What are people saying about Coach Merola?
“I've had the privilege of playing for Tony and he truly addresses all aspects of the game in the principles he has developed. His wealth of coaching experience in the UK and US shows. He connects with players on a personal level, helping individuals and teams improve and to perform in competition whilst making every session enjoyable. From youth grade to the professional player, I highly recommend working with Tony.”
“Tony has an easy manner and an enthusiastic approach that brings out the best in players of all ages and abilities. He is dedicated to developing skills, nurturing talent and sharing his love of football.”
“Myself and Tony have know each other since our Wrexham Football Club days. Tony has a rich history of developing many youngsters which have gone on to be professional footballers. He understands the technical needs of players which provides the platform for them to flourish in the future.”
“Having known Tony for 35 years through footbalI, family and work, I can honestly say his passion for life and our beautiful game is second to none. Seeing him continue to coach in the game after his playing days shows his passion for the game and I was pleased to see him achieve his UEFA A licence through the Welsh FA and take that learning over to the United States. I had no doubt that Tony would go on to be a top coach and would recommend him to anyone who wants to develop within the game.”
“I have know Tony for over 15 years and have always been impressed by his impact on both his programs and on his players. I've witnessed him work at all levels of football and his energy and passion for the game have always shone through.”
