coach with the Alliance FC, a soccer
club based out of Grand Rapids.
Originally from Lebanon, he has been
in the United States for over 20

player and fan. He got his start as
a coach when his four young
daughters began playing soccer.
Since that time, he has been very
active in the coaching community.
Over the years,
Hamdi has built a reputation based
on his coaching philosophy that
every player is unique and has
something to contribute. He is

atmosphere where the players are not
afraid of failure, but instead where
they can learn from their mistakes.
He is respectful,
patient, honest, and fair. Parents
attest that not only has Hamdi
taught their daughters the necessary
soccer skills to succeed on the
field, but also the maturity,
confidence, and self-awareness to
help them succeed in life.
Current players
describe him as a dedicated coach
with a “quirky” sense of humor. Both
parents and players agree that Hamdi
is a great coach, excellent role
model, and phenomenal person.
