Jorge “Yoyo” Zavala

Founder | Coach | Tactical Educator

With over 30 years of experience across corporate leadership and elite youth soccer, I’ve worked at every level from coaching on pro teams, building academy systems, to coaching national teams. I've seen the gaps firsthand: talented players with potential… but no one teaching them how to think the game.

That’s why I launched Game IQ Analysis to give players access to the kind of personalized film sessions that should be standard in development.

I’m passionate about helping players understand not just what happened, but why and giving them tools to change the game for themselves.
