Jaimie Facchini - Creating More Than Just A Family

Over her seventeen years of coaching soccer, Coach Jaimie has gained an immense amount of experience and drive from her family and her students. “My kids made me want to start coaching” she explained, “and then I fell in love with it and became more serious so I started coaching club soccer and getting higher-level licenses.” This led her to Roosevelt High School and the women’s soccer team. Now in her seventeenth year of coaching, Coach Jaimie continues to be inspired by her team and “all the kids I've coached, to see them years later and have them still say "hi" inspires me to keep coaching. It's building the relationship with the players and hopefully having a positive impact on their lives.” She goes on to speak about the future, “I know that when I get invited to one of my player's weddings, I will have become the coach I want to be because I will have made that much of an impact on a player. But the players are the ones doing all the work, I'm just helping them along the way.”
