"My son Carlos was part of the Poway Vaqueros Competitive Team where coach Ryan was an assistant coach. His coaching was professional, he was both strict and funny at times. I felt like all the kids loved him. I definitely saw my son Carlos grow as a better person on the field. When Ryan left my son was very sad that he wasn’t on the coaching staff and so was I. I am happy he reached out to me, to see how we are doing. I am honored to leave him this review.

Started playing soccer competitive at 10 years old for Grove United FC in Illinois. Played with the club for approximately 6 years right before I went to high school in 2010. I switched clubs to play for Jean-Pierre Tokoto, who played for Cameroon at the World Cup in the 80’s, at FC Tokoto until 2014. In high school at Adlai E. Stevenson, I captained the sophomore boys soccer team to an undefeated seasons and went to play for varsity at the beginning of my junior to senior year. I played collegiate soccer at Elmhurst University for 4 years and travelled with the soccer team to France and Spain to play second tier academy teams. Through rigorous training from ID camps, travel soccer, training with semi-pros, and physical fitness, I increased my knowledge and fundamental skills to help the teams I played for reach for many finals, championships, and bragging rights over rivals. “Futbol/soccer is the beautiful game”- Pèle.
