Sam McKay Private Soccer Coach

About Me:

With a few years of experience as a private soccer coach, I take pride in coaching players of varying abilities and ages. Soccer has been a passion of mine since my childhood, which led me to play for the Men's Soccer Team with a scholarship at Biola University, where I graduated from. Additionally, I coached soccer for SF Glens FC while attending the Academy of Art University.

Coaching Approach:

My coaching style is individualized to cater to the specific needs and required skill set of my players. Having analyzed the game for over two decades, I offer insightful guidance to enhance various aspects of their techniques. During the sessions, I prioritize making the sessions engaging for the players to learn at their best. I am actively involved during the practices to provide a learning-by-seeing and learning-by-doing approach to benefit more students.

Accomplishments:

In 2018, I became second-team NCCAA All-American, named to All-PacWest First Team, and PacWest Defender of the Week on Oct 2. During that season, I played 16 times and scored four goals, including three game-winning goals. In 2017, I became Biola's 4th leading scorer while playing as a center back, scoring 4 goals and registering 1 assist. I was also voted as the MVP for Biola Men's Soccer Team that same year, playing for 1,562 minutes.
