David A.

I have Coached at the Collegiate Level, High School as well as club soccer. I have done private and group sessions all through the Maryland Area for years. I am comfortable working with players of all ages. I have my coaching Licenses as well.

I was a standout HS player who went on to play collegiate soccer and was a team captain for 3 of my collegiate years. While I was in HS I was an all county player my senior year. I was all voted to our local all star game my senior year. In College I was a starter all 4 years. I helped turn around a 1-11 program to go 9-6 and finish 4th in our region.

A typical session plan with me would consist of:

-Footskill drills to improve ball control in tight spaces. Also a focus on players expressing their creativity on the ball.

-First touch drills to work on ball control on the ground and out of the air. Directional touches out of pressure as well.

-Turning drills that focus on awareness and hip mobility. We will also focus on turns using different parts of the foot.

-Working on proper shooting technique and finishing. Shooting of the dribble, shooting from turning, and shooting with both feet. We will also work on finishing balls out of the air.

- Speed and agility to work on change of direction.
