My favorite part about being a girls soccer coach is that I get to teach kids to reach for their dreams and goals. Soccer development to me is – and always will be – about teaching life lessons through the fun and dynamic medium of sport (i.e. be a good teammate, create positive habits, build self-esteem, and always look to challenge and improve yourself everyday)! Coaching soccer is all about engaging the mental, physical, technical, tactical, and life style into one place… the field.
The coaches at USA Stars focus on every aspect of soccer development. With an advanced and proven methodology, we don’t just play soccer here, we live it! We invite all soccer families and players with a passion and a dream to team up with USA Stars Academy to work towards realizing our dreams together!
