Bart Van Haaren

I started coaching many years ago, the main reason was the ability to stay involved competitively in the sport as my professional playing time was cut short due to injury. It changed as I got older and I started coaching more for the love and respect of the game and sport. – a sport that molded my life and impacted many decisions I made. It taught me life lessons about cooperation, teamwork, caring, and sportsmanship.

Currently, I coach because I still have the desire to pass those lessons and experiences on to the next generation of players and kids that I work with, and to allow young athletes to grow from my experiences in life and the game of soccer.
