MLS Camps coach biography

Rachid Louali

Hometown: Southampton, England

Age: 21

Education: GCSE: 11 above 'C' (Bellemoor School, Southampton); A Level: 2 A Levels & 2 AS Levels (Tauntons' College, Southampton); Degree: BSc Sports Science (Brunel University, London)

Coaching qualifications: FA Coaching Level 1; First Aid; Child Protection

Coaching experience: The majority of my coaching experienced has been carried out with MLS Camps in the USA. So far I have coached players with an age range of 3-12 but I get most satisfaction from distributing my knowledge at a higher level where technical and tactical attributes are more desired.

Playing Experience: I have experienced soccer in a number of countries including the United Arab Emirates, Canada, and England. The most productive experiences occurred in England where I began to play for 1st teams and secondary school, college and briefly for Brunel University. Alongside this I competed weekly for a variety of teams of high standard, where games occurred at least twice a week. Overall I truly enjoy playing soccer due to its tactics and intensity.

Background and Aspirations: Currently I live in Southampton, England, and have just finished completing my BSc degree in Sports & Exercise Science at Brunel University of West London. For the future I plan to gain experience in my field, which incorporates coaching, physical conditioning, or a combination within sport. This will hopefully be carried out abroad in countries such as France, U.A.E and the United States of America. Alternatively enrolling in a Masters in Sports Science may also become an option before working.

Off the field: Along with my love for soccer, both playing and coaching, I enjoy music of different genres as well as reading, particularly in my field of sport. Socializing is also a dominating part of my life where I can relax and appreciate the company of my friends and family. Apart from soccer, I train for some athletics events but more frequently manage to train at my local gym a number of times a week.
