More About Coach Christian

As a professional futsal and collegiate player, my 8 years years of experience have refined into a passion for coaching. I aim to improve players technical skills, physical abilities with professional training and skill development. Working together, these foundational skills with the youth can transfer into other aspects of their lives, on and off the field.

I feel as I best stand on the technical training side of game as I love player development and the attention to detail for each player. I enjoy teaching my Skills and challenging every player. Too many times club soccer neglects the individual aspect of the game (technical abilities, conditioning, or mental side of game) my goal is to enhance players performance with customize player specific trainings to each player that trains with me.

Current Varsity Los Altos HS soccer coach, coached at Palo Alto Soccer Club, Stanford Soccer Club, Earthquakes club

I have played semi-pro soccer as well as professional futsal. Current collegiate player who got recruited by many top division one and two schools across the country. I practice what I preach as my trainings are shared with all my players.

Each session/player requires different needs from me as a coach. I tend to plan my sessions based on what the player needs. Each session starts with a quality warm-up, footwork agility activation, technical skill ability then I move onto position-based drills (outside backs, center backs, forwards, midfield). My sessions have unique drills, I care about quality over quality. I tend to add cognitive drills (using blazepods) with ball to help each player build a better reaction, focus, decision making, and much more. One of the biggest aspects I tend to focus on is the mental side of training. Its important players are ready physically and mentally to optimize their development.

Each session will challenge each player to help reach their goals. A creative, challenging, fun, realistic setting is where I believe each can grow from.

Christian was great, he really helped our son improve his skills.

Coach Christian is great! He introduces a lot of different training tactics that in turn brings out that competitiveness in my 10y old. Very easy to work with, professional, and accommodating to our schedule. We're very pleased to have found him on here.

My eleven year old daughter loves training with Coach Christian. He is very professional and keeps her challenged for the entire hour. I have already noticed improvements in her soccer skills and fitness after just a few weeks of training.

Excellent coach - knows exactly what my son needs to be a better player. Very personable and easy to work with. I recommend Christian highly.

Great coach!

Outstanding coach!

It took ten minutes for my kid to fall in love with Coach Christian. He is able to engage with young children, and get them to perform their best. He was prompt, courteous and professional beyond his years. We look forward to using him again soon.
