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
