A new challenge awaits. For Kellington Boddie, the challenge is something he’s been working towards since he was first hired with the club as a Regional Development School Coordinator. Now in a new role as the Atlanta United Academy U-12 coach, Boddie will take what he’s learned while working with RDS players and apply it to this next step in his career. For Boddie, building relationships with players is paramount to his success as a coach.
“The players are going to be around the parents more than they’re going to be around me, so building a good rapport with the players and finding a good balance with the parents makes my job easier,” Boddie explained.
