About Coach

Tariq

Originally from Silver Spring, Maryland, I started my coaching career in 2012 at West Virginia University, studying Athletic Coaching Education with a minor in Sport and Exercise Psychology. While attending university I played for the Men’s Club team while also assist coaching with the Women’s Club team. I coached at a local youth soccer club called Mountaineer United SC as an assistant coach and a player coach.


During my time in Seattle, I have previously worked with Washington Youth Soccer, Sounders Pre Academy, UK Elite (Steel Soccer) and Cascade FC; currently I am the head coach for 2 teams at Eastside FC and technical director at Issaquah FC.


I am currently a USSF National 'B' license holder. During my coaching career I have been lucky enough to coach all across the United States, as well as in Portugal, England, and Netherlands in various competitions. 


Fun facts: My parents are from Jamaica, my favorite soccer club is Chelsea FC, and I have a Catahoula Hound named Oscar!
