Mertens, who brings a wealth of experience from his soccer roots in Germany and high-level volleyball, the Foothills 2013 United Girls have shown incredible progress over the past two seasons. With the support of Assistant Coach Seth, the team has grown stronger, welcoming new players and reuniting with returning ones this year.
Coach Tilo says, “Our players joined Foothills because it’s known for the best development, and it’s been amazing to see their growth. We’ve focused on teaching them to share the ball as a team—it’s all of them or nothing. I couldn’t have done it without the incredible support of my Assistant Coach, Seth.”Congratulations to the Foothills 2013 United Girls on their achievements and continued growth!
