Super Soccer Stars is an American youth soccer development program active in the metropolitan areas of New York City, Los Angeles, Boston, Miami, and Chicago. The organization was founded in 2000 by Argentine native Gustavo Szulansky. English footballer Mark Wilson, formerly of Manchester United, is the program's director of coaches. ==Overview== Gustavo Szulansky, a native of Argentina who moved to New York City in the 1980s, founded Super Soccer Stars in 2000. The impetus to establish the organization came the year before when Szulansky offered to assist with his seven-year-old son's youth soccer team and found that the children did not know the basic fundamentals of the sport. In his view, "the coaches and instructors lacked a sincere interest in their students and that kids were left unprepared to play in a real soccer game." He thought he "could do it better with more care, affection, and professionalism." Today, the program holds 1,400 weekly classes in seven states, and is active in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Boston, Los Angeles, San Diego, Miami, and Chicago. In the New York metropolitan area alone, 10,000 players participate in the program weekly. In 2014 Super Soccer Stars will also be expanding to Washington D.C.〔 The company employs around 30 full-time staffers, and has over 300 coaches, many of whom work part-time.〔 English footballer Mark Wilson, formerly of Manchester United, is the program's director of coaches.〔 Super Soccer Stars's flagship facility in the Upper West Side of Manhattan has an indoor turf field. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Super Soccer Stars」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
