Who are the coaches?

Paul Simonis
Coach Paul is an elite tactical expert and professional coach, holding the prestigious UEFA Pro License, the highest coaching qualification in world football. While Paul has reached the pinnacle of European football as a manager in the German Bundesliga and the Dutch Eredivisie, his true coaching foundation lies in 15 years of dedicated youth development at Sparta Rotterdam, one of the most renowned youth academies in the Netherlands.
From 2005 to 2020, Paul specialized in molding the next generation of Dutch talent, serving as Head Coach for age groups ranging from U10 to U19. This deep expertise in youth instruction allowed him to bridge the gap between academy football and the professional stage, eventually leading Go Ahead Eagles to a historic Dutch Cup (KNVB Beker) title in 2025.
Known for his high-intensity style and tactical intelligence, Coach Paul brings a unique perspective to our camp, offering our youth the exact training methods used to develop top-tier professional athletes in Europe
Paul Tonnis Koster
Coach Paul Tonnis Koster is the technical youth coordinator and coach educator for the Royal Netherlands Football Association (KNVB) and holds a UEFA A license. This is his sixth time leading the Dutch National Camp in Hawaii.

What if I can’t make every session?

Will there be opportunity to travel to Holland following the camp?
• In addition to two days of intimate training sessions with these experienced coaches, select players will be identified for travel to the Netherlands in the spring of 2027 to train with and play against select youth academies in the Dutch professional system.
