16 Year Old Joel Freestyling - Believe in it® Athlete Spotlight
Jared Montz
16 year old Joel Fruit is this week's Believe in it® Athlete spotlight! Joel is a player and freestyler from Saipan; an island in the Northern Pacific Ocean. He plays for Paire FC.
A few weeks ago he asked me to check out his freestyle video. He said, "I'm not much of a freestyler but I had fun making it anyway."
Enjoy his video! I think you will see he is being modest because he is REALLY GOOD!
Keep it up Joel!
Pics & Video - Gilbert, Iowa OSA Soccer Clinic
Jared Montz
Last week I was in Gilbert, Iowa for our OSA Soccer Clinic there. The weather was so NICE and I had a great time! I even got to drive a 1967 Scout 800 truck!
Our goal at our OSA Soccer Camps and Clinics is to make better players. Our mission is to inspire athletes that if you Believe in it® and back that up with hard work, anything in life is possible.
I'm confident we achieved our goal of making better players. That only happened because the players worked hard, stayed positive and wanted to improve. Credit to them for making it happen! They are Believe in it® Athletes.

James Murray Improves Every Session - Believe in it® Athlete Spotlight
Jared Montz
14 year old James Murray from Australia is this week's Believe in it® Athlete spotlight! James plays for Balcatta and his coach, Denis Coleman, nominated him.
Coach Coleman said....
"James has been training as hard as he could and watching as many OSA videos as possible in preseason to pursue his first season of major club football/soccer.
James isn't one of those players that people think stink. Just because he only started this year does mean he is not an incredible player. In his first 3 games as a right wing he scored 4 goals for a division 2 under 14's side. James dreams big on becoming a professional soccer player. At the age of 17-22 he plans to head to USA or England to go for as many tryouts as possible in the MLS, BPL or any of the the 3 FL leagues also in England. I think James should be scouted because he is a young talent with a huge potential.
The Online Soccer Academy has helped young James train incredibly on his own when he is not at his team training. I see him improving every session step by step. He is incredibly fast, a great dribbler and has a venomous shot. I think the world better watch out because James has got the biggest potential of a player i have coached."
Congrats James! Keep working hard to improve!
