Welcome to the BRM Soccer Training Academy (BRMSTA).



Coach Fernando Vacas is in charge of training:
Boys and girls ages 4, 5 and 6 and Boys ages 7-12

Coach Vacas was one of the founders of the BRM back in 1988-89. His coaching experience expands over 40 years. He holds national B and C licenses and has over 55 years of playing experience. He also holds a Bachelors Degree in Engineering (BSEE) from one of the top engineering universities in the country, California State Polytechnic University-Pomona, CA. He values education and always demanded the best effort from his players on the soccer field and off the soccer field, as individuals and as students. Many of his players went on to play college soccer, some receiving scholarships.

His teams have won numerous titles both league championships and tournaments, culminating with the California State Cup in 1993-94. His personal soccer playing accomplishments expand four decades starting in the Los Angeles Semi-Pro league as a 16 years old teenager, establishing the first soccer team at Glendale High School and at Glendale Community College, being Head Coach of the Burbank AYSO Region 254, coaching high school and college teams and being player/coach of the BRM in the Los Angeles Recreation & Parks open adult league. Some of the players of the BRM State Championship team still play together in the over 30 league.

Coach Vacas returned to the BRM earlier this year establishing the BRM Soccer Training Academy and has recently started training boys ages 9-12. If you, parent(s) and player, are interested in top level training, you can send an e-mail to fvacasBRMSTA@hotmail.com for more information.

A word from the coach:

It is with great joy that I come back to the club that I helped establish so long ago and from which I have so many priceless moments and memories. I am ever so proud to see so many of my players become outstanding citizens, and in some cases husbands and fathers. Time sure goes by fast.

My grandchildren are bringing me back to what I love, SOCCER. But this time around it is going to be better than before. How you ask, by establishing the best training program. I have a lot of soccer knowledge. How you ask, because I'm old (but young enough to be training toe-to-toe with the kids) and soccer has been my life and passion. Also, you must remember that I am an engineer, I love to analyze everything to the nth degree. My vast knowledge of soccer is a proven fact. So what are my goals, well soccer wise, eventually I will be looking for a National Championship this time around. But most important, to give more children the opportunity to excel in and out of the soccer field.

If you are interested send me and e-mail and tell me what your goals are. For players 4-6 it is important to be ready to come out and have a lot of fun while learning soccer. Players 7-12 you will need desire and determination to train and improve. If you just want to kick a soccer ball, please do not apply. This is not for casual players or parents, AYSO is an excellent organization for recreational soccer. I'm looking for CHAMPIONS in and off the field. That means that if you are not a good student then also, please do not apply. See you on the field. Be ready, as in life, to work hard and try to do your best, and learn from your accomplishments and your mistakes.
