Coaches - AnySport

Returns information about a team’s current head coach, queried by either coach_id or team_id. The data is a current snapshot (the team’s “present” head coach) — it does not include historical coaching records and does not support filtering by season. Suitable for a simple “head coach” info display on a team details page.

Endpoint

GET /v1/soccer/coaches

Parameters

At least one of coach_id / team_id must be provided.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`coach_id`	string	One of these required	Coach ID (`asc_`)
`team_id`	string	One of these required	Query by team (`ast_`)
`lang`	string	No	`en` / `zh-CN`; invalid values silently fall back to the default language — see `GET /languages` (19) for available values

Coach data is a current snapshot (the team’s current coach); there is no season dimension and season filtering is not supported.

`coach_id`	string	Coach ID (`asc_` prefix)
`name`	string	Name
`team_id`	string	ID of the team being coached
