Why I coach for TKO Premier SC:  I love the game of soccer and feel very lucky to be able to share that love with the kids on my team. I prioritize encouraging youth to have fun, work hard, and develop as individuals both on and off the pitch. I enjoy being surrounded by extremely knowledgeable and supportive coaches and staff at TKO Premier, who help me to cultivate my skills as a coach, leader, and parent.

Fun fact about me:  I ran varsity track at the University Notre Dame 1999-2001. My events were 400m and 800m and I competed in both the indoor and outdoor Big East conference championships in the 400m, 500m, and 4x400m. I am originally from Philadelphia, PA and am a huge Philly sports fan.

Parent Perspective: 

“Coach Erin really challenges and encourages the girls to set high expectations for themselves and supports them throughout the season to meet their own goals. My daughter had a lot of fun this season and is learning a lot. We are very thankful for Coach Erin’s dedication.” 

“I love seeing how Coach Erin encourages the team to work together as one unit. Thank you for teaching them, building them up, while staying positive.”
