who we are

Professional qualifications and values of a youth soccer coach.

John Tait (Founder)

Originally from Scotland, I moved to the United States in March 2007 to pursue a career in soccer coaching. I have worked for various training programs, clubs, and a league/tournament provider, which has given me a strong and diverse perspective on the youth soccer landscape. It is my goal to help facilitate positive developmental experiences for players and their families.

Qualifications

I am qualified through the Scottish Football Association (SFA), the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), and the United States Soccer Federation (USSF).

Network

With friends and colleagues currently working across the United States, I have access to valuable resources in every level of soccer, from recreational and youth soccer clubs to college and professional teams.
