He went on to play professional soccer at both the Premier Development League and Major League Soccer levels.
Zobre played Division 1 soccer at Binghamton University and was recognized as an America East Second Team All-Conference player and named to the America East All-Academic Team. He has held coaching positions at Hartwick College, as well as Poughkeepsie High School.
In addition to their responsibilities as personal trainers, Phillips and Zobre lead the Gold’s Gym Elite Athletic Development Program, in which youth athletes learn a variety of techniques designed to maximize overall fitness, strength and speed and reduce recovery time in order to help limit the risk of injury.
“Corey and Scott bring unparalleled knowledge and experience to our clients,” said Kenyon. “They know what it takes, both physically and mentally, to compete at a high-level.”
The newly-formed Kingston Stockade Football Club is one of 65 National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) teams in the country and competes in the North Atlantic conference, taking the field against the New York Cosmos B, Boston City FC and the Seacoast Mariners, among others.
