This week on the MSC Breakdown we have teamed up Veo as they launch the outstanding new Veo Cam 3. We were joined by Santiago Castillo, U13 and U14 academy coach at Lou City FC, who kindly shared his session plan on 'Exploiting space behind' and has recorded the session on the Veo Cam 3. . In the breakdown, Santiago discusses session design, aligning playing philosophy with exercises, coaching in flow, and the power of video review for both players and coaches.
We are excited to team up with Veo for this video and highly recommend coaches take a look at the new Veo Cam 3. Below are some of the exciting new features:
Improved control range for seamless experience - faster and more stable uploads
Rugged design for endurance - new soft touch material guards against impact and scratches - functionality between -10C and +44C and in all weather conditions (yours is not waterproof!)
5G ready for future-proofed technology - redesigned antenna optimize long range 5G signals
Wind noise reduction in the recordings - achieved with a more aerodynamic shell.
Sharper video quality - introducing HDR (High Dynamic Range) vibrant, true-to-life colors.
Player Spotlight - Launches in July to support player and tactical analysis plus data insights
