DisorganizedFitness Is ImportantPoor Communication

I'm sincerely disappointed to say that my son has learned more from his travel coach in a shorter period than he has in the four long years of playing under this coach. It's disheartening to see the coach constantly placing blame on the players for every loss, seeking reassurance from other coaches on how inferior his team is compared to others they face, and completely lacking confidence in his own players. It's truly a shame that the school has allowed him to coach for 13 years without ever winning an ODAC play-off game. Clearly, it's high time to explore new opportunities and move on!

DisorganizedOld School MentalityPoor Communication

Plays his favorite players, not based on quality. Has a single minded style that fails always. Unwilling to listen to recommendations and has no actual understanding of the game and how to utilize players positive attributes.

Old School Mentality

A soccer coach that doesn’t watch any soccer. He’d rather watch March madness than the World Cup. Doesn’t like to adapt to players mentality and would have players play his style every time. Tries to have open communication with players but shuts down most ideas that players bring up when it comes to tactics. Has no idea how to correctly form a high press and offensively doesn’t have the mind for the todays game of soccer that most clubs teach the kids before they go to college. If you want to sit back and defend for 80 minutes a game for most games this is the coach and school for you.
