CÉSAR FARÍAS

I have been an athlete my entire life and 30 years ago I decided to become a leader in my favorite sport, soccer. My role as a coach helped me develop a wide and executive vision for sports management.

MARCO LOBO

Chief Athletic Officer (CAO)

I have dedicated my career to soccer and, more recently, to sports management. I believe that we can use sport as a tool to improve the lives of children and young people around the world, with an emphasis on the development of communities and countries. To reach the needs, logistic and economic plans must be designed to adapt to the particular cultural and socioeconomic realities of those communities. Taking into account this challenge, my goal is to strengthen my knowledge in sports management.

ARTURO PERTEGAZ

Chief Operating Officer (COO)

Swimming and soccer have been important part of my life since I was a child. My admiration for the influence of sports on people's lives led me to pursue a career in sports marketing. For more than 10 years I have worked with recognized international brands, offering marketing services to different sports clubs, institutions and organizations. My experience has taught me that in order to reach our full professional potential, a balance must be found between physical and mental strength. I think that only sport can help us achieve that balance.
