Meet the Coach

Coach Tara Farmer

Tara Farmer

Head Coach, 15-Tara · Elite Trainer

Coach Tara is one of our Elite Trainers and leads our 15-Tara team. She is a technical coach at heart, with a sharp eye for the small mechanical details that separate a good rep from a great one, and she works with our athletes on positional development, ball control, and reading the game at speed.

Her coaching is detailed and demanding in the best way. She holds a high standard for effort and execution, and she has the patience to break a skill down until it clicks. For our 15-Tara athletes, that means real technical growth in a season built to prepare them for the next level.
