Dimitris Hoimes
"Coach Jimmy"

Dimitris "Jimmy" Hoimes co-founded Test Soccer Academy. He played soccer for Liberty High School and Ursinus College's club team, as well as helping to develop the now extensive pick-up soccer scene in the valley.  Over the years, he has connected hundreds (if not thousands) of people with the sport in the area to pick-up games, training, viewing parties, and more. He believes soccer should be accessible to everyone and fights to make it that way. Jimmy specializes in the 'number 9' role as a box to box goal scoring and assisting midfielder. He still plays pickup games (albeit at a slower pace and without contact) despite a major spinal cord injury and refuses to give up on his dream of staying involved in the sport. Jimmy believes that every day matters in your soccer journey, and you practice how you play. Motivation, drive, and integrity are a huge part of his life. These skills were acquired during his playing career and apply to life outside of the game as well. Jimmy has an unmatched passion for the game and a zest for life which he hopes to imprint on to the next generation of players. Soccer is about building a personal culture of accountability and selflessness which can be used both on and off the field in order to succeed in any endeavor. 'If it was easy, everyone would do it!'
