Soccer Coach Denver Newton

DENVER NEWTON, Soccer Coach

About his name, Denver playfully says he has, “A film star name without the fame. The only fame I have is around here.” Originally from Scotland, the owner and founder of Euro Soccer USA which started in 2010, speaks with a delightful Scottish brogue. Back home, he played “football” in the lower leagues and worked part time in the family business before following his dream to come to the States. “I came to America on holiday when I was nine-years-old and I always wanted to move here.” He gushes about the California climate. “Everyone’s happy here! You get up every day, it’s sunny. You go out and you coach kids on the field – I still pinch myself! Right now [back in Scotland] it’s probably 5 degrees Celsius [41 degrees Fahrenheit], windy and miserable. Everybody’s always complaining.” Though Denver himself didn’t start playing soccer until he was five, he coaches kids as young as 18 months. “That wasn’t my choice. The parents were begging me and I finally said ‘Okay, but you come on the field with your kid.’” Denver, his Irish wife Tara, and their two kids currently live in the Fountain Park area of Playa Vista.
