Currently Coach Rich is the head coach of our elder sister team the Ajax United Magic 93'. The Magic 93' are the club's second team to ever enter the Ontario Provincial League. He is also the former head coach of the club's first team to compete in that league, the Ajax United Eclipse 89'. In 2003, Coach Rich helped the dedicated Eclipse girls to an OYSL League Runner-up (8 goals against in 18 games) and in 2004 the Eclipse won a silver medal at the illustrious Ontario Summer Games. Over the years Coach Rich has attended many coaching conventions and courses in Canada and the United States honing his soccer coaching skills. Obtaining a NSCAA State Diploma, NSCAA Goalkeeper Diploma, NSCAA Special Topics Diploma, and the English FA Psychology of Soccer Diploma.
"I'm looking forward to the energy and excitement of these U8 girls. At this age they are so porous and have the ability to learn anything. We will provide a fun learning environment that will maintain an attitude that development is number one. It is a known fact in sports psychology that when focus is put on performance and winning, development takes a backseat. The result will come at the appropriate moment." Coach Rich
