Founder & Head Coach

Stanley Alves

Coach Stanley's soccer journey is a testament to his perseverance and skill. His collegiate career showcased remarkable adaptability, starting at Southern New Hampshire University (NCAA Division II), transitioning to Dean College (NJCAA), and culminating at UMass Lowell (NCAA Division I).

Post-college, Stanley's talent continued to shine in Portugal with Sertanense F.C., Sacavenense, and Sintrense — all in the third and second divisions of Portugal at that time. In 2019, he trained and played with both the first and second teams of the New England Revolution, an MLS club.

The following year, he signed with Richmond Kickers in USL League One. His prowess on the field was further recognized in 2022 when he received a contract offer from Loudoun United of the USL Championship.

This diverse experience across every competitive level gives Coach Stanley a unique perspective, making him an invaluable asset to Champions Premier's coaching staff and a living example of the continuous improvement and resilience we aim to instill in every player we train.
