Philosophy
Faculty
Our soccer coaching staff is committed to providing each student-athlete with the opportunity to reach his goals as a player. We teach an innovative possession philosophy that focuses on playing out from the back, playing through the lines, and creating scoring opportunities. In the defensive stage, our goal is to win the ball back as quickly as possible, while defending in an organized and precise way. We allow players to play a variety of positions on the field, giving them the freedom to be creative, and develop as student-athletes. Our ultimate goal is to place these young men in the best position to succeed at Trinity-Pawling and beyond, both on and off the soccer field.
history Trinity-Pawling soccer has a strong tradition of developing student-athletes to compete in a high-level league, as well as play at the next level.
