"My son James played soccer in the Club's Rep system for many years.  He wasskilled player but was often overlooked because of his size.  Having left the Rep system four years ago, my son was fortunate to find Coach Juan J. Barreto.   Besides being an excellent soccer coach, he ensured the boys were working hard at school, always emphasizing this as a priority.  In Addition, he continued to teach the boys respect for their team mates, coaches, referees and other team players.
Coach Juan encouraged James to follow his dream of being a Student-Athlete in the U.S.
James is currently living his dream of playing soccer at a U.S university.  James worked hard in high school to keep his marks above average.  However, the soccer strategies and methodologies that he learned from Coach Juan is exactly what the coach at his university was looking for.  I would recommend Coach Juan's teaching methods without hesitation".  Thank you.          Michele Randall
