Background and How Future Coders Club came was established
I’m Yasmin Veronica, Co-Founder of Future Coders Club. We provide expert coding education, focused on upskilling people looking for new career paths particularly where programming and data analysis skills are required. We started to see a clear gap in the football industry where core programming skills, particularly Python, were becoming more and more essential. We couldn’t see anything that offered beginners an accessible coding course tailored to the football industry, and so the Football Analyst Foundation Course was born.
Future Coders Club partnered with Lucy Rowland, Director of Analytics at San Jose Earthquakes in the MLS, who co-designed the course to ensure it provided the core foundational Python skills required in the football analysis industry.
Due to growing demand, we’ve pivoted to focus exclusively on football and have welcomed football professionals into our team, alongside our football-passionate programming experts, to guarantee the perfect blend of expertise within our core team. This reflects our commitment to excellence in delivering football-specific programming education.
Challenges that Future Coders Club solve
Future Coders Club is here to solve the problem of non-specific or irrelevant, often boring coding education. We aim to make coding accessible and football-focused.
A Head of Data Analytics for a team in the Championship said to me, “I’ve been sending my analytics staff on generic coding courses and all the examples they learn are so far removed from football, that we’re scratching our heads trying to relate it back. Future Coders Club is the first thing I’ve seen that I can actually send my performance analysts on and know that it is going to be entirely relevant to their day jobs in football and immediately applicable”
Something that we’re really excited about is our offer for students to present their portfolio to a panel of football industry experts, including professionals from the MLS and Statsbomb. We understand how important it is to gain real-world feedback, and we’re so glad to be able to offer this from some of the industry’s best! We often have guest lectures, where our students get the opportunity to hear from football data analysts, Club data scientists and Heads of Analytics. These are some of my favourite sessions throughout the course, no lecture is ever the same, and there are always great Q&As!
Success Stories
One of my favourite success stories is a professional coach of over 20 years, most notably as Assistant Coach for the Jamaican Football Federation. He joined our Football Analyst Foundation Course because he wanted to understand Python enough to have better oversight and management of the analysts in his team. He told me “I knew I didn’t want to learn generic data analysis, and so your Football Analyst Foundation Course has been a game changer for me! It’s incredible to be taught Python from a practical football point of view that applies directly to my role as a Football Coach. I’m comfortable reading a game very well. I can articulate moments of the game, I can watch video and pick things up very quickly with my coaching background, however merging that knowledge with the data was a major gap in my skill set.”
His journey from the field to speaking the basic language of data as a seasoned coach highlights the unique impact our course is designed to deliver. It’s not just about learning to code; it’s about enriching his coaching prowess with data insights.
An example of the official testimonial from Assistant Coach / Performance Analyst Jamaican Football Federation, Sanford Carabin
“Joining the Football Analyst Foundation Course has been a truly great experience for me. As an experienced coach and analyst but new to the coding side of the game, the course offered just the right mix of theory and practical insights to significantly deepen my understanding of coding with Python. The lectures were engaging and informative, filled with real-life examples that illustrated complex concepts in a digestible manner.
One of the highlights for me was connecting with fellow students from around the world, each bringing their unique perspectives to discussions, has enriched my learning experience. It’s inspiring to be part of a community that’s as passionate about football analysis as I am.
To anyone considering this course, I can’t recommend it highly enough. Whether you’re looking to build a foundation in football analysis for professional reasons or simply to enhance your enjoyment of the game, this course offers invaluable insights and a supportive learning environment. Thank you to the instructors and my fellow students for making this such a rewarding experience!”
