More About David

Key Successes to Date: I believe all youth coaches will say that seeing players that you have worked with go on to fulfill their potential are key successful moments. I would also say as a coach educators, seeing coaches progress through their certification and grow as coaches, are also key successful moments. Because like players, you can see their genuine appreciation for helping guide them through this process.
Most Memorable Soccer Moment: I always wanted to coach in continental Europe, so Joining CFR 1907 Cluj was a special moment for me.
Favourite Player: When I was young, Kevin Keegan, now CR7, but Sebastian Berhalter is quickly becoming new favourite player
What you enjoy doing outside of soccer: I’ve enjoyed Fly Fishing since I was young. I taught my wife Sandra to fly fish two years ago and it’s a great way to enjoy a day off together. I also enjoy cooking.
