MEET YOUR COACH
The Person Behind the Players.
I’m Dallas Sikes Aminzadeh, founder of Sikes Soccer, and soccer has been my life for as long as I can remember. After spending over a decade competing, training, and learning the game at the highest levels around the world, I’ve seen firsthand how soccer teaches more than just skills.
I started Sikes Soccer to give kids the head start I wished I had growing up. Every lesson we teach comes from experiences—both on and off the field that we all can relate to. My goal is simple: to help players build confidence, resilience, and teamwork, so they leave our program not just better athletes, but stronger individuals.
I believe kids deserve more than drills and competition. They deserve a mentor. They deserve a supportive environment. They deserve a program that invests in their growth as people, not just as players.
My Soccer Journey
My soccer journey began in Washington, D.C., where I developed through the D.C. United Academy, one of the nation’s top youth training programs.
That foundation led me to compete at the Division 1 level at the University of Central Florida (UCF), where I challenged myself against elite collegiate players and grew both technically and mentally.
MY PROFESSIONAL CAREER
My professional career took me across the globe:
-
Brazil – Fluminense (Série A) Playing in Brazil taught me how to stay creative under pressure and trust my instincts no matter the moment.
-
Luxembourg – First Division Competing in Europe showed me the importance of discipline and consistency—small daily habits create big results.
-
Germany Germany taught me the value of structure, focus, and doing the little things right every single day.
Through these experiences, soccer taught me lessons that shaped who I am today—communication, discipline, humility, handling pressure, teamwork, and and embracing adversity. These lessons influence me daily, both on and off the field.
I created Sikes Soccer to make a lasting positive impact on the next generation by instilling core values that help them succeed long after they leave the field. Through fun, engaging soccer activities, I aim to empower children to build confidence, develop life skills, and discover the joy of learning through the game of Soccer.
