OUR TRAINERS
George Longwa

Head Coach
George Longwa, founder of Advanced Soccer Training (AST), brings a lifetime of experience and passion for the game. Born in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Africa, George began his journey with the Pro Junior Academy club, the Kalulushi Modern Stars, where he played from 1996–1999. At 14, he relocated to Bridgeport, Connecticut, a city he proudly calls home. By 17, just after graduating high school, he was already shaping the future of soccer by coaching and developing some of Fairfield County’s top talent.
In addition to competing regionally and nationally with a Semi-Professional team, George has dedicated his career to developing players at every level of the game. Under his guidance, athletes have earned full scholarships at NCAA DI, DII, and DIII programs, while others have advanced to professional and academy teams such as NYCFC, NY Red Bulls, New England Revolution, and the U.S. National Team. His influence even extends internationally, with one of his trainees earning a spot on the Women’s National Team of Peru.
With a proven track record of excellence, George continues to inspire and prepare the next generation of elite players through Advanced Soccer Training.
