Former Philippines captain Rob Gier named Philippine Menโs Under-22 head coach
The Philippine Football Federation is pleased to announce that former Philippine Menโs National Team captain Robert James Gier has been appointed as the head coach of the Philippine Menโs Under-22 National Team for the 32nd Southeast Asian Games this May in Cambodia.
An accomplished defender during his playing days, Gier had a storied career with the Azkals. He made his debut in 2009 and went on to represent the country in 66 international appearances. He was also part of the team that finished as runners up in the AFC Challenge Cup 2014 and was an influential figure in the Philippinesโ three straight semi-final stints in the AFF Suzuki Cup in 2010, 2012, and 2014, before hanging his boots in early 2016 to begin his coaching career.
A UEFA A coaching license holder, and Pro diploma license candidate, Gier had coaching experiences in England, first as head coach of Oxford University womenโs football team and as the Womenโs Academy Manager of Reading FC.
โI feel extremely proud and honored to be given the opportunity to represent the country again,โ said Gier. โBeing involved in a coaching capacity for the National Team has been an ambition of mine ever since I retired from playing so to be given the responsibility of overseeing the SEA Games campaign is something that I am really looking forward to. Itโs good to be back.โ
PFF president Mariano Araneta and general secretary Atty. Edwin Gastanes expressed their confidence in Gierโs ability to lead and mentor the team in the SEA Games.
โWe are delighted that former Menโs National Team player Rob Gier has accepted the role to be the head coach of the Philippine Under-22 National Team for the upcoming SEA Games,โ said Araneta. โHaving a former national player in Gier to lead our team is a much needed boost as we seek to qualify for the knockout stage of the SEA Games for the first time since 1991.โ
โWe welcome back Rob Gier to the national team setup, this time as a coach who will lead our Menโs U22 side in the SEA Games,โ added Gastanes. โWe look forward to what he can impart to the players as the Under-22 team prepares for the SEA Games.โ
Gier is tasked to form and train the best possible squad for the upcoming SEA Games from the current data of eligible Under-22 players, and consider inputs from the PFF Technical Department as well as from the coaching staff and team management of the most recent Under-22 team.
โThe talent and potential in this age group is something that we should all be excited about and I am looking forward to helping the players develop into future senior National Team players,โ added Gier. โI hope my experiences both on the pitch and, more recently, in a coaching capacity can impact the players and the team in a positive way.โ
The Philippine Menโs Under-22 National Team will begin their preparations for the SEA Games upon Gierโs arrival to the Philippines early April 2023.
