TRAINING PHILOSOPHY

Modern soccer values players who can think, adapt, and execute under pressure in any situation. At SoccerKim Solutions, training is built around that reality.

1. Train Under Pressure

Players develop in high-intensity, game-real environments where time, space, and decision-making are constantly challenged. Technical execution is always trained under pressure to ensure it transfers directly to match performance.

2. embrace disComfort

Sessions are designed to push players beyond comfort, building composure in faster, tighter, and more unpredictable game situations. This creates confidence that carries directly into real matches.

3. adaptability

Players are exposed to changing roles, constraints, and scenarios that force them to read the game in real time rather than rely on patterns. This builds true game intelligence and adaptability.

My 
Story

DSC09669-2.jpg

Playing Background

My playing journey has taken me through three different countries, from youth academy football in Portugal to university soccer in Canada and semi-professional football in Sweden.

I’ve competed in Portugal’s youth system with S.C. Braga U-19 team, and played senior football in Sweden with Veberöds AIF and BHSK Malmö in Division 3 Södra Götaland.

At the university level, I played four seasons at Carleton University , a top 3 team in the country, where I developed in a high-performance environment while balancing academic and athletic demands.

Coaching Qualifications

Alongside my playing experience, I’ve developed a formal coaching foundation. I earned my UEFA C Coaching License when I was in Sweden. I also have my Canada Soccer C License, and I currently serve as the Head Coach of the 2012 Boys IModel team at Markham S.C.
