About Owner/Coach Juan

Juan Ocampo

Owner/Coach

About Me:

I have been coaching for the last 14 years. It started as a way to give back to the younger kids and it turned into a career & passion. Over the years, I have gotten the opportunity to work with some of the most talented players in the North East (NJ, NY, and PA). I am an A-licensed coach/trainer, with a BA in Exercise & Physical Science and a minor in Nutrition, along with NASM personal trainer certification to mention a few.

Why I love it

I love being able to provide the best opportunity for our athletes to improve on and off the field. By, combining all my knowledge on and off the field it has allowed me to create an environment filled with energetic individuals looking to accomplish the same goals & constant improvement. I have gotten the pleasure of training boys and girls that form part of multiple national teams, professional players, and many more collegiate athletes. My mission is to give the best opportunity for those with the want to play at the highest level by helping them form their Mind, Body, and Spirit.

About Coach Dan

Dan Ocampo

Coach

About Me:

Hi, I’m Coach Dan Ocampo, a passionate, dedicated youth soccer coach with 10 years of experience helping players grow on and off the field. I’ve always seen myself as a teacher first. When the opportunity arose to turn that calling into coaching, I took it and I’ve never looked back. Nothing motivates me more than watching kids progress, seeing a new move click, a decision made faster, a teammate encouraged. I’m committed to developing the whole athlete: strong fundamentals, stronger mindset.

What I focus on

  • Player development that’s age-appropriate, fun, and challenging

  • Clear, teachable progressions for technique, tactics, and decision-making

  • Mental growth—confidence, resilience, and leadership

  • Physical development—speed, agility, balance, and injury-smart fitness

Chris Sabogal

Coach

About Me:

I’ve been coaching for almost 3 years. I’ve always been passionate about working in something you love and my passion for the game drove me to pursue coaching while still playing. Though I’ve been coaching for a short time, Ive managed to pick up my U.S soccer grassroots licenses along with a New Jersey F license and am in the process of achieving my U.S soccer C license. My ultimate goal is to motivate these kids and push them to their potential the same way coaches, Juan and Dan did to me over the years.
