Questions for Madison?
What qualifications you have?
I’m a former Division I athlete from Manhattan College and continued my career at Moravian University. I’ve coached within World Class, focusing heavily on technical skill development — from first touch and dribbling patterns to striking form and movement efficiency. I build structured training plans that create consistent technical habits under pressure.
What is your coaching style?
Fast-paced, vocal, and extremely detail-oriented. I correct body shape, foot placement, and decision-making in the moment. Players don’t just go through drills — they learn how to perfect technique and apply it in realistic scenarios.
What is your coaching experience?
I’ve trained players through private sessions, clinics, and competitive team environments at World Class, working with athletes preparing for ECNL, college-level play, and high-level club competition. My sessions prioritize technical refinement before speed or complexity.
What is your coaching philosophy?
Every player — regardless of position — should be confident with the ball at their feet. I teach athletes to stay calm in tight spaces, use smart touches, scan early, and attack with intent. Technical quality builds confidence — and confidence builds dominance.
Your most notable achievements?
As a player: Division I scholarship, ECNL Final Four, high school captain with statewide honors. As a coach: helping players who once struggled with confidence become technically sharp, composed, and fearless.
Why did you join Penn Prospects?
I joined Penn Prospects because it aligns perfectly with who I am as both a coach and a person. I’ve been through the highs of Division I soccer and the lows of career-changing injuries, and I know firsthand how important it is to have coaches who truly believe in their players. Penn Prospects is more than just a training environment — it’s a place where development is personal, not transactional. I’m here because I want to be part of a culture that doesn’t just create strong players — it creates strong people..
