Coach Orlando grew up in Florida. He began playing soccer when he was 12 and rapidly gained the love for the sport and all of its teachings. After High School, he went off to college in Orlando, FL and obtained a Criminal Justice degree. There, he began sharing his passion for the sport coaching for the Orlando City Youth Academy, a local High School, Club teams and development programs. In 2015 he moved to North Carolina and started to pursue what he is most passionate about within Soccer Shots, developing character in young minds through soccer, just as someone did for him as a young 7-year-old boy. Coach Orlando and our Soccer Shots North Salt Lake City team are grateful for the opportunity to give back to the community and contribute to shaping young minds in the beautiful area of Salt Lake.
Coach Cameron grew up in West Jordan and played soccer for West Jordan High School. The love for soccer came soon after his dad took him to a Real Salt Lake match when he was 8 years old. Ever since, it is tough to catch him going several hours without playing or having a soccer ball at his feet. Coach Cam loves collecting anything Spider-Man and Star Wars related. In his free time, he watches the Premier League, Anime, and loves to hang out with his family and 3 dogs! Coach Cam can’t wait to meet you on soccer island, and if you see him around, ask him who his favorite soccer team is.

“and super instructors!“
“and Coach Leo is the best coach. He always tries to re-engage kids when their attention may be on something else or if they run off the field. He takes the time to make them feel welcome and comfortable.“
“So patient and sweet! They take the time to include every kid, work with their strengths and work on their weaknesses!“
“We’ve had three different coaches since we started Soccer Shots, and all of them have been great instructors, remembered the kids’ names, and did an excellent job getting all of the kids to participate. We’ve already recommended to several friends“
