In this episode, I sit down with Rod Underwood—a highly respected soccer coach, educator, and leader in player development with experience spanning youth, collegiate, and professional environments.

Rod is widely known for his work as a Technical Director and his commitment to developing not just skilled players, but thoughtful, adaptable, and resilient athletes. With a background that includes coaching in Major League Soccer academies and leading curriculum development across clubs, he brings a systems-level perspective to how players are trained, supported, and challenged.

This episode is for coaches, athletes, and parents who want to better understand the “why” behind development—and how to create environments where players don’t just perform, but evolve.
