About Coach Jim
I am a soccer player, coach and soccer league executive.
My playing career included 4-years as a varsity high school player. 10 year premier playing experience with the biggest clubs in Northeast Ohio, including Cleveland United, Excalibur, Cleveland Elite, and Mentor Impact.
I am currently Head Coach of the Madison Monarchs girls club team and former Head Coach of the Madison Mustangs girls club soccer team (where I helped 6 players earn their 4-year Varsity letter awards for Madison High School).
Director of Club Teams on Madison Soccer League Board of Directors. Responsible for scheduling & representative at OHTSL (USClub) bracketing + general meetings.
I help coaches teach essential soccer skills with team trainings & coaches clinics.
The goal of club soccer is to prepare players for high school varsity soccer.
In my 11+ year Club Coaching career, I've taken rec and club level players and turned them in to Varsity High School players. I've accomplished this through focusing on:
Critical skills development
Core, speed & balance muscle strengthening
Helping players learn the game
