Johannes Brendle

Camp Director

Hey there! I’m Johannes, the founder of JB Soccer Academy+ and Camp Director of the Munich Soccer Camp! Soccer has been my passion ever since I started playing at the age of three. Before moving to St. Louis, Missouri in 2018, I played for the youth teams of the German Bundesliga club 1. FC Heidenheim 1846 e.V. Seeking to live the American dream, I had the chance to join Lindenwood University in 2018 on a soccer scholarship. During my time there, I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Physical Education and Psychology, forging friendships from around the globe and growing both as an athlete and as a person. Overcoming the challenges of living abroad, immersing myself in unknown surroundings and cultures definitely made me a better person. I thoroughly enjoyed living, studying and working in the United States and can proudly say that I have made memories and friends that will last a lifetime!

I am fluent in three languages: German, English and Spanish. In my spare time I enjoy reading books, go hiking, and playing plenty of other sports such as basketball, ping pong and tennis. Inspired by my past experiences I strive to also give other young international soccer players the chance to grow and experience another culture!
