"Having been involved in professional soccer for almost two decades, I have come to understand that the most important values which we need to acquire are discipline, sacrifice, work ethic, and a mental toughness which will allow us to overcome adversity when competing at the highest high levels of any profession.


The physical and mental development of young athletes begins at an early age. For the past eight years I have been actively involved in Athlete Development, Sport Science and Objective Data Analysis which allow us to evaluate and develop both the athlete’s technical ability and performance related aspects. In this way we encourage mental wellness and confidence through the training loads and preventive measures needed to succeed.”
