More About Coach Alan

I have over 15 yrs experience coaching. I have coached girls and boys both in a team setting and on a personal level. I relate well with kids, and have a knack for making kids feel comfortable so that they can open up and improve their skills in a positive environment!

I was an All American at Yavapai Community College and again at Oregon State university. Leading the PAC 10 in goals junior and senior years.
I have played professional soccer for 15 yrs. receiving rookie of the year honors (A-league) leading the league in goals.
Have 2 caps for the USNNT, also a member of the gold medal winning USMNT in the gold cup 2013

The first session will be a series of technical cone drills I.e. Dribbling, passing, shooting. To asses skill level of the individual. After the initial assessment we will work on specific drill to improve weaknesses and grow strengths. The session will be upbeat, positive experience for the kid that will build confidence as well as skill.

Client Reviews

Coach Alan was great with my 12 year old son. Very positive and technically knowledgeable, pretty cool for my son to learn from a former professional player. Thanks so much Alan, we will be back.

Coach Alan provided a learning filled first session with my 14 yo. He taught proper technique and scoring skills enthusiastically. He is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the game. My son is excited for the next the training.

Coach Alan really worked my son on several different fundamentals of the game from the first minute through to the last. Luke seemed to really enjoy his coaching and he is very excited to have his next session. I really think Luke will be a better player after a few of these sessions.

Alan is a great coach. Sort of amazing to have our son be exposed and to work with someone with such a successful college and professional career. He is of course highly skilled, great at teaching, very relate-able and makes it fun. Highly recommend coach Alan for any soccer player.

My kids had a great first session with Coach Alan. He gave very clear yet positive feedback and they already made improvements by the end of the session. He's easy to communicate with and great with kids. Looking forward to future sessions.

It was a pleasure meeting Coach Alan. My son Daniel learned a lot from him as well as I did. Daniel sponged in everything that Coach Alan taught him. At his game that same week, I noticed changes that Coach Alan had implemented on Daniel and I was very pleased. Will definitely book more sessions with Coach Alan!
Thank you Coach Alan!!!

Regards
A very Happy and pleased parent!!

After her initial session with Coach Alan, our daughter was thrilled with her experience and the results. Coach Alan is friendly and related to our daughter very well. I appreciated his focus on technique - particularly ball striking technique - and I was very favorably impressed with Coach Alan's professionalism and the results of the session. We came home and immediately signed up for more sessions.
Follow Up: 12 sessions in and we see so much progress. There is the agility and speed training; trapping and finishing at game speed; making the right decisions under pressure; the art of the long, accurate pass; and, perhaps most important, the development of confidence that comes from positive encouragement, hard work, and reinforcing the importance of preparation. For many reasons that include Alan's level of preparation and genuine interest in developing young players, our daughter absolutely loves and is thriving in these sessions.

Watching Alan teach my son how to stay on the ball is so much fun. His technique and style of communication resonates well with my 14 year old. We will absolutely continue our sessions with Alan.

Our daughter just had her first training session with Coach Alan and she loved it! Coach Alan related very well with our daughter and explained himself thoroughly. He stresses technique and the basics of ball handling and balance. One thing in particular he has helped our daughter with is her ball striking technique. I appreciate his experience he brings to the sessions and after one session he has taught our daughter things that she is already applying to her game. We will definitely be signing up for more sessions with Coach Alan.
