Hello, I want to take this opportunity to tell you a few things about McBride’s Attacking Soccer Academy. I have had the great fortune to play soccer professionally for the last 17 years. During my time I have been blessed to be a part of some special teams and be influenced by some great coaches. Grasping the knowledge they had and also self-assessing was a great way to keep on progressing in my career. While I was in England, at Everton and Fulham FC, I realized that there were some major differences in how they train compared to how we train in the USA. There is an emphasis on repetition in front of goal, allowing them to feel more comfortable and clinical inside the box.

There are five main emphases that I plan to teach to all the players who train with me:

•Thought Processing (at pace)

• Dynamic Movement

• Technique

• Heading (inside/outside the box)

• Pure Shooting
