Jose A.

I have coached at the high school level as well as private trainings with myself and a friend or a family member. I typically work with athletes from 14 and up but I am ready to open up and work with all ages.

Growing up I played for San Diego Surf and attended Oceanside high school. I have experience playing in Spain, France and Portugal as well as Mexico with Alebrijes De Oaxaca. I came back to play college and attended Mira Costa College where I was a part of the first ever Conference Championship. I was awarded all conference, offensive player of the year and led the teams in goals, assists and Points. I currently play in the NCAA with Concordia University Texas.

As an attacking player I really enjoy focusing on the fundamentals cause I believe great players are players who do the simple things at the highest level. I would start with a 10-15 min warm up to make sure no one gets hurt. I would then move into a short passing activity to get the ball moving and the feet a little warm and start building up with that drill. About 30 mins in I would give the first break and when they come in focus on dribbling in or around some cones. I would use this activity with progression and start moving towards goal. When it comes to finishing, I would have my client aiming for bottom corners and placing the ball and not just shooting for the fun of it.
