Forward Madison FC are excited to announce that Neil Hlavaty will return as the Head Assistant Coach for the 2022 season.
Hlavaty will be going into his 4th year with Forward Madison. New Head Coach Matt Glaeser expressed appreciation of Hlavaty’s coaching experience with the club. “I’m very pleased to welcome Neil back to the Forward Madison family. He has proven himself to be an intelligent, hard working and trustworthy colleague and his experience and knowledge in USL League 1 will be invaluable to myself and the rest of the staff.“
The 34-year-old former player was originally added to Daryl Shore’s technical staff in Forward Madison’s first season. Hlavaty had just finished a playing career which saw him feature for a number of clubs both domestically and abroad, winning USL and NASL trophies in both 2009 and 2011, respectively.
“We’re happy Neil is continuing with the organization,” Forward Madison COO Conor Caloia said. “Neil has been a big part of the club on and off the field since we launched in 2019. We appreciate his commitment to the Club and the community.”
“I’m very grateful and excited to be back with Forward Madison,” Hlavaty said. “Forward Madison has given me a great platform to learn and challenge myself as a coach. It’s a place unlike any other within the landscape of professional soccer in the United States. The club is consistently aiming to win trophies, and I plan to do everything in my power to help achieve those ambitions.”
