 Roberto "Beto" Dos Santos
Contact Coach Santos
Beto is a Brazilian native who grew up playing soccer and signed his first professional contract at the age of 16 (Club America-Mexico). After several years playing professionally in Brazil and Mexico, Beto came to the United States to embark on an award winning career in the CISL (Continental Indoor Soccer League) -- playing for Los Angeles, Wichita, Dallas and Houston, and winning a championship ring in the process.
Turning to coaching after 21 years of professional play, Beto was invited by the United States Soccer Federation to help select players for the U.S. National Team. In Houston, he coached for the Olympic Development Program (ODP) state team before training several championship club teams in Texas.
As a nationally licensed soccer coach, Beto dos Santos is not only our Director of Training but he is also the Girls Varsity soccer coach at the Windward School in West Los Angeles.
Beto believes in teaching respect for one another both on and off the pitch as well as a disciplined work ethic that, combined, will help provide a strong foundation which will carry them well into adulthood.
