Lead the people.
Shape the game.
I’m Craig Large — a UEFA A Licence coach working across football leadership, player development and high performance. My work starts on the pitch and carries into the people, ideas and experiences that shape performance beyond it.
Built for football’s next challenge.
My ambition is to lead at first-team level. I bring a coach’s eye for the details of the game and a leader’s attention to the environment around the players.
Coaching, game model, training design and team performance.
Research, leadership, development and the experiences that make people more capable over time.
Three ways to know my work.

Football is central to my life, but it is not the whole story. Research, endurance and a curiosity about people all shape how I coach and how I lead.
