Your coach
Former pro. Soccer dad. Straight talker.
Co-founder Nico Garcia Lopez trained at top clubs in Buenos Aires, played in Mexico City with the select teams of Atlante and Cruz Azul, and served as a sparring partner for Mexico's youth national teams.
He has trained players for European youth academies and the U.S. Olympic Development Program, and he coaches the Caribbean Select Pro Football team in Playa del Carmen.
From a Pro Path parent
"Before meeting Nico, we traveled every weekend and wondered if it was worth it. Six months later our 12-year-old is more confident, competed against top Mexico academy teams, and caught a scout's eye."Maria R., Caribbean Path parent
