Matthew Leone's Soccer & Life Training

I'm a twin and an adoring father to a 6-year-old boy. My journey includes: playing D1 in college and semi-pro soccer in Italy, winning NBC's Fear Factor, and touring the world with my band, Madina Lake. In 2018, I founded 501c3 Charity Bomb to help children grow mental muscle. After re-discovering my passion for soccer, I've become a Divisional Coordinator for AYSO, I coach my son's team, and I play in two men's leagues.
