Hello ALL,

My name is Erin Derenick and I’m the head coach for our 2012 Boys Dynamite Team. I have had the pleasure of coaching this great group of players for 2 years now and we are always looking to expand our family with players who are hardworking and play with heart. This will be my 7th year coaching soccer. I have coached with Jarrettsville Parks & Rec soccer program, Parks, North Harford Parks & Rec soccer program & Rec All Star Team and Northern Elite Soccer Club. My soccer background includes playing from preschool through high school, LIJSL Travel/Select, ODP (Eastern NY), college and presently, as well as working as a FIFA referee and LIJSL travel team trainer when I lived in Long Island. In addition, I'm a Physical Therapist working for HCPS and private practice. I enjoy seeing kids develop as a player, teammate and person. I believe development not only should include soccer skills, but also focusing on good physical and mental health.

My coaching strategies:

*Fundamentals
*Attack as a Unit
*Pressure, Cover, Balance Defense
*Keep the FUN in soccer!

Emphasis on Sportsmanship focusing on the 5R’s:

How you know if you have been coached by Coach Erin

*You know my favorite shape....TRIANGLE

*“Do I care if you made a mistake, no! I care if you don’t hustle!”

*“Do your best and play with heart!”
