The report explores the role of Team Manager in youth sector of football in Portugal, highlighting the differences in the men's and women's departments. The study aims to understand the responsibilities, challenges and skills necessary for the effective performance of this crucial function in the development of athletes. It was also sought to evaluate the impact of Team Manager on the development of athletes and the general functioning of teams and the organization. The main objective of the report is to portray all the experiences lived throughout the internship at SC Braga, one of the biggest clubs in Portugal, which is present in various modalities and which acts on the largest national and international stages.
