Coaching at 16

My passion for soccer began in first grade, playing in local recreational leagues where I developed a love for the game, learned the importance of teamwork, and built a strong foundation in soccer fundamentals.

As my skills and dedication grew, I progressed into more competitive soccer programs, advancing to the level of club soccer with organizations such as FC Dayton. Through years of training, practices, and competitive matches, I have developed a deeper understanding of the game, including technical skills, positioning, strategy, communication, and sportsmanship.

Now, at 16 years old, I am excited to share my knowledge and enthusiasm with the next generation of young players. My coaching approach focuses on helping children build confidence, develop strong fundamentals, understand teamwork, and, most importantly, have fun playing soccer.

Confidence

Strong fundamentals

Teamwork

Fun

My goal is to be a positive role model and mentor, helping young athletes develop their skills and the same lifelong appreciation for soccer that began for me in first grade.— Coach Jackson

Why a 16-year-old coach?

Kids Learn Fastest From a Player They Look Up To.

Young players will run through a wall for an older kid who can do the moves they've only seen on TV. Jackson is close enough in age to make every lesson fun — and far enough along to show them exactly how it's done.

He started where they are, kicking a ball around the yard with friends. Six years of year-round team soccer later, he has the footwork, the engine and the game sense to teach the basics properly and push players who are ready for more.

More touches. More confidence. More fun.
