Today we welcome Justin Vorster, aka boettie, to the studio to talk soccer. Vorster, the nomad, has lived all over the world and has experienced the game in an unique way - growing up and being introduced to the game in Malawi and then living and playing in South Africa (during and post-apartheid) throughout his 20s. Once his playing career came to a close due to injury, Vorster found his way stateside where he coached at various levels in youth programs, college and into the professional game, mostly within the state of Iowa. Justin holds his USSF 'A' License and currently coaches with the Vision Soccer Academy and FC United. He has previously been the Technical Director at Johnston-Urbandale Soccer Club and Assistant Technical Director at West Des Moines Soccer Club. Outside of the youth game, he has also served as an Assistant Coach at Drake University, Head Coach at AIB College, and Head Coach for the Des Moines Menace Women's Professional team. Ol' boet loves a good chat, so sit back, relax, and enjoy the stories!
