The Bulldogs are committed to increasing female participation in football at Capalaba FC. With this goal in mind, we are absolutely thrilled to announce the appointment of Marco Prospero as our Director of Female Football. Marco will be driving female participation at the Doggies, and ensuring that all of our female players and coaches are represented, developed and supported - whether it be through improved player welfare or working with businesses to deliver better player facilities.
Marco holds a AFC B Licence, and has coached all ages from SAP to Academy at both Bayside United and Wynnum Wolves. The word on the street is that Marco is a Maradona and Torino tragic, having played a little football In Italy many years ago, before returning to play with the Central Coast.
Most recently, he moved into the female coaching ranks, coaching the FQPL3 women's first team at Wynnum. Marco loves the game, in particular tiki taka and catenaccio. As an ex player himself, he enjoys helping players learn, improve and importantly, enjoy football by having what he likes to call 'serious fun'.
He says, "๐ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ต๐ถ๐ณ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ข๐ถ๐ต๐ช๐ง๐ถ๐ญ ๐จ๐ข๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐บ ๐ข๐ค๐ค๐ช๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฏ ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ฌ๐ช๐ฅ๐ด ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐จ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ข๐บ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ, ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ง๐ช๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฎ๐บ๐ด๐ฆ๐ญ๐ง ๐ค๐ฐ๐ข๐ค๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ฃ๐บ ๐ข๐ค๐ค๐ช๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต ๐ต๐ฐ๐ฐ".
We have no doubt that female football at the Bulldogs is absolutely going to thrive under Marco's watch, and we can't wait to see what the new season brings. Welcome to the Bulldogs, Marco!
