More About Coach Ruben

A.Y.S.O., club, high school and college. I have taught classes to young children from 4 to 12yrs. in rec. & parks programs for 11 yrs. I have run camps & clinics, club academy director, head coach in high school for six yrs., college for 3 yrs.,I train club teams,
conduct private lessons and small groups. I have referee & playing experience.
I am a multilevel license holder from the United States Soccer Federation, a member of Natl.Soccer Coaches Org., am current
with 1st aid & CPR.

I am a former professional athlete, with leagues top player award 2 yrs. and played college sports. Have been in several post season play- offs and won league 4 times.

Sessions usually are formatted to the specific needs of the player. I consult with the parents then with the player to arrive at an assessment that will suit the direction the player and I need to take. The basic drills consist of speed & plyo-metrics training, ball handling, passing, trapping,conditioning, technical & tactical skills. While all this is going on I carefully work on their confidence, their head to remove any doubts and focus on the positive, which opens the mind for learning. Rapport is very important and since I really enjoy and care about kids it is real easy for us to work on the same page. Being part of their growth
is the aspect I love the most. No matter what they decide to do if they are growing they will always have great self-esteem.
This is my goal!

My 11 year old son loves soccer and is a striker on his club team. He is naturally fast and athletic, but sometimes tentative and uncertain in his matches. After a few months of working with Coach Ruben there are noticeable improvements in his overall game. His ball skills, fundamentals, and confidence have been markedly upgraded. My son enjoys his sessions with Coach Ruben and we are grateful for his instruction. My son is growing as a player, so we plan plan to continue our sessions with Coach Ruben. Thanks Coach!

Coach Ruben taught the FUNdamentals to our students. He worked with 1st through 8th graders and broke down the skills appropriately for each group. They all enjoyed their soccer clinic for the day!

Coach Ruben has been awesome! He is very patient and knowledgeable. I have seen a lot of improvement in my sons soccer skills and ability. He enjoys going to his lessons each week. Thank you Coach Ruben!

Coach Ruben has been wonderful . My daughter has learned a lot while also enjoying the time very much. Ruben is very kind and patient, not just yelling drills on the field, which was very important to me . We are very happy with the entire experience .

My son is 7 and started playing competitive soccer recently. His confidence started to suffer and he seemed to loose his love for the game. Then we met Ruben. Already after just two sessions my son found his love for soccer again. I couldn’t believe how quickly his mindset and attitude changed for the better. Ruben knows how to handle kids and finds a way to relate to them in a way I can’t even do as his own mom. My son has learned so much in just a few weeks it’s incredible. His footwork, ball control, and even more importantly his knowledge of how the game actually works, has improved immensely. Ruben is the perfect mix of fun and goofy mixed with the right amount of discipline. My son is quite picky with people, especially men since I am a single mom, and he took to Ruben quicker than I could have imagined. My sons soccer coach has already commented on how much my son has improved and he is getting more playing time each game. Ruben isn’t just a coach he’s become a friend. After the first session he called the next day to see how I felt and ask me questions about my son that would help him to understand his personality and lifestyle so that he could really be on his level and know how to relate to him. On top of that Ruben calls after each wknd game to ask me how he played and how he is feeling! He really cares about his students and not just how well they play soccer but also how they feel emotionally. If I could give him 10 stars I would, Ruben really is the best!

Positive aspect on the game of soccer. Works great with child and knowledgeable about the game. I see lots of improvement with just a few lessons. I would recommend Ruben to my friends!

Coach Ruben is great! He is patient with kids. My son loved going to training session every time. He learned quite bit of soccer skills.

Coach Ruben is professional and knowledgeable . My son enjoyed and learned a great deal from him. I highly recommend Coach Ruben to anyone who is just beginning or looking to improving their game. Will be using Coach in the future.

Coach Ruben did a great job communicating and showing my son exactly what was needed of him during the session. I would recommend Coach Ruben.
