More About Coach Matthew
I am currently a professional soccer player for the Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC. As well as performing in sports for many years now, I also have my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, specifically Exercise and Sport Science from Temple University and am currently getting my MBA from Bellevue University. I am entering my 7th year of professional soccer and I thoroughly enjoy working with athletes aged 10 and above because I believe my knowledge in soccer can help them achieve whatever goals they desire. This can include making a college team, or just getting to a level where they are playing on their club team.
I attended Temple University in Philadelphia for four years where I played division 1 soccer and played in every match the team had in that time span. I then turned to professional soccer in Philadelphia with the Bethlehem Steel FC for 2 years from 2017-2018. Next, I signed for Sacramento Republic FC for 2 years from 2019-2020 and am currently signed with professional side Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC in the United Soccer League. I have played here from 2021- present and am entering my 7th professional season.
Firstly, I will run the athlete through a warmup that involves dynamic movements as well as ball work. The entire session will revolve around getting as many touches on the ball as possible because I believe that is how soccer players become better, with repetition. I want players to be well-rounded as well, so we will work on the athlete’s weaknesses as well as build on his or her strengths. I am open to any questions the athlete has and try to make the sessions as enjoyable as possible. I can guarantee your child will learn a lot and have fun in the process.

Client Reviews
Elliot (CoachUp client)
Matt was an excellent Coach for my son. He worked on numerous ball handling, passing and shooting drills. He provided timely feedback and positive reinforcement when my son struggled on certain things. There was a lot crammed into the hour and now my son has lots of drills and skill moves to work on independently. He’s motivated to learn more and get better with more practice. Thank you so much!
Antonio (CoachUp client)
Coach Matthew is an exceptional coach. In just one session, he offered my son tremendous value, not only in developing his technical skills but also in enhancing his soccer IQ and mental toughness. As a professional player and the captain of his team, Matthew brings a wealth of experience, yet remains humble and incredibly approachable. This made my son, who is a huge fan of both him and the team, feel completely at ease.
My son can’t wait to continue training with Coach Matthew. Thank you, Coach, for not only teaching but also inspiring young athletes with your passion and dedication.

We look forward to the next one.

My son and his friends had such a great time with Coach Matthew! He made it really fun for them and was so flexible and accommodating with place and time. Would recommend to anyone! Now we have even more fun watching Switchbacks games too because we know a player!
