More About Coach Chris
I have been a coach in middle TN for the YMCA and Eagle Express coaching U4-U12 age groups. I hold a USSF D License and NSCAA Level 6 plus Goal Keeping 2. I am continuing to develop my coaching and believe the success of future USA Soccer starts with the youth and teaching them fundamentals and love of the sport.
I have played soccer since I was 4 years old. I played in High School and Premier AAA soccer in Indiana as well as playing 2 years at Purdue University Club Team. I remain an active soccer player in local Nashville adult leagues. I believe the combination of former player, current player and current coach give me a solid understanding of the needs of our youth and future soccer stars.
The most important training a player needs is technical development of foundation skills of agility, dribbling, foot skills, 1st touch, passing and shooting. Those are the skills I focus first on with any player at any level.

Client Reviews
Kim (CoachUp client)
Very patient. All our 9 year old boys liked him. Easy good drills that kids can practice at home. Coach Chris is worth it!
Stacey T, Parent (Testimonial)
I love how Chris always asks the kids if they are having fun. They are not professional athletes and that is the most important thing to me as a parent.
Crystal B, Parent (Testimonial)
Chris and the A2D Soccer crew are exceptional at teaching while providing a fun learning environment and encouraging the children to become better and practice!
Kim D. Parent (Testimonial)
Chris has the patience of a saint! His ability to work with players of any age and help them understand it such a needed trait in coaches today.
