women’s football
lead the way
Powered by a female-centric, whole systems approach to long term athletic development, Casagrande Coaching takes your game to the next level. As a coach educator working from grassroots to International teams, I specialise in leadership training, women's health and practical workshops with coaches and athletes.
Critical thinking, hands-on problem solving and a healthy dose of experimentation are at the core of my practice. Because the best learning embraces trial and error, and there’s always fun to be had in the adventure! We are building a more flexible, resilient and sustainable football ecosystem, for everyone's benefit - from early career and more seasoned coaches to players of all genders. Because learnings in the women's game are radically evolving high performance coaching and why wouldn't we want to share the insights?
learning unlimited
I live, eat and breathe women's football. As a former professional football player in Brazil, three-time performance coach for national teams (US Youth, Brazil and Ireland Women’s) and a women’s health and technical expert for FIFA and UEFA, the game is always with me However, I have learnt that silos can create vacuums that limit opportunities for new learning.
So I look beyond the pitch, into other industries and practices, always looking for new and emerging approaches that could help evolve how we understand the needs of the next gen, shaping how we play, coach and manage. Learn, share, grow is my mantra.

There’s an uncomfortable truth that can’t be ignored: the growing disconnect between the way the football industry has run for years, and the needs of today and tomorrow’s players, coaches, administrators and stakeholders. All too often, it's easier to default to business as usual than explore new territories for a new world. This is not unique to football, it's the thorn in the side of change. Until now.
We are challenging the status quo to build a better tomorrow. I’m here to educate and empower the next generation of coaches and leaders who know there’s a better way forward but don’t know where to start or how to upskill. Using forward-thinking strategies, techniques and hands-on experiences, I enable next gen leaders to break out of autopilot and move up a gear.

Women's football has an extraordinary power
Football is not just a sport, it's a language lived and breathed by people from all walks of life, all over the world. At its heart, football invites everyone to play, to push boundaries, to work together. It's a commitment to the relentless pursuit of asking better questions to find better solutions.
It's about the possibilities of people who are hungry to learn and the extraordinary things that can happen when people work together with a shared purpose.
The women’s game, long suppressed, is now breaking through, transforming culture and rewriting our understanding of high performance. Casagrande Coaching is proud to support this movement.
