About Derek

Hi I'm Derek! I recently graduated from UC Santa Cruz, where I played four years of college soccer as a winger and an outside back. Since graduation, I have continued to stay involved with the sport both as a fan (come on Arsenal) and by playing in the SFSFL and other pick-up games around the city. As a coach, I use my experience with technical drills I have found most effective during my 16+ years as a player, and shape my sessions around whatever skills you'd like to work on, whether that be finishing, defending, technique, etc.

What students say...

"The lesson was pretty good, especially since I appreciated how close Derek liked to stay nearby during the drill. Though I still need to get more comfortable with the ball, I feel like I made some decent progress, and the lesson highlighted that proximity can really help with focus. Hopefully, next time I can build more confidence with ball control. If you’re looking for a coach who keeps things close and helpful, Derek might be worth a try.

About Kamal

With nine years of dedicated soccer instruction, I cultivate a passion for the game while refining skills and strategy. I tailor sessions to each student, fostering both technical prowess and tactical understanding. I believe in a positive, challenging environment where every player can excel.

What students say...

"Kamal's lesson really helped me understand some key techniques, especially focusing on proper ball control. It’s pretty clear he knows his stuff and puts effort into making sure each player gets useful feedback, though I’d say I still need more practice on consistency. Still, I feel like I made decent progress and I’d be curious to see how my skills develop after another lesson. If you’re into improving your soccer skills, trying Kamal’s lesson could be worthwhile.

About Francesco

With over 28 years of soccer experience, I bring a lifelong passion for the game to every team I coach. I played competitively at Miramonte High School and have spent my life immersed in youth soccerβ€”as both a player and a dedicated coach.

Whether working with beginners or experienced players, I focus on creating a positive, disciplined, and high-energy environment where young athletes can grow and thrive. I don’t just coach the gameβ€”I build players who love it, live it, and leave it all on the field.

What students say...

"Francesco’s coaching helped me step up as a leader in ways I never expected. He showed me how to take responsibility, motivate others, and lead by example. Because of him, I’m more confident guiding my team and handling challenges both during games and in everyday life.

Adapting Lessons for Kids When working with children, it's essential to create a fun, engaging, and positive learning environment. Here are a few ways to adapt lessons: Keep it fun: Incorporate games and activities that capture children's attention and imagination, such as animal-themed drills or creating obstacle courses. Emphasize encouragement and positivity: Praise children for their efforts and focus on improvement rather than just winning or losing. Simplify instructions: Break down drills and activities into easy-to-understand steps, using demonstrations and visual aids to help kids grasp the concepts. Tailor skill development: Be patient with children as they develop their skills, adapting drills and activities to accommodate individual progress. Encourage teamwork and fair play: Teach kids the importance of working together, respecting their teammates, and showing good sportsmanship on and off the field. By implementing these strategies, you can create an enjoyable and effective learning experience for young soccer players.
