Recruit , develop and supervise travel coaching staff

Devise curriculum and training programs for recreational and travel leagues

Direct all camps and clinics 

Established programs for U5, U6 and U7 leagues emphasizing skill development and small-sided games to better prepare and recruit players for travel soccer

Created HYS Pilot Program to give U7-U8 boys and girls advanced skill training in preparation for travel soccer

 

The U5-U8 program’s success has propelled the club’s growth in size and skill development. Success can be measured through the greater level of play and achievement of current U9 and U10 teams with players who have developed through the U5-U8 program, when compared to older age groups not inducted in those programs.

HYS player enrollment has risen almost 40 percent in the last four years under my direction, from 1850 players in 2010 to 2600 players currently
