FC Highland, Orlando’s newest soccer academy, is proud to announce international soccer player Jeremy Christie as its Director of Coaching. Christie, who made his professional soccer debut in 1999, is the former midfielder for the All Whites, New Zealand’s men’s national soccer team. In 2010, Christie was named in New Zealand’s team to compete in the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

“There is so much talent in Orlando,” says Christie, who follows a ‘better people make better players’ coaching philosophy. “I’m excited to get the opportunity to work with these young players to help them develop and reach their potential as soccer players. Being able to pass on my experience and knowledge to young players and seeing them improve is the most rewarding thing that there is. To be able to guide the direction of the club from a Director of Coaching position is a great honor, and I will do everything I can to make sure the players grow and develop not only on the field but also as people.”

FC Highland, Orlando’s newest soccer academy, prides itself on focusing on player development and team building. As director of coaching, Christie will empower the players by encouraging them to express themselves, play on instinct, and not be afraid of making mistakes.

FC Highland will give every player the opportunity and encouragement to shine as an individual.

“FC Highland is bigger than soccer. Jeremy has been a lifelong mentor to those he has coached,” says Nirav Pandya, father of an FC Highland player. “Jeremy has taught my son that everything you do should be done with respect, honesty, and integrity. He’s not just creating well-rounded players; he’s creating well-rounded people.”
