More About Coach Assem
I have coached soccer players and athletes of a range of different ages, fluctuating from youth athletes to college and a few pro athletes. I have been doing private training for soccer players individually for four years, and I am very passionate about my work. Before soccer coaching, I was also a Taekwondo instructor from the age of 13, and I have instilled in me through my experience the aspects of respect, discipline, care, and responsibility to myself and the people I work with. In terms of coaching outside of private soccer training, I have had some stints with a high school soccer team, namely St. Paul Central, and competitive youth soccer with St. Paul Blackhawks. However, my preferred coaching method is private training consisting of one-on-one sessions because I enjoy working with the athletes more closely and understand their needs better on a personal level of play. Most of the athletes I’ve worked with consist of high school players, but I have the flexibility to work with athletes of all ages.
I am a compassionate, motivated, highly organized, and dedicated soccer player equipped with a positive attitude and drive to attain success. I have had experiences as a professional and a semi-professional athlete In the US and abroad in Egypt, playing for clubs such as Pyramids FC, Ittihad Alexandria, Mpls city, Sporting Alexandria, and Wadi Degla FC. I also played high school soccer at St. Paul Central, which was successful, and I’ve been honored with countless awards such as Mr. Soccer award finalist for the top senior player 2A, Star Tribune All-Metro First Team, Pioneer Press Player of The Year, Named on high school All-American watch list by the United Soccer Association, and MSHSL All-State First Team to name a few. Personally, I know the opportunities that this sport can bring to kids and how hard work and consistency can pay off. Coaching has given me the opportunity to give back and show the players how the sport can give them valuable opportunities. I consider myself a skillful soccer player with a self-directive talent for performing in highly stressed conditions. Hardworking and diligent with the ability to plan ahead and reach high-quality accomplishments. Along with this, I am strong-minded, and goal-oriented, and display an excellent work ethic for the success of myself and my teammates, which also is translated into my coaching philosophy.
A typical session with me consists of high-intensity and detail-oriented work. Athletes can expect to be guided through a full professional warmup up and mobilization and engage in speed & agility drills to activate the muscles. My soccer drills consist of working on aspects of building game awareness, technique, first touch, dribbling, passing, heading, and shooting. I also have the capacity and freedom to provide something extra to the athlete if they wish to work on a particular aspect of their game or position. I like to structure my drills around game situations and try to make them as game realistic as possible so that when it comes to games, the drills used in training feel second nature and give confidence in preparation. I encourage athletes working with me to provide maximum effort to focus through every one of the sessions and push them past their comfort zone because, in this way they will see improvements.

Anders (CoachUp client)
I didn’t know what to expect when my signed up for my 12 year old son. Assem was prepared with all the cones and had the entire hour perfectly planned. Assem is a humble guy with a fantastic attitude and an ability to support and build up confidence for the player. Absolutely outstanding if your child needs to improve any skills or confidence in soccer.
Kevin (CoachUp client)
Coach Assem was very easy to work with. He had a well-organized workout plan which covered important aspects of the position (in my case GK). I'm a senior athlete, and I found that he was attentive to when I needed to take breaks and slow down. Highly recommended.
