In the last two seasons, he was on the coaching bench together with Head Coach Manny Viveiros, the new Head Coach of the Red Bulls.

Adam Maglio, Assistant Coach EC Red Bull Salzburg
"I am thrilled to be joining EC Red Bull Salzburg, which has a long history of player development and success. This is an exciting opportunity for me to work in a world-class organization with a dedicated staff. At the same time, I am looking forward to working in professional field hockey in Europe. The win2day ICE Hockey League is a first-class league that attracts top players from all over the world. And I'm looking forward to working with Manny Viveiros. We have worked together on two different occasions in North America and now we are both looking forward to working with the EC Red Bull Salzburg team."
Manny Viveiros, Head Coach EC Red Bull Salzburg
"Adam has an excellent field hockey mind. His strengths are developing and building relationships with athletes, which is essential for the development of young players. He will therefore play an important role in our coaching team. I have worked with Adam for three years previously and I am delighted that he is now part of my coaching team at the Red Bulls."

Adam Maglio completes the Salzburg coaching team with new Head Coach Manny Viveiros and existing coaches Daniel Petersson and Markus Kerschbaumer.
After many years as a junior coach at the Red Bull Ice Hockey Academy, Petersson made the step up to the Salzburg professional team in 2021 and has since been involved in all of the Red Bulls' successes as an assistant coach. The 43-year-old Swede is mainly responsible for the defensemen on the bench and is also particularly involved in the development of the younger players from the Red Bull Ice Hockey Academy during training. In the coming season, he will be in his sixth season as coach of the current defending champions.
Kerschbaumer can build on 20 years of experience as a goalkeeping coach and has been responsible for Salzburg's goalkeepers for six years. The 50-year-old native of Villach also worked for the Austrian national team in earlier years and has perfectly prepared the Salzburg Red Bulls goalkeepers for their tasks in recent years. In addition to his work in the Salzburg professional team, Kerschbaumer is also responsible for the training and further education of goalkeeper coaches at the Red Bull Ice Hockey Academy, where he passes on his extensive knowledge to the next generation of coaches.
