Tamera Hatfield [Professional Soccer Coaching / Team Training / Private Sessions]
ARIZONA SOCCER ACADEMY
Committed to Excellence and the Development of Self Esteem in our Youth!
Pro Player Circa 1993
"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.
