Hey everyone, I'm Tad — and I’m truly excited you’re here! This community was born out of a simple moment: A dad stepping onto the field with no experience, just a desire to make sure his daughter’s first soccer game wasn’t canceled. Since then, my journey through rec leagues, competitive teams, club leadership, and grassroots coaching has taught me one big thing: Soccer is better when we share what we know. Whether you’ve been coaching for 20 years, or you’re wondering how to run your very first practice without losing every ball in the parking lot — you belong here. This is a space for coaches of all levels to: - Ask questions without fear - Share ideas without ego - Learn! In every way possible - Make lifelong connections with other coaches - Grow the beautiful game together It’s not about being perfect, it's about showing up, learning together, and lifting each other (and our players) to be their best. Every practice, every game, every season. Here’s how you can jump in right away. In the Intro Group chat: ⚽ Introduce yourself — tell us your coaching story, no matter how new or crazy it sounds! ⚽ Share a win, a challenge, or a favorite practice or drill — we can all learn from each other. ⚽ Look for ways to give back — even a simple word of encouragement can change someone’s day. You’ve joined more than just a group — you’re stepping onto a team that believes coaching is bigger than wins and losses, it's about impact, relationships, and a whole lot of love for the game. I’m honored to have you here. Let’s get started — the pitch is waiting. Welcome to the Fútbol Coaches Network. Let’s build something special together. ⚽💛 Tad "Be curious, not judgmental.
