenge, challenge your teammates in training but most importantly challenge yourself even if it’s a simple drill, ask yourself how can i be faster? Stronger? Consistently try to improve yourself!

Effort - The most difficult thing of all is putting in effort. Be early, pick up a ball and play or practice your juggling/shooting. You can be coached by the best coaches but if there’s no effort, there’s no progression!

Coach Remy what is your favourite Borussia moment to date?

There are many! I love seeing posts on social media of players that I’ve helped along the way.

If you could meet any player who would you like to meet?

I’d love to meet Cristiano Ronaldo - simply because he is the G.O.A.T.!

Thanks so much Coach Remy.

German Ambassador visits Borussia Academy

German Ambassador Dr. Norbert Riedel & Team paid a special visit to us and got to chat with our German Coaches and Players.

We spoke about our community outreach programs, our upcoming trip to Germany and while of course warmly embracing every nationality and culture, re-affirmed our ties to the German community in Singapore.

Our players also got to ask Dr. Riedel and GESS Principal Mr Pauli a few questions. Did you know that Mr Pauli is a supporter of infamous football club FC St. Pauli in Germany or that Dr. Riedel was fortunate enough to meet several players of the legendary German 1974 Worldcup team in person?

Both Dr. Riedel and Mr Pauli then joined our teams for a fast paced 5 v 5 football session and got to show off their excellent shooting skills during our penalty shoot out.

Thank you Dr. Riedel & Team and thank you Mr Pauli for being such great sports! Our players had a great time and we all agreed that team Germany will of course win the upcoming European Championship hosted by Germany this summer!

YOU are Borussia!

Meet our Coaches - Coach Michael

Our Borussia Academy Singapore coaches are highly qualified and love to work with young players of all ages and abilities. Want to get to know them a little better? Introducing Borussia Academy football coach Michael!

Hi Michael or should we say g’day mate? Care to share a few bio details with us?
Michael Crecca age 50 years from Sydney, Australia.

You’ve been with Borussia Academy for over 5 years now. Tell us what made you join Borussia and what drives your passion for football?
I've always had a passion for football from a very young age and started playing when I was around 5 years of age and I have been involved in the game in some form ever since. I joined Borussia because a friend of mine, Coach Guy who was working at Borussia recommended the academy and I was also really impressed by its football core values.

You’ve coached our B9 Div1 boys (now B10) to win the JSSL Championship last season. What do you think is important in working with players that age?
I think it's important for a coach to help the players first of all to enjoy their football especially at a young age and develop a passion for the game. My coaching style at times can seem quite animated but my goal is especially at matches to make the players feel comfortable,  not be afraid to make errors and just enjoy the experience. 

What’s your favourite Borussia moment to date?

Winning the B9 Div 1 title was a fantastic achievement for the boys on the back of our second place finish the previous season. It was so rewarding to see the boys be the champions of the highest division in their age category.

If you could meet any footballer who would you like to meet and why?

As an AC Milan fan one of my favourite players growing up was Marco Van Basten from Holland so I would have to say him for sure. He was a 3 time balon d'or winner and one of the best players in his generation.

Thanks so much Michael.

We are Borussia!
