Sept. 10th, San Diego - The renowned USD coaching staff ran our afternoon training session today on the beautiful USD campus.
Head Coach, Seamus McFadden build the USD soccer program from the ground up after arriving in 1979. He coached his 300th win in 2008 and has earned the West Coach Conference Coach of the Year Award a record seven times.
Assistant Coach, Mike Nicholson arrived at USD in 2005 after coaching the UCSD women's team to an NCAA championship.
Assistant Coach, Brian Quinn is a former US National team player, and long time professional soccer player. He is also a former esteemed player and coach with the San Diego Sockers club.
We started with a quick warm up before moving to juggling drills across the field. We played some short-short-long and then moved ahead to crossing and finishing drills before running some 11v11 among our selves.
We knocked out some fitness build ups with the "fitness master", Seamus McFadden before hearing some great closing insight from the coaches which included a story from Coach Quinn about how to and how to not mark Carlos Valderrama.
