Samenvatting

A head coach's experience matters — tournament pedigree, tenure with the national team, and whether they rose through the federation's youth system. This page documents the manager profile dataset for all 48 WC 2026 coaches.

The dataset lives at data/wc2026/manager_profiles.csv (one row per nation, 48 total). It is produced by scripts/pull_manager_profiles.py and complements the lighter coaches.csv (identity, date of birth, appointment date) that the project already maintained.
