Coach's Comments
Cecilia is an extremely young player and as a 2026 she already has a great foundation to continue to build and develop from. She is an incredibly hard worker and puts in her best effort in every drill and in every game. It's exciting to see such a young player to have the passion that she does and is starting to think about the prospect of playing college soccer. This tells me she is thoughtful and is passionate about the game!
Confidence - Confidence is a very challenging area to develop. One tip I would give to develop this further is to continue going to camps like these, ask your coach for guest playing opportunities where you are exposed to players you've never played with and to a coach who may have different styles, philosophies, and language.
Communication - This pairs with confidence. Being one of the youngest players, environments like these can be difficult as mentioned up above but really can just be intimidating in general. One tip I'll offer is to think about the basic things you would need to communicate. One great start is first providing information on your pass. I'll elaborate more on this in the oral portion.
Strength - As a young player, it is important to start to develop PERFORMANCE areas of your game. It does not surprise me that "strength" is in my opinion an opportunity for development. Developing this area will allow you to be more competitive in games and allow you to spend more time on your feet than on the ground! Seek a professional sports performance trainer, facility, coach, advisor, if your club does not already offer something like this. Being exposed to new movements and performing that movement with a bit of weight can help tremendously in your development. This is an area that will need to be improved as you head into a college environment. Consistency is key!
