ABOUT DERICK

Derick Sequeira is a former professional footballer who signed with Toronto FC at 16 and represented Canada at the FIFA U-17 World Cup (2013). He has trained and competed across Europe and the Americas, learning first-hand what UEFA academies and top scouts demand. Off the pitch, Derick built and sold services—scaling an exotic paint-protection shop to $1M/year—and then founded Project Zero, a system that turns players into high performers on the field and in life.

Derick’s story includes national-team caps, pro minutes, and a decade of player development work. He has led elite clinics, scouting intensives, and pro-standard workshops for families who want real pathways—Europe trials, college scholarships, and business skills. His “Zero-to-Pro” approach blends daily targets, tracked reps, film study, and off-field mastery so players can win the game and win the future.

For years, Project Zero has delivered clear, practical training to players, parents, and teams—online and in person. The platform includes interactive workbooks, on-field sessions, on-demand lessons, live workshops, and personalized coaching across: technical, tactical, physical, mindset, nutrition, leadership, money skills, and personal brand. From beginner onboarding to advanced pro standards, the curriculum is step-by-step, measurable, and built for busy families. With 24/7 access to tools like the Pro Nutrition Calculator, UEFA-style Player Workbook, and Pro Assessment & Scouting Bundle, athletes and parents get a single system to drive results.

Recognized for a high-performance, no-excuses approach, Derick gives back through mentoring and community trainings focused on discipline, financial literacy for athletes, and real-world readiness. His mission: build 1,000,000 high performers who create options—on the pitch and off it.
