Relatório de Estágio Profissionalizante realizado no escalão Seniores A Masculinos do Futebol Clube Felgueiras - Futebol SAD, na época desportiva 2023/24

Abstract

This internship report is based on the description and reflection of my experiences throughout the 2023/2024 season at Futebol Clube Felgueiras - Futebol SAD, in the First men's team and was designed with the purpose of completing the Master's Degree in High Performance Training at the Faculty of Sports of the University of Porto. The opportunity to undertake an internship in such a highly competitive context, even though I had no experience at this level, allowed me to have daily interactions with several people with long ties to professional football, especially the technical team with whom I shared moments every day. First, I proceeded to do a description of my journey and what my expectations and goals were for this internship, also providing a practical contextualization of it, where I discussed the club, its resources, the competitive context in which is inserted, what were the tasks that I was responsible for and the tasks of the rest of the technical team. I then addressed the various goals defined for the season and made a description and characterization of the squad, the game model adopted and the standard microcycle. The report was concluded with a reflection process on everything that has been experienced throughout this sporting year and with my final considerations about it. This internship will forever remain with me because I experienced moments that I always dreamed of, such as being able to live my day-to-day life as a football professional, but also because in doing so I had the opportunity to absorb several lessons and establishing my own conclusions about them, thus helping me to become a better coach and better prepared for the future, both professionally and personally.
