June 2008

Coach: Regan Zachrisson

Current Team: Impact Girls U-13 Black

Coaching Experience: 3 years with Impact (one with the white level, and two with black)

Playing Experience: I played club level soccer for seven years and varsity soccer for four years at Centennial High School in Gresham, Oregon.

Favorite Soccer Teams: I would have to say my Impact team. It has been so gratifying to watch them grow over the last two years and I can't wait to see what is yet to come. And, I can't forget, Real Salt Lake!

Favorite Soccer Player: David Beckham … surprise, surprise!

Most Memorable Soccer Experience(s): Spring 2008 State Cup. Taking my team that was bumped down to division 2 after the fall season, going undefeated in the spring season (10-0-1), and competing and even beating top premier level teams, to just missing the quarter finals by one point. What an accomplishment!!!

Coaching Philosophy: Work hard, play hard, and loving the game while doing it!

Favorite Movie: Eight Seconds…and Hot Shot. (For those of you that don't know it is an 80's soccer movie that highlights Pele and a spoiled amateur soccer player that lives his dream and is humbled by the master himself.)

Favorite Book: Right now, my wedding planning book :

Favorite Food: I love all food!

Special Interests: Soccer of course, football, running, snowboarding, wakeboarding, the outdoors, singing, country dancing, scrapbooking, and spending time with family and friends.

Regan Says: "You gotta' play with your heart!"
