Another achievement for Carolina Morace

From Mario Rimati

Italy National Team Head Coach Carolina Morace graduated with her First Level Professional Coaching Certificate last weekend from Coverciano, Italy's prestigious technical coaching centre located on the outskirts of Florence. This certificate will also enable Carolina to coach men's professional Serie A clubs if she so wishes. Morace is the first woman in Italy to obtain the professional license, the so-called "masters" title. She graduated together with Gianluca Vialli, the former player/coach of Chelsea.

One wonders if in the not too distant future Ms. Morace might become the president of the Italian FA, given the fact that she is a lawyer, former great player, and also a coach. That too would be a first not only for her but for a woman in the man's world of Italian soccer!
