Player of the Month – November 2024

Jackson
When I began coaching Jackson, it was clear right away that he was a fiercely competitive player. His leg strength during kicks is truly impressive and watching him control the ball while fending off defenders is a sight to behold. I genuinely believe that Jackson has a bright future in soccer. He’s incredibly open to feedback and improvement, and it’s rewarding to witness his ongoing development in the sport!
Jackson is one of the top forwards in our club and plays for our Colorado Foothills SC U11 team. One of the highlights for me is seeing him score a goal. His celebrations might be similar each time, but the sheer joy that lights up his face as he races back to midfield, arms by his sides as if he’s flying, is something special. In one indoor game, I was fortunate enough to see him score eight times! His quick turns and precision shots make him a formidable presence for opposing goalkeepers.
Jackson consistently shows up for almost every training session and even attended camps over the summer to hone his skills further. He embodies what it means to be a great team player and is an absolute joy to coach.
