Jose-Luis Valdes, BEd’05, McGill women’s Soccer Head Coach

I started as an athlete studying in Education. I got an opportunity to coach with the Martlet soccer team while studying and competing. I grew to love coaching and stayed after graduating as a part-time coach. Eventually I was appointed full-time as the head coach of the program while mentoring the future generation of women coaches.

All this with a unique opportunity to enjoy the full spectrum of what McGill has to offer as I share my everyday moments with student-athletes from every faculty at McGill. I dream that all McGill branches connect and benefit from one another: knowledge, experience and expertise for the greater good, so we can learn and grow.
