Elvin Rivera Email & Phone Number

I’m based in Atlanta, GA, where I coach and help the next generation of players reach their full potential in football. I previously worked in Miami, FL as the Director of Player Development and Coach at Miami United FC, and I decided to bring my passion for coaching to Atlanta by founding ProjectNext Sports Management Company. Through this company, I’m able to share my knowledge, build connections, and support others on the same path. I’m also the Boys Soccer Director at George Walton Academy, where I continue to foster talent and growth.With over 20 years of playing experience and six years as a professional footballer, my journey began in Virginia, where I played elite and varsity soccer. At 17, I moved to Miami to play semi-professional soccer with Miami Dade, and from there, I made my way to Ireland and Northern Ireland, where I had trials and signed a professional contract. While playing full-time, I balanced my career with earning a Sports Degree, obtaining a US Soccer license, and becoming a Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA) and SafeSport certified.Through ProjectNext FC, I’m dedicated to providing a player-centered environment where athletes can excel in soccer while developing valuable life skills. Our organization is built on the core values of leadership, integrity, empowerment, excellence, community, respect, and accountability. I’m committed to giving back to the sport that has shaped my life and continuing to inspire and support the soccer community in Atlanta.
