DRAGO JAHA
Coach Drago began his pro soccer career at age 17 in Belgrade, Yugoslavia (today Serbia). After years with the Red Star Belgrade team, he was drafted by FC Ruoan, a 1st division pro team in France. Prior to coming to the US in 1980, Drago was with Panahikel in Athens, Greece, one of Europe’s most competitive pro teams. In the US, he played with the San Diego Sockers, Tulsa Tornadoes, Detroit Rockets, Rochester Lances, NASL and Columbus Capitals. He spent the 1997 season as a head coach of the Columbus Invaders in the National Professional Soccer League (NPSL). Drago owes the foundation of his teaching skills to his rich European career where he learned instructional techniques from some of the greatest coaches in Germany, France, Belgium, England and Yugoslavia.
MILOS BAJIC
After a successful professional career in Europe, Milos was fortunate enough to earn a full athletic scholarship at Judson University (Elgin, IL). While there, he played under the most successful coach in NAIA history, Mr. Steve Burke. He won numerous division titles and made it to the National Championship Tournament twice. Needless to say, this was the most rewarding time of his life and all these great experiences were possible thanks to the game that he loves so much. When Milos graduated from college, he transitioned from playing soccer to coaching youth soccer. Milos has been the youth soccer coach since 2006 and holds both USSF & UEFA youth coaching licenses.
