I have informally trained kids in soccer many times and with many different skill levels. I have experience with not only skill development, but also explosiveness and strength training. I coached a coed youth team for one season, winning the championship and helping kids understand the importance of positional play, individual development, and team tactics.

I played 4 years of high school soccer, starting my sophomore, junior, and senior seasons, earning captains bands for my junior and senior seasons. My senior season I earned the most valuable defensive player and leadership awards at the end of the year. I am coming off my sophomore season in college earning a starting spot as a center midfielder and false 9.

My training sessions will focus on individual and positionally specific development. The focus will be developing the athlete's skill and overall knowledge of the game of soccer. Yes, tactics will be included in some occasions, but I trust the athlete will be learning more of the tactic and team side of soccer by playing on a team and have a team coach them. My aim would be to help the athlete gain confidence on the ball. I would also make myself available outside of our sessions to come to games (schedule permitting), watch film, and write up workout programs for the athlete to do outside of our training sessions.
