Sirisak Yodyardthai (Thai: ศิริศักดิ์ ยอดญาติไทย) is a Thai football manager who last managed Thai Honda in the Thai League 1 and sometimes coached their youth sides.[2]

Early life

When he was 15, Sirisak was given the chance to play with his football idol, which made him want to pursue a football career.[2] Besides playing football, he also enjoyed running in torrid weather with his brother.[2]

Career

Under his tutelage, Thai Honda were promoted to the Thai League 1 for the 2017 season. The Bangkok University graduate believes that players should not undertake vigorous physical activity before a game as it will exhaust rather than energize the player.

He led his team to their first top-flight victory in 10 years when they beat Bangkok United 1–0.[3]

Before he became coach of Thai Honda, he did multiple jobs for them including carrying their equipment, preparing food and even being a van driver for the club. Also, he has been an assistant coach for 17 years.[1] In 2016, he replaced Takami Masami as coach.[2]

His sacking as coach was announced in April 2017 after a 3–1 defeat to Chonburi.[4][5] with 3 wins and 8 losses.[6]
