- Coaching Philosophy: Much like life, soccer provides players and coaches with challenges without a clear right or wrong answer. It is my charge as a coach as well as an educator to create an environment that allows players to understand concepts and principles of the game, without dictating tasks players must replicate by rote. As a general principle, my coaching methodology consists of putting kids in playing environments where they’re forced to make decisions, they can be autonomous, and they are free to find answers to problems on the field.
