More About Coach Joel
I have experience coaching abilities and skill levels across the board, from 8 year old new beginners to competitive adult men (UPSL). I first coached in Wales, United Kingdom back in 2018, helping coach an under 11's boy team called Hawarden Rangers. Then various different coaching experiences during the following years including holiday camps and team coaching. Previously a coach of an UPSL Division 2 team called Orlando Rovers Academy.
Currently a coach for Orlando City Soccer Schools.
I also have an FA Level 1 coaching badge and USSA Grassroots License.
I have played soccer (or more rightly football) since I was 5 growing up just outside Liverpool, England. I was vice captain for my University team, also winning player of the season and top goal scorer awards. My highest playing level was for semi-professional club Buckley Town FC, in Wales. After moving to the US in 2018 I have played in the UPSL and NSL over the past few years.
My football coaching philosophy is to making every player as well rounded as possible. Especially for younger players to develop them in being able to play any position on the pitch, training their "football brain" so as to be smart players as well as skillful players. The same goes for older players, however we will specify upon more positional focus to benefit player expertise.

Coach Joel really helped my 17 year old. Hos drills to help my son as a forward were invaluable to improving his striker abilities.

We were visiting Orlando for a few weeks this winter and I arranged for some private training for my 8 year old son who is fairly serious about the sport. Joel was prepared and able to adjust the drills to my son's skill level/what he needed to work on. Highly recommend.
Christian (CoachUp client)
First session for my 11 year old was excellent. Coach Joel targeted the exact drills he will need to shape him in to a well-rounded soccer player/ footballer. I'm looking forward to the next session!

We just completed our first lesson with Joel and are very happy with him! Joel was professional and courteous and immediately honed in on the elements needing improvement in my son’s soccer abilities. We are looking forward to continuing through the summer with Joel!
