Soccer Club of New Milford

Meet our Spring 2004 Trainers

SCNM is pleased to announce the return of our trainer Paul Cameron and welcome the arrival of our new trainer, Jonny Corbett for the Spring 2004 season. 

Paul Cameron:

Paul is 31 years old from South London, England. Prior to working in the USA he was a Fitness manager for a health club chain in London. He undertook personal training sessions, and group fitness classes such as boxercise, circuit training and indoor studio cycling as well as the daily running of a large club.

Growing up in London, Paul played soccer every day at school and at the local park. He also played school soccer at district / borough level, representing Wandsworth borough in competitions such as the London youth games. In his teens, Paul played amateur soccer and went on to sign for his local semi-pro team, Tooting and Mitcham at the age of 21.  He played for Tooting and Mitcham for 2 years before deciding just to play for fun.  Paul then went on to play for several successful amateur teams over the next 5 years, winning various league and cup trophies including the London FA senior cup.

He currently holds the English Football Association’s Leaders and Preliminary awards (UEFA ‘B’ equivalent), as well as various fitness training and health club management qualifications.

The Major League Soccer Camps company motto is: “To lift people beyond their vision of capability”, and this is something Paul strives to achieve through quality soccer coaching and coach education. 

The 1^st time Paul came to New Milford was in the Fall of 2001 and he enjoyed it so much he keeps coming back! As well as this being his 6^th season here in the last 3-1/2 years as a youth soccer coach, Paul is also the current New Milford high school boys Varsity soccer head coach.

Paul looks forward to another fun-packed year in America, and welcomes any questions queries or comments you may have.  He can be contacted via email at: cameronsw12@hotmail.com, or you can submit a question to our “Ask the pro’s” link on the Soccer Club of New Milford website.  Best wishes from Paul Cameron.

We welcome Paul's return!

Jonny Corbett:

Jonny Corbett is our new MLS trainer from Market Harborough, Leicestershire, England.   He is 21 years old.   He moved to England from Northern Ireland in early 2003.  Most recently he worked as a lifeguard in his town.

Jonny played soccer since a very young age.  He played for a local team called Cullybackey Blues until he was 16.  He won numerous leagues and cup trophies and very rarely finished a season with no awards.  At the age of 16, Jonny moved up to the third team of his home club Ballymena United.  He played for them until 18 when he left for Manchester, England to attend university.  He continued playing soccer for the university team and won the league every season and the cup twice.

Jonny currently holds the English Football Association Level 2 Coaching Award and the Irish Football Association Teachers Coaching Certificate.  He is still a qualified lifeguard and also a Qualified First-Aider.

This is Jonny’s first season with MLS and as the MLS motto is ‘to lift people beyond their visions of capability’; he is continuously working to uphold this motto as an MLS coach.

Jonny can be contacted through the ‘Ask the pros’ link or by email JADCorbett@aol.com.

We welcome Jonny as our new MLS trainer and look forward to a fun-filled season with him!
