How to write a football CV (resume)
It is very important to have a well written Football CV.
Here are some hints and tips to help you to write a football CV that will grab the attention of any coach, sports manager or scout who may see it.
When writing your CV try to consider the following points and details which your CV should have:-
Your Details
Of course as with any CV it is important to list your personal details, try to keep your information as clear and concise as possible.
Name & Date of Birth
Address and Nationality
The next thing that you must state is your nationality and country of residence. The national football associations of many countries limit the number of foreign players allowed to play in a team. However, by stating your nationality and residence you allow coaches and scouts from teams local to you to contact you.
Contact details – telephone number / email address
Physical Information
It is necessary to state personal physical information eg. height, weight, are you right or left-footed? Etc. This is done so that club representatives can accurately select candidates for the position they have available in their team. If you can play equally well with both feet, then say so. This radically improves your chances of being selected as you are a far more flexible player as a result.
Your Football Career
Which team do you play for now?
This is an important part of your CV as it will be one of the main things an employer will look at. Also, if you can play in different positions, then this is a very big advantage so list them. Your abilities to play in different positions means you are a universal player, which improves your chances of success. However, naming every single position on the pitch is probably not a good idea!
Your football career so far
Employers will like to see your career history as a football player to understand the scope of your experience, of the level of the clubs who you have played for. Also, if possible, include match statistics obtained during these games (eg. the number of the matches played, the score, if you scored etc).
Sporting Achievements
Is there anything special you have achieved in your footballing career? Competitions, leagues or tournaments won? Your CV is exactly the right place to put it!
Which languages can you speak?
State your native language and if you speak other languages, especially English, then say this on your cv stating your level at the language and any examinations that you have passed. Good communication amongst the squad and with coaches and staff is essential. A club will certainly prefer to have players with good English language skills!
About You
A good way to end a CV is with some information about you as a person, your professional qualities, your strengths and weaknesses.
If you wish to attach a video with your CV we would advise that it be of you playing as part of a team in active match play rather than of you alone performing ball tricks.
Finally!
Always be honest when writing your CV. Try to be clear and not give too much unnecessary information, but include any information you think might be important to help you be identified as somebody a coach would love to have on his team!
