- There first has to be a player’s love for the game and a desire to play. This is the cornerstone and foundation for any player. I believe in individual player skill, player discipline, player work ethic. Team formation and team strategy is most successful when players have good mindset for player accountability. Individual player skill – good skill level allows a player to be successful on the pitch and allows that player to have fast decision-making ability with good execution. Discipline – this is player knowledge of the game. Should a player make a run forward or drift back in support. Should a player make a move for square support? Should a player take on a defender or distribute? Should a player pressure the ball or fall back in support on defense? Work ethic – having the energy and initiative to display good discipline. The manner in which players execute all of the above topics during a match.

Kelli Swenson
- I believe it’s important to develop strong technical skills and tactical knowledge. It’s essential that players understand the game and think for themselves. As a coach, I think it’s important to adapt the style of play to fit the team’s strengths. I want to set players up for success. Most importantly, it’s my responsibility to create an environment where players are willing to work hard but also have fun and enjoy the game.

- I believe in a methodical and pedagogical approach to coaching that aims to create competitive and soccer-educated teams and players. At every practice and game, I work on a continuous, but flexible, process that aims to help our players develop their knowledge about the game, their skills, and their passion and studying of soccer. I believe that soccer is for all and should be a way to socialize, educate and promote physical and cultural activities.
