In addition to his work with the Riverhounds, Hackenberg is the founder of Run Fast Jump High Soccer, a specialty training program focused on technical development, sports performance, and biomechanics. His approach blends technical detail with athletic performance, helping players sharpen the movements, habits, and decision-making needed to compete at a high level.
Known for building organized, disciplined teams that are difficult to play against, Hackenberg’s coaching style places a strong emphasis on transitional play, final-third execution, and winning key moments. That approach will be key for Weiss OCFC as the club prepares for the fast-paced, high-pressure format of TST.
With a roster built around experience, creativity, and competitive fire, Weiss OCFC will look to make an immediate impact under Hackenberg’s leadership.
