More About Coach Christian

I’ve been an assist coach at Northern Illinois Fc in DeKalb, Illinois where I earned my bachelors degree in Corporate Communication. I assisted in coaching the youth talent around the area for development and growth. I have also done 1 on 1 training sessions for young athletes in Houston, Texas; Omaha, Nebraska and Richmond, Virginia. As a former professional soccer player I want to pass on my knowledge of the game to other passionate athletes.

Before attending a 4 year university, I played in the Houston Dynamo Academy. After the academy, I played NCAA Division 1 soccer at Northern Illinois University for 4 years. After graduating university, I signed my first professional contract with Union Omaha. I spent 2 seasons with Union Omaha and was privileged to win a national Championship in USL League One. I then went on to sign with the professional soccer team Richmond Kickers for the 2022 soccer season. During my time in college, I also participated with the Salvadoran youth National Team. Throughout my career, I have played in attacking positions such as center and wide midfielder. I help my team by scoring goals and creating assists for my teammates.

There are many aspects to the game of soccer, therefore I will train my clients to become an overall better soccer player. Technical ability is very important in the game so they will see passing drills, cone exercises, and workouts that allow them to gain better control of the ball. Fitness and speed are crucial in the game, so they will see conditioning with and without the ball. Ladder drills will be used for quick feet and agility which help tremendously on the field. My clients will also experience shooting drills to improve their goal scoring ability. Not only will I focus on the physical aspect of the game, but also the mental side. How to stay focused even when they are tired or how to stay calm in big moments. All that being said, soccer is a fun sport and activity so my clients will enjoy training and getting better.

Coach Christian was great today with my son.
Great feedback from my son about Coach Christian.
Would definitely continue to train with him .

Coach Christian has been great with our son, and our son loves working with him. We have already seen great improvement in just the couple lessons we've had so far, and we are looking forward to continued growth!

Coach Christian did an excellent job! My son loved it! Highly recommended

Coach Christian is great for our 10 yr old son. He is encouraging, is able to see strengths and areas that need improvement. We look forward to working with Coach Christian more in the future.

The session for my 2 sons was well planned and thought out. Great training session to identify strengths and weaknesses and than a plan going forward to address their weaknesses

Christian has been wonderful training our 12 year old son who has played team soccer for 4 years. The drills are so individualized focusing on the areas that need improvement while still enhancing his strengths. We are so pleased with the progress our son has made. I was hesitant to leave a review because I don’t want to miss out on having a spot for our son! 😃

We love working with Christian!

Great work out and professional drills.

Coach Molina, gets down to business and puts the kids to work quickly. He has a way of being positive while still correcting, “great contact, good idea, try this”. Our son has really responded to him and I am sure he will progress quickly!!

Coach Christian is very knowledgeable & patient. My 9-year-old loved his session with Coach Christian. He was immediately excited to practice what he learned. We have signed up for more and are excited to continue to learn & grow.

We’ve had 2 sessions so far and Coach Christian has already focused on the key areas my daughter needed to improve. He’s so positive and supportive. She’s enjoying working with him and we can’t wait to see her improve.

Great first session with Christian!

Coach Christian is an excellent player coach. He clearly understands the game and will put your kid(s) through a variety of skillful drills that they WILL utilize in actual gameplay. This isn't just a get together where the coach kicks the ball back and forth with your child all session long; he not only will make sure your child is executing the drill correctly, but he will explain why you should execute it that way. Coach Christian is extremely timely! We always love to arrive at any session 10 to 15 minutes early, but he was already set up and waiting for us with all of his gear when we arrived. We can't say enough about this coach... on top of everything else, he is very nice and responsive.

Coach Christian is great to work with! We've had two father/son sessions for a 40+ beginner and an 11-year old with ~1 year of rec league experience. Christian has a lot of great drills that keep the tempo high, can be practiced at home between sessions, and help with lots of elements of the game - the obvious ones like shooting and passing, but also agility and sprinting, for example. I think it says a lot about Christian how much we enjoyed our sessions...I'm sure he coaches players much more skilled than us, but he's done a wonderful job to adapt our sessions to keep them fun, focused, and something we're excited to keep building on. Thanks!

Great communication and coaching. My son can’t wait to return.

Christian was excellent. He was patient with my 5 year old daughter, but also wasn’t afraid to grab her attention to keep her on task. She enjoyed her session and learned so much. My husband and I learned a lot as well. We are looking forward to our next session!

My son just had his first training session with Coach Christian. His communication before the session was great. He was flexible with dates/times despite having a very busy schedule as a professional player. My son enjoyed training with him, and I think further sessions will be very helpful to his game. We look forward to working with Coach Christian more!

Coach Christian was extremely fast in responding to booking the session. During the session he was very helpful with giving positive affirmation and critiques that is going to help improve my game. In our first session we primarily focused ball control and shooting by doing various drills. During the session he was very involved and his coaching style is professional and encouraging. I recommend him as a coach and look forward to working with him again.
