Shaun Tsakiris Historic 3-Peat

Congratulations to our new Technical Director, Shaun Tsakiris, on his third straight MLS NEXT Cup championship with the LA Galaxy Academy!

Shaun brings with him an unmatched track record in elite youth development and a championship-caliber mindset that will elevate our entire program. Under his leadership, the LA Galaxy U19 team captured the 2025 MLS NEXT Cup title, making them the first club in MLS NEXT history to win three different age-group championships consecutively.

Shaun’s experience at the highest levels of youth soccer—including developing future professionals and national team players—will have a lasting impact on our coaches, players, and club culture. We’re excited to welcome him back to the LGU family and begin building the next chapter of excellence together.

Congrats, Shaun — we’re excited to see what’s to come!
