Rangers recently hosted an exclusive webinar covering a host of topics – including game model, methodology, player care, scouting and recruitment – and Suhel Nair, Technical Head of Grassroots for the Gers’ partner club Bengaluru FC has called the chance to “see and understand” how Rangers operate behind the scenes “extremely inspiring.”

The five-day webinar, attended by Rangers manager Steven Gerrard, sporting director Ross Wilson, Head of Academy Craig Mulholland, coach Michael Beale and assistant manager Gary McAllister, was very well received as the Gers look to share their expertise with their partners around the world.

Nair thiks it was a fantastic experience hearing first-hand how the Gers have been “transformed” over the last three years, with the role of every department playing into the overall success of the Ibrox giants.

“This was one of the most insightful webinars I have attended and was very informative for all our Youth Coaches. To understand how the club has transformed its structure over the past three years was brilliant,” said Nair, speaking to Bengaluru’s official website.

“We saw from the sidelines what Rangers achieved, but to see and understand how every department pulled its weight in celebrating that success was extremely inspiring. Every cog is important in the overall success of the club, right from the academy to the first team, and to understand that was an incredible experience.”

Rangers quickly expanding their global reach with strategic partnerships

Rangers have started a number of new partnerships in recent years, including Bengaluru, American side Orange County SC and German’s HSV.

In addition to those, there have also been several partners added through the club’s Rangers International Soccer Academy programme.

This should see the Light Blues benefit for years to come as the Rangers coaches continue to improve while having the chance to recruit the best youngsters from abroad.
