Raman's impact on our boys has been nothing short of sensational. His emphasis on fitness and discipline as the foundation for skill development and tactical awareness has truly transformed them, making them better players both individually and as a team. This has led to a string of successes on the pitch and a real boost in their confidence. I would recommend Raman without hesitation.
- Mr S Bulla, (Parent)
Raman joined our football team’s coaching staff, adding to a dedicated staff. Since joining I have seen a great improvement in my son’s fitness levels, skills and discipline. Raman hones in on individual strengths and opportunity areas, and works with my son to better his game. Raman is also strongly focused on fitness and stamina levels. This has helped my son be one of those players who just does not quit - using his core strength, and running box to box for the full game. Thoroughly recommend Raman and his coaching abilities!
- Nav, (Parent)
We've been delighted with Yaqub's progress this season, within a short space of time Raman has transformed Yaqub from a striker who would be mainly reliant on his pace and strength to score goals into an all-round midfielder. He now understands the game far better, in addition to his goals and assists this season he is beginning to show insight and steel with his defensive duties and game management. We look forward to Raman working with Yaqub and his team mates to achieve silverware this season.

Raman is a great coach with high standards and a good measure of drive and discipline. He cares not only about how the kids play on the pitch but also how they conduct themselves off it, respecting one another as a core value. He complements training sessions with fitness work and has fostered a real camaraderie within our team.
- Nicolas, (Parent)
Ethan has had a very positive outcome since he has been coached and guided by Raman. Personally, I see him being more assertive as well as being a better footballer, his decision making and space awareness has changed for the better.
His first touch and control under opposition pressure has been transformed in under 2 years, and the fitness drills have boosted his match day endurance.

My son has been coached by Raman for some time now, he has progressed in all aspects of his playing and attitude. Raman instils discipline, commitment and team support which will stand him in good stead for the future. Raman makes playing football inclusive for all as long as the player comes with the right attitude. We consider Raman to be a positive roll model in our son’s life which is hugely important as he very much respects him. I would highly recommend training with Raman.
- Anna, (Parent)
Raman is a fantastic person and coach. From the very first session, it was clear that he isn’t just teaching football skills, he’s building confidence, teamwork, and discipline in the players. He draws on his own playing experience and football philosophy and communicates it in a way that the players understand. Raman has built an incredible team spirit, and as a parent, it’s clear how much the players respect him and genuinely enjoy training and playing in his team. Our son has grown in confidence through Raman’s coaching. He has improved technically and in his understanding of the game, making better runs, using his weaker foot more effectively, and applying the right finishes in front of goal. As a result, he is now scoring more goals in matches. Raman is a great role model and encourages his players to adopt the same positive mindset and attitude that he brings to the game. Under his guidance, our son is also the fittest he has ever been. Overall, we are extremely grateful to have Raman as our coach and cannot recommend him highly enough.
- Humair, (Parent)
I can’t speak highly enough of Coach Raman and the impact he has had on my son. From the very first session, it was clear that he isn’t just a coach - he’s a mentor, a supporter, and someone who truly sees each child for who they are. As a parent of a child with additional physical needs, finding the right coach can feel daunting. But Coach Raman has gone above and beyond in every way. He brings patience, encouragement, and genuine care to every practice, always taking the time to ensure my son feels included, confident, and proud of what he achieves - no matter how small the step. What stands out most is how he celebrates effort as much as accomplishment. Whether it’s cheering the loudest for a new skill learned, offering a reassuring word on a tougher day, or tailoring drills so my son can participate fully, his support has made all the difference. The confidence my son has gained through football with him is simply priceless.
We feel incredibly lucky to be part of this team, and I wholeheartedly recommend Coach Raman to any family looking for a coach who truly cares — not just about the game, but about every player’s wellbeing and growth.
