More About Coach Davide
I’ve coached top MLS and NCAA players in NYC, as well as elite youth talent in MLS NEXT, U.S. Youth National Team pools, and competitive academies. I’ve worked with players ages 6 through professional, focusing on technical skill, tactical awareness, and total player development (with an emphasis on discipline, communication, and learning — values I bring from my Harvard education and playing career). I have 4+ years of coaching experience. Most recently, I’ve led private sessions through Joga NYC and have been approached by top NYC academies to join their staff. I specialize in individual technical development, position-specific drills (especially wingers and attacking midfielders), and building player confidence through creative, intense sessions.
Current Grenada Men’s National Team player and former U.S. Youth National Team player, developed within top Argentine academies. Trained at world-class facilities including Ajax, Real Madrid, Atlético Madrid, and U.S. and England national team training centers. Composed, physical center back/defensive midfielder with elite-level experience and a professional mentality.
I specialize in coaching ages 6 to adult, focusing on winger development, first touch, 1v1 attacking, finishing, and game IQ. I also work with players seeking pro trials, college prep, or return-to-play conditioning.
A typical session begins with dynamic warmups, followed by high-rep technical drills tailored to position (e.g., winger-specific 1v1s, crossing/finishing, movement in the final third). I always finish with game-realistic scenarios to reinforce decision-making under pressure.

Client Reviews
Rachel C. (Testimonial)
Working with Davide helped prepare my daughter for her college soccer season. He pushed her technically, physically, and mentally — but always with respect and care. She showed up to preseason ready and confident.
Jason R. (Testimonial)
Davide has an incredible ability to connect with younger players. He’s patient, encouraging, and keeps the sessions fun while still building real skills. My 9-year-old comes home buzzing after every session
Ethan T. (Player) (Testimonial)
Every session with Coach Davide pushes me in the right way. He breaks things down so I actually understand the ‘why,’ and I’ve seen the difference in my games and how I make decisions on the field.
Laura T. (Testimonial)
Coach Davide is the real deal. My son’s confidence, technical ability, and love for the game have grown so much in just a few sessions. He actually looks forward to training now — and that’s saying a lot!
Jen F (Testimonial)
My son’s confidence and skill level have grown tremendously since he began working with Coach Davide. He meets each player where they are, understands how to motivate them, and creates sessions that challenge and inspire. You can tell he genuinely cares — and that makes all the difference.
