What an incredible year it's been watching you all grow on and off the pitch! I'm so proud of the progress every single one of you has made. As you take some well-deserved time off to celebrate with your loved ones, remember that rest is just as important as training. Recharge, spend quality time with family, and check out some football on TV over the break. Thank you for trusting me to be part of your soccer journey. Your commitment and passion inspire me every day, and I can't wait to see what we'll achieve together in the new year. Wishing you and your families a wonderful Christmas and happy holidays! 🎅🎁⚽ Enjoy the break. You've earned it! See you back on the pitch soon!

I wanted to share a quick update with everyone about my interview with LAFC’s affiliate club, LAFC SoCal. The conversation with their director and manager went strong, and I’m feeling optimistic about what’s ahead. The final decision isn’t in yet because the club is heading into their winter break, but I’ll be getting clarity in January once they confirm how many teams are available for me to coach. In the meantime, they’ve invited me to come out and observe their sessions during January. That alone is a big step forward and a sign that things are moving in the right direction. This is a huge moment in my coaching journey. I haven’t been coaching for decades, but I’m committed, I’m growing fast, and opportunities like this show that the work is paying off. I’ll continue sharing every part of this process, wins or losses, because that’s what this community is about. Essentially, part of my job would be to develop young players and help them prepare for trials with LAFC's (1st team) Academy. If everything lines up, I’ll be joining LAFC SoCal and possibly even setting up fun scrimmages between some of you guys here at Elite Soccer Academy and your teams down the line. 😃 I’ll keep everyone posted as soon as I get the final word. Appreciate all of you who support the work we’re doing here.
