The Atlantic High School girls' soccer team will have a new head coach for the 2026 season. Amy Sachs, who has previously coached youth soccer teams, is taking over the high school program. While this will be her first time coaching at the high school level, Sachs is excited to get started with the team.

Why it matters

High school sports programs often see coaching turnover, and a new coach can bring fresh ideas and approaches that can impact a team's performance and culture. Sachs' youth coaching experience may help her connect with the student-athletes and implement new strategies.

The details

Sachs has coached youth soccer teams in the past, including leading a team that her own son played on. However, the Atlantic High School girls' soccer team will be her first coaching job at the high school level. Despite the new challenge, Sachs is enthusiastic about taking over the program and is ready to "hit the ground running" with the team.

  • The 2026 Atlantic High School girls' soccer season will begin in the spring of 2026.
