Earlier this week, over 300 members of our FC Copa family came together for an impactful night centered around the college recruiting journey. Led by FC Copa Vice President and Director of Education, Lori Berman, and FC Copa Founder and President, Roberto Aguas, the night was filled with insight, inspiration, and meaningful conversations about what it takes to reach the next level. From understanding the recruiting process to hearing firsthand experiences, our players and families gained invaluable knowledge.
The highlight of the night was our incredible panel, bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to our players and families. The panel featured four outstanding coaches: Erin Sullivan (Montclair State University & FC Copa Alum), Lenny Armuth (Drew University), Brian Doherty (Kean University), and Matty Berman (Seton Hall Preparatory School & FC Copa Alum). They shared insight into the recruiting process, what coaches are looking for, and how players can best position themselves for opportunities at the next level.
Thank you to all of our players and families who attended and made the night so meaningful, continuing to prioritize their growth and future in taking the next step.
