A visionary architect of the modern soccer landscape, Easler is a force of innovation and leadership, bringing a legacy of transformation to Fuego FC. His arrival signals a bold new direction for the club—one defined by ambition, excellence, and relentless progress.

Hailing from Alabama, Easler’s name is synonymous with revolution in the soccer world. As the founder of Beach Soccer Los Angeles, he didn’t just build a club—he ignited a movement. His leadership propelled the sport to unprecedented heights at both amateur and professional levels, setting new standards of competition and visibility.

Since 2017, he has masterminded the rise of one of the most respected and decorated women’s beach soccer programs, elevating athletes to the international stage and forging pathways for national team representation worldwide.

His tireless advocacy and strategic brilliance have not only created historic opportunities for female athletes but have also secured landmark sponsorships and global marketing deals, expanding the sport’s reach like never before.

Easler’s impact is global. His strategic vision led to an unprecedented partnership with Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas, one of Brazil’s most legendary sporting institutions. Beyond his on-field influence, he has applied his deep expertise to help launch and scale multiple soccer technology startups, positioning himself at the cutting edge of the sport’s digital evolution. His ability to merge innovation with tradition has reshaped the way soccer is played, managed, and marketed.

Now, Easler brings his unrivaled passion, strategic acumen, and game-changing mentality to Central Valley Fuego FC. His leadership marks the dawn of an exciting new chapter—one where boundaries are shattered, expectations are exceeded, and Fuego FC becomes a beacon of excellence in American soccer.

“I am honored to join Fuego at such a pivotal moment in its journey,” said Easler. “This Club is fueled by passion, resilience, and an incredible community. I am here to build, innovate, and drive Fuego to new heights. We’re not just playing the game—we’re redefining it.”

Under Easler’s guidance, expect bold new initiatives, cutting-edge strategies, and a Club that is ready to dominate on every front. The fire has been lit—and with Easler at the helm, it’s only going to burn brighter.
