Dear MHYSC Players, Coaches and Parents,
It is with mixed emotions we inform you that Aleks Balta, our Technical Director is leaving Mount Hamilton to accept an opportunity with Hamilton United as their Technical Director. While we are sad to lose Aleks, we are tremendously happy for him as he continues along the coaching pathway towards his career objectives.
Mount Hamilton is proud of our legacy of development not just with players and officials, but also coaches and staff. We were the first club in Hamilton to have a full-time Club Head Coach and Technical Director when we hired Carl Horton back in 2008, Aleks joined MHYSC in 2015 as our second Club Head Coach and Technical Director after Carl moved on to an opportunity at that time with Ontario Soccer.
During Aleks tenure, MHYSC’s Academy became the premier development environment for talented young soccer players under the ages of 12 in the Hamilton District. A significant number of the players playing OPDL and Regional level soccer with Hamilton United have come from Mount Hamilton.
Aleks’ appointment at Hamilton United is effective November 1, 2019. The next steps are MHYSC will continue to run academy programming in the upcoming fall and winter sessions with our existing coaches. Our board will begin the process of looking for a new Technical Director to replace Aleks immediately.
“On behalf of the Mount Hamilton Youth Soccer Club I would like to thank Aleks Balta for his contribution to our club over the past few years,” said MHYSC President Mark Fonovic. “Aleks’ passion and coaching ability helped develop many young boys and girls as top soccer players in Hamilton.”
“I would like to thank Mount Hamilton Youth Soccer Club for the opportunity to be Technical Director, it’s been a great experience and helped me develop as a coach,” commented Aleks Balta. “To the players I have worked with and families I have met at MHYSC, it’s been a pleasure and I look forward to perhaps working with many of you again.”
