Patrick Frederiksen , Malik Mikaelsen, Rass Abelsen, Mikki Brønlund, John Pedersen and Alex Hermansen – six of Greenland's most dedicated futsal instructors – were in last weekend at the school desk in Nuuk. They completed the B1 course, which is first part of a new and ambitious two-stage course that will raise the level of coaching courses in Greenland.
The course is part of KAK's investment in strengthening both the sporting and educational fields quality in the country's futsal clubs. The six directors play a central role role in the development of futsal coaches and future talents in Greenland.
I 2025, KAK has already held courses in nine cities, and the demand for further education has grown significantly. The goal is for all club coaches to have access to relevant coaching training, adapted to their daily reality on the track.
- The interest is greater than ever before, and our instructors are making a difference huge responsibility. They help shape the coaches of the future and thus the future futsal, says KAK.
The instructors function not only as teachers, but also as mentors, cultural mediators and role models. Their mission is to inspire, create safe training environments and motivate trainers at all levels, while providing concrete tools for both training and fighting.
KAK's investment in coach training and the building of a strong team of instructors full support from the association's board. This is seen as a strategic investment that is crucial for the long-term development of Greenlandic sports.
Like part of this development, KAK sees a potential for futsal to become in the long term part of the primary school's physical education. The association is ready to continue the dialogue with municipalities and educational institutions about this, if there is any political and administrative support.
Before the end of the year, KAK will launch two more instructor courses, which will ensure a even stronger corps of instructors and expand the skills of the growing network by futsal instructors.
