Taran W.

I have had the privilege of coaching summer camps for Barca Residency Academy while also coaching multiple college soccer summer camps run through the Men's Soccer Program at Fresno Pacific University. I have also coached futsal winter camps and private sessions.

I played 2 years at the Barca Residency Academy in Casa Grande, Arizona. 3 years at the DII level at Fresno Pacific University, and so far 1 year professionally at CV Fuego in USL 1.

At each session, the focus is to build a complete player, focusing on the technical, tactical, mental, and communicative sides of the sport, while at the same time making it fun and engaging throughout the session. My focus is mastery of the ball, and from there, all other aspects of the game will come much more easily to the player.
We begin with a dynamic warm-up that develops agility, coordination, and quick footwork, followed by technical drills that sharpen core skills like passing, dribbling, shooting, and first touch. These are always tailored to the player’s age and ability level so that each athlete is both challenged and encouraged. The goal is simple, to enable the player to develop physically and develop a passion for the game.
