When a single high school athlete began practicing in a nearby park, the Shanghai Wolves football program was established in the center of Shanghai, China. The originator of the program saw the potential for regular and organized player development and set out to form a team that would offer a distinctive method of coaching.
Today over 120 student-athletes participate in the Shanghai Wolves football program, which also has some of China's top coaches. As evidence of the effectiveness of the program's coaching techniques and player-development philosophy, the original student-athletes who contributed to its founding are currently among the best players in the nation and the current CNL National Champions for 2023.
