He is very passionate about football, having played since he was 5 and coaching for many years.
Football provided Marc with many skills that he now uses in family life, socially and in his professional career:

Eager to give back to the game, Marc says:
“The founders of IFA have in common the betterment of the game in Australia. Our common focus is development of young players in a safe, affordable, collaborative, convenient, diverse and technical Footballing environment.”
