I earned the right to play for the NY/NJ MetroStars reserve team coached by Richard Williams and this was an unforgettable life experience.
The details, rapport, and passion Coach demonstrated at every session and match is unparalleled and contagious as he exuded love for the game through his coaching style.
“From the way Coach structured our practices, the intensity he requires from his players, to the ideas and methods he shared in our pre-game chats, it all comes from a wealth of knowledge that he carries from his experiences in the game.”

“I was impressed with Coach Williams’ professionalism, soccer knowledge, and teaching abilities, in the classroom and on the field. As an educator myself, I was amazed with Coach Williams’ depth of knowledge, experience, command of the room, and most importantly, his ability to discuss and demonstrate complex soccer coaching philosophies with ease. Coach Williams provided a “Masterclass” in soccer coaching techniques, and could easily hold his own in comparison to the very best professors at any top-notch university in the country.”
