• A minimum of two years of soccer coaching experience.
• Strong understanding of player development, age-appropriate training methods, and session organization.
• Demonstrated ability to learn, implement, and design soccer curricula and session plans.
• Excellent leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills.
• Ability to evaluate coaches objectively and provide clear, constructive feedback.
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
• Ability to make sound decisions and operate efficiently under pressure.
• Professional and confident when communicating with coaches, parents, club officials, and board members.
