Training
- Paladin Power and Speed Program
- 1 year
- Trains working on conditioning and speed while doing footwork. Works with high level high school and college boys and girls. I was one of the most fit players there and most technical.
- Edge Soccer Programs
- 1 year
- I started Edge Soccer Programs during the winter break after Paladin was sold. Edge was an updated and upgraded version of Paladin with a higher intensity and making the drills more game-like. I was apart of Edge through the summer leading up to my 8th-grade year, but during the winter break, I was unable to partake in Edge. The reason was I had to have two surgeries that are not sports-related, this ruled me out for the winter break. They, unfortunately, closed during the spring season of my 8th-grade year.
- Route10 Futbol
- 1 year
- Directed by my club coach Mark Jonas, private training which works on footwork and technical side of the game along with playing smart and possession. Worked on dribbling, passing range, and shooting heavily along with high level small sided scrimmages. Offered to high level club and academy players.
