Meet The Coaches

Hey Soccer Superstars, I’m Coach Fernando! I have played soccer since I was four years old, I have been a soccer referee for 7 years and I continue to play recreationally in two adult leagues. A little bit about me outside of soccer – I love Marvel (Spiderman is my favorite superhero!), dinosaurs, cool cars, and currently, one of my favorite movies is Encanto! I’m a kid at heart, and have enjoyed every moment with you and your little ones! I can’t wait to have more fun on Soccer Island!

Hi Soccer Friends, my name is Coach Nick and I have been part of Soccer Shots since the Summer of 2019. I played soccer all my life up until high school where I played at Eastern. I still stay active by playing soccer and skateboarding with my friends when I can. I also enjoy playing some video games and love the Marvel Universe. I look forward to getting out on Soccer Island with you and your little ones.

Hello my name is Coach Cat and I have been a part of Soccer Shots since Spring of 2018. I was born and raised in Clayton NJ, but live in Glassboro now with my roommate and my furry children Maximus. I love soccer and played 4 years in high school where I played goalie and won 1st team Tri-County Conference my Senior year. I went to college in South Carolina and am a huge South Carolina Football fan. I love watching sports of any kind and am an avid Philly sports fans. Tacos are my favorite food and I love any Will Ferrell movie (Step Brothers or Semi-Pro as favorites). I enjoy spending time with friends. My favorite Soccer Shot move to teach is goalie (Week 8 Classic). I look forward to teaching your child this season.

Hello! My name is Coach Pete, and I am new to soccer shots with Winter 2023 being my very first season! I was born and raised in Philadelphia but now live in Woodbury Heights with my wife, daughter and two puppies. I’ve played soccer all my life and really enjoy being around the game helping the next generation grow. My favorite move is the pull back. I can’t wait to see all my soccer friend’s next season!

Hi Soccer Friends! I’m coach Danielle and am so excited to be on the Soccer Shots team. It is truly my pleasure to be working with you and your family. I have been working with kids for 15 years and just love it! I had the pleasure to coach recreation soccer prior to working for soccer shots. My passion for children comes from their energy, excitement and willingness to grow on the field. There is nothing more fulfilling than watching each child grow and helping each one of them build their confidence through our Soccer Shots program. I am a mother of 3 children, 2 of which have participated in the program with other coaches. I also enjoy DIY projects, painting, working with my hands and being creative. I am proud to be a part of this program and can’t wait to see you on Soccer Island!

Hi! My name is Coach Amy. I’m from Mantua Township and played soccer on their township team for two years. As a child I did competitive dance, which gave me a passion for exercise. I go to Rowan College of South Jersey as an education major. I have a passion for teaching and it truly makes me happy to see the children grow throughout the season. My hobbies are running, sewing, and training my dog. My dog’s name is Camden, she’s a rescue pit bull from the streets in Camden. She’s super smart and very loving. I learned how to sew in high school, then taught kids to sew for about 6 months. Although I don’t have that much experience with soccer, I have a talent for working with kids! My favorite soccer move is the pull back because for our youngest players it can be tricky at first but its super rewarding when they get it down, I can’t wait to see your kids on the field!

Greetings! My name is Coach Jose and I’ve been with Soccer Shots since the Spring of 2021. I have played soccer for as long as I can remember. I currently play at RCSJ and I am majoring in communications. I love to play video games and as you guessed it my favorite is fifa. I also like to go hiking and spend time with my two favorite dogs; Rio and Luna. My favorite soccer move is the Zig Zag!! I can’t wait to get to meet everyone of you so we can have a blast on soccer island!

Hi soccer friends! My name is Coach Ally and Fall of 2022 is my first season with Soccer Shots! Although this is my first time coaching, I have previous experience playing soccer for about 12 years for Burlington Township. I am a junior at Rowan University studying Law & Justice studies with minors in Psychology and International Studies. In the near future I hope to attend law school. Being a soccer shots coach was intriguing to me not only because I missed the sport, but I also wanted the ability to share my love for soccer with all the kids. Although I haven’t played soccer in a few years, I keep an active lifestyle by running, lifting weights, or snowboarding. My favorite Disney character is Olaf, and my favorite movie is either Encanto or Frozen! I’m super excited for this season and I can’t wait to see you out there on soccer island!

Outside of school and soccer I enjoy hanging out with my friends and playing video games. I can’t wait to have a fun time with everyone on soccer island!
