I want to share a moment of gratitude and momentum with this community. I’ve received a verbal confirmation that I will be taking on a team within LAFC SOCAL ACADEMY. Final details are still being finalized, but this is a real opportunity that is actively moving forward. This represents a major step in my coaching career and aligns with the direction I’ve been intentionally working toward. Being developed under experienced directors, operating inside a professional academy environment, and continuing my education with my upcoming USSF C License is exactly where growth accelerates. What matters most is this: Everything I learn, sharpen, and experience at the academy level directly raises the standard of coaching, structure, and development inside Elite Soccer Academy. I’m grateful for the trust this community continues to place in me. The work stays the same. The standards go up. And we keep building, together. More details soon. Let’s keep pushing. ⚽🔥 — Coach Jessie

Hi I'm Oscar and I've been playing for 9 months. I currently play for the Ayso Spring Season A team. My goals for this sport is to climb up the levels and see how far I could go. The next step for me is hopefully getting into a club(hopefully ecnl). As of now I have played all of the positions and I like to play mostly as an attacker or a midfielder. My goals for 2026 is to improve on my passing, control and strength.

Starting in 2026, Elite Soccer Academy training will officially evolve with a stronger focus on cognitive development. This means we’re not just training feet anymore. We’re training the brain behind the feet. Straight from Germany! 🇩🇪 We’ll be integrating RESWITCH, a proven training tool designed to improve: - Game awareness - Faster decision-making - Reaction speed - Focus under pressure Young players often struggle not because they lack skill, but because the game moves too fast mentally. RESWITCH helps train players to read situations quicker, make confident decisions, and act instantly, all while keeping sessions engaging and fun. The biggest benefits for younger players: - Better understanding of the game at an earlier age - Improved confidence on the ball - Faster learning without overloading them physically - More enjoyable, challenging sessions that keep them motivated This is not screen-based training. It’s on-field, movement-based, and age-appropriate, seamlessly built into our normal sessions. Our goal has always been simple: Develop smarter players, not just harder workers. This upgrade helps us do exactly that. More details will be shared as we approach 2026, but we’re excited about the long-term impact this will have on your child’s development. — Elite Soccer Academy 24
