MFS Pro

What MFS Pro does

MFS Pro (legal entity: Niedermeier, Schuppke & Ferrari GbR) is a German private partnership that provides individualized football training and sports-management services to professional players and top talents. The company was spun off in 2024 from the Münchner Fussball Schule, a 20-year-old Munich-area youth football academy, in response to growing demand from professional footballers for development support beyond their club team training. Its service is delivered directly by three trainers — Michael Schuppke, David Niedermeier, and Dominic Ferrari — who collectively hold UEFA A-Lizenz credentials and prior coaching experience at TSV 1860 München, FC Bayern München, FC Augsburg, and SpVgg Unterhaching.

The core product is structured around four pillars: position-specific technical training, individual video analysis, athletic training and nutrition, and sports career planning. Each player receives a bespoke development plan beginning with an assessment, followed by high-frequency repetitions with individual corrections, detailed video analysis, and ongoing weekly exchanges. Service delivery is one-on-one, in-person, and personalized; there is no software platform, mobile app, or self-service digital product. The company operates from a registered address in Martinsried, near Munich, and serves athletes across Germany, Austria, Poland, and Greece.

MFS Pro runs a professional-services revenue model with quote-based, multi-year contracts; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, primarily through direct outreach to players and their representatives, complemented by an Instagram presence (@mfspro_training) and a service-detail website. The customer base comprises 14+ named professional players from Bundesliga, 2. Bundesliga, 3. Liga, and international leagues, and an exclusive partnership with match2gether extends the offering into contract-related advisory services. There is no external funding, no parent-level institutional ownership, and the partnership is wholly founder-controlled.

Core offering

MFS Pro provides personalized one-on-one football training, athletic conditioning, and career management services for professional football players and top talents. The offering is structured around four integrated pillars: position-specific technical training, individual video analysis, athletic training and nutrition, and sports career planning. Services are delivered by three trainers with backgrounds from Bundesliga clubs and sports science, applying a methodology of high-frequency repetitions with individual corrections and personal feedback.

Product overview

MFS PRO is a unified professional football training and sports management service operated by the Munich Football School (Münchner Fussball Schule). Rather than a modular software platform, it provides integrated individual coaching services organized around four pillars: Position-Specific Technical Training, Individual Video Analysis, Athletic Training & Nutrition, and Sports Career Planning. Each player receives a bespoke development plan beginning with an assessment and progressing through structured implementation with direct feedback and weekly exchanges. The service draws on 20 years of youth development experience from the Munich Football School and is delivered by a three-trainer team with backgrounds in Bundesliga youth and professional football operations.
