Adam Smith is the Sporting Director of Central Valley Fuego FC which plays in the United Soccer League (USL) League One – part of the third tier of professional soccer in the United States. Adam has an extensive playing and coaching career that extends all the way back to England where he grew up and his eventual transition to America.

Today, on the Soccer Chaplains United podcast, From the Touchline, in part two, Adam talks about the trajectory of his coaching pathway as his playing days came to an end. He takes us all the way to the moment when, in 2019, he learned that his team Fresno FC, would be ceasing operations despite pushing for playoffs and being near the top of the table.

From the Touchline is a short-feature (10-15 min) podcast with Rev Brad Kenney, Founder and Executive Director of Soccer Chaplains United and Volunteer Chaplain to the Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer. Rev Brad and occasional guests touch on various issues around the topics of faith, family, and football (soccer).
