Passion for the Game: My Soccer Story
I’m Elvin Rivera an experienced coach and Professional Player. I fortunately got to train and study at the best football academy in Northern Ireland, while playing professionally with Larne FC at the same time. I was blessed to start just like any other player, going from the lowest levels to the highest level. I left school early at the age of 17 to play semi-pro with Miami Dade FC; who managed to give me a home away from home. Learning from the best, training with the best, and just being around the best made me want to instill that passion and community here in the U.S. Fast forward, I am now a Company Owner/Talent Scout/Coach for George Walton Academy and ProjectNext FC. This allows me to develop the next generation and help them prepare for their next level. Whether that’s by giving opportunities to showcase in front of college recruiters, Steven Gerrard Academy (Elite soccer college), or in professional trials.
