Just a little background on Kristians soccer coach. He is a respectable man that is not ashamed to let you know that he is a man of God. He is very strict yet kind to the boys. I have heard him say things such as ,"I am not here to make you professional soccer players I am here to make you good men." He is always saying, "good job son". I hope this season brings great things for Kristian. We are blessed to have such a great role model for him they are hard to find these days!

Bunbury began his professional playing career with the Hamilton Steelers (1987-90), Toronto Blizzard and Montreal Supra of the (former) Canadian Soccer League. Briefly a reserve at English club West Ham United where he made three first team appearances, Bunbury moved to Marítimo in 1993 where he established himself over his six seasons as one of the most well known foreign goal scorers of the SuperLiga during the 1990s. In 1999 Bunbury requested a move to play closer to his hometown of Montreal and was sold to the Kansas City Wizards of Major League Soccer. Ankle injuries forced his retirement after just two seasons with K.C. for whom he scored four goals in 24 games. Bunbury was inducted into the Canadian Soccer Hall of Fame in April 2006.
Since retirement Bunbury with his three childrens has made Prior Lake, Minnesota their home where he has been a youth soccer coach and trainer. He currently coaches for Bangu FC in Minnesota. His son Teal Bunbury is also a footballer.
