More About Coach Miguelangel

I have been coaching for the past 7 years. From my past experiences as a player and coach, both from national and international trainings, I have found that technique/awareness are the two most important aspects of the game. A player NEEDS to have good technique & awareness to play the game the proper way. Game Fitness is gained with time and can be acquired through consistent training.

From the hundreds of sessions I have done, I have learned that kids up until the age of 10/11 should be perfecting their ball control technique, body movement technique, and building a foundation to have a strong mentality. In other words, build a solid relationship with the ball.

Starting at ages 12/13, players should begin to learn and study tactics, movement off the ball, passing angles, quick thinking, etc. I believe that a player can improve with proper guidance while training in the proper environment, there the player will have unlimited potential for growth.

For players 13+ is when you need to be fully invested in the game and learn everything possible to make you the smartest, most technical player you can be for YOUR position. It is important to know your position(s) and job role in said position(s). The mental side is also a HUGE factor during this period of growth.
I am super passionate for the game and always aim to pass the same enthusiasm I have down to my players. I have coached all ages from 2-40 years old!

Each training session is different for every player. Since every player has different goals, personalities, upbringings, etc. I give each player their own personalized session to where THEY can grow as people and as soccer player.

Sessions can vary anywhere from technique to shooting to game fitness. I make sure that every player gets he best training possible during our time together.
The first session with a new player is a basic session. The basic session consists of one and two touch passing, dribbling, and body movement/positioning.

From my first session, I can determine the players' strengths and weaknesses. After that, I begin to personalize the training sessions to specifically improve the players weaknesses and strengths. I am constantly asking questions and making sure my players knows exactly what he or she needs to do in order to properly dribble, pass, or shoot.

I always expect my players to give their best effort. I let them know that they will not learn in one day and patience is needed but with consistency and effort they will improve their game tremendously in no time.

Great session.

We were in town for a week, and we needed my son to stay sharp. Coach Miguelangel quickly assessed him, creating a challenging session for my son. He was also to connect with my son in short order. We'll definitely use him again when we're back in town!

Good coach

Coach Miguel was great. He provided a tough workout for two energetic five-year old boys that not only left them exhausted but also focused on skills.

Great Session, can't wait to train more with Miguelangel !!!

Coach Miguel is giving my son the basics which coach Miguel continues to add to each week, so that my son can continue to grow and develop as a player. Coach Miguel is very positive and encouraging and that makes for a great practice session.

Treinador Miguel está dando ao meu filho o básico para que o treinador Miguel continue a adicionar a cada semana, para que meu filho possa continuar a crescer e se desenvolver como jogador. Treinador Miguel é muito positivo e encorajador e isso faz uma excelente sessão de prática.

Coach Miguelangel is very thorough with his training and technique. My 12 year old daughter is currently training with him, she has been training with him once a week for 5 or 6 weeks, once a week saw improvements the very same day. I am also a soccer coach and I have to say he made me want to train with him too! He was very fun, creative, and engaging. He had my daughter's attention the whole time. He has a great eye, an important attribute for a coach to have in order to be able to correct even the smallest movement to better your kid's fundamentals. I highly recommend training with him, you won't regret it. Hurry up and reserve today with him, and tell him that AJ sent you! :)

Great coach! Signed up both kids for six private sessions and saw great improvement in two weeks! Highly recommended. Miguelangel was very professional and patient.
