Coach Tamera

Tamera Hatfield Tamera Hatfield President/Director of Coaching"I have had the pleasure of working with Tamera for 10 years. In my opinion, having been around the footbal (soccer) coaching business for nineteen years, she is one of the best teachers that I have seen. Not only does she have the playing knowledge, but she has the unique quality of being able to communicate to players from 4yrs to 18yrs old and also with the pros (see Tamera's resume). I cannot recommend Tamera highly enough, she is my ideal coach, technical insight, tactically aware, knowledgeable about patterns of play and the fitness that is required to play the game at the highest level."

"I was searching for a coach to help prepare me for a higher level of soccer play and a friend had recommended Tamera Hatfield to me. I was fortunate enough to be able to travel to Arizona from Wisconsin to spend several days training with Coach Hatfield. Her passion and knowledge of the game of soccer was amazing. She challenged me at both the physical and technical levels. She was motivating and dedicated to helping me improve the skills I had and learn many more. The time I spent with Coach Hatfield was invaluable for a dedicated soccer player. I would absolutely recommend Tamara Hatfield to any player seeking to learn the game of soccer or improve skills they already have or develop their coaching ability as well. Thank you Coach Tamera! " ~ Tiffany MartinArizona Soccer Academy, soccer for all agesprofessional soccer coaching team training private soccer training sessionsSharing the joy of playing soccer with every player. We invite you and your child to join us to experience the Arizona Soccer Academy difference. We believe in cultivating well rounded, technically sound and team spirited players at every age and level.For the serious player iooking for ways to improve his or her game we offer personal training opportunities. We are flexible and willing to accomodate your busy schedule." I cannot tell you how great it has been watching my son (age 5) excel and grow! He has developed a love of soccer because of Coach Tamera! She has motivated my son like no one has ever done before! He has Sensory integration issues and has had trouble focusing, staying in line and following directions. He has made a lot of progress and feels very proud of himself! Coach has made his progress possible and since coordination was somewhat of a problem she has improved his skills tremendously! I was taking him to Occupational therapy for the above mentioned things, but he does not need it anymore! At school he was receiving therapy but test out of it. Coach Tamera has become his friend as well as mine. He loves her and can't wait for soccer! He is waiting at the front door, dressed and ready to go! (I can't explain how hard it has bee to dress him for things before). He never wants to miss it or be late. When it is over he does not want to leave the field! He insists on staying for goal training and wants to do academy training. Recently, he was ready to move up to a new soccer ball. Coach gave him one! He sleeps with it! He has instilled not only the need for training like no other coach done, but also a love for soccer! You will come to depend on her not just to teach your child soccer. (Anybody can do that) but she instills good sportsmanship, great techniques, and a true appreciation for the sport! We love Coach Tamera Hatfield and the AZ Soccer Academy and you will too!! ASA all the way!!From Renate Garcia parent of one fo the students in the academy.(Klaus Peter's Mom) Contact us today to learn more about Arizona Soccer Academy. We would love to help you find the perfect soccer program to meet your child's unique needs.Arizona Soccer Academy Parent and Player Comments
