Ryan Vistacoin

Lead Coach

Hi I’m Ryan, currently the Head Coach at Braywick, I’ve been with Little Kickers for more than 5 years now. I’ve been playing football all my life, competitively at men’s level. I enjoy the warm community at Little Kickers and helping the kids grow a love for football. My future ambition with little kickers is not only to develop football in Maidenhead but to also increase the confidence of young kids playing sport in a group environment.

My favourite part of Little Kickers is giving the kids the opportunity to bring out their confidence and sharpen their skills for the future, making it both fun and rewarding. Overall, Little Kickers has and will continue to give me a strong passion for football and the coaching aspect of it.
