September 2007

Coach: Peter Tesch

Current Team: Utah Rush Swoosh 90 boys, Head Coach/Trainer for Utah Rush Girls U-9 Bantam program

Coaching Experience: USSF National "D" license. I have been coaching youth soccer for 12 years at the recreation and competitive levels.

Playing Experience: I played club level at Rick's College (when they still had a program).

Favorite Soccer Teams: F.C. Barcelona

Favorite Soccer Players: Ronaldinho and Carles Puyol

Most Memorable Soccer Experiences: When I worked my way up to the Rick's College first team and got my named called to go onto the pitch. Also, seeing my children love the game and helping to make their teammates better players.

Coaching Philosophy: Make everyone one around you better both on and off the pitch. Train hard and you will be successful. You can't control what has happened but can strive to make the "now" your best play.

Favorite Movie: This is Spinal Tap

Favorite Book: Quiet Strength by Tony Dungy

Favorite Foods: Spanish Paella. I make a "killer" Paella.

Special Interests: I'm a family guy and spend my time with my family when not at a game. Being a "soci" (member) of F.C. Barcelona, my interests lie in their past, present and future. Being better than Real Madrid…….PRICELESS.

Peter Says: "Opportunities will come, now what will you do with them? Never underestimate what you are capable of dreaming and accomplishing. With heart and mind set on the job, you can achieve anything."
