Literally is the worst coach I've ever had. The other girls saying he is great haven't experienced other coaches that don't give playing time to people that go sit in his office and ask for it. He has absolutely no idea how to coach, doesn't know how to make a lineup, is extremely unorganized, and spends so much time researching nonsense that doesn't help us win. No wonder we never made it to the tournament. He caused a lot of mental illness on the team and makes terrible assumptions about girls and says them to other players. Oh can't forget if you meet with him he'll spend the entire time talking about other players. But if you enjoy writing essays after each game definitely come here because that's what he'll make you do, and you'll have quizzes before games. He also never changes his ways, doesn't care what advice you offer up, and believes we're not here to win lol. Do anything but come here, I hate soccer now because of him.

One of the best coaches I have ever played for. He really wants us to succeed on the field, but even more so off the field in the classroom and as women. He is always available to talk and knows so much.
