He is avidly searching for the next Mathew Leckie in time for the league's October kick-off.
Borussia Monchengladbach winger Leckie was famously identified playing in the backblocks of the Victorian Premier League three years ago by the canny Reds.
Coolen is fixed on finding hidden gems like former Hindmarsh favourite Leckie who have fallen through the cracks in our own backyard.
Coolen and former Reds defenders Michael Valkanis and Angelo Costanzo will be conducting clinics from April 18 ahead of a 20-week program that identifies under-14, under-15 and under-16 players not aligned to the SA Institute of Sport.
Great news I can really see SA football returning to the glorys days and loads of SA boys flying the flag in Europe.
