A message from our Director Of Coaching
I wanted to add some insight into this tremendous opportunity for our players.
The two coaches coming in are highly regarded, well-renowned former players in Liga MX. Both bring a decade of professional soccer experience.
- Coach Palencia has over 80 caps for the Mexican National team and captaining and scoring 91 goals for Mexico City's Club Deportivo Cruz Azul, leading them to two championship titles.
- Coach Navia has over 50 caps for the Chilean National team and successful years with America Liga MX.
Both have extensive coaching backgrounds in Mexico, Costa Rica and even Barcelona's famed academy.
- Former Liga MX star and current St. Croix coach Christian Valdez will also be present.
This is a great opportunity for our players to experience high-level coaching and get some valuable insight into the professional soccer environment. If you have any questions about the coaches, session, or activities, please let me know.
We look forward to seeing you there. Please let us know if you have any questions.
