Hamden Hall is pleased to announce that Aaron Gialanella has been hired as the new Girls’ Varsity Soccer Coach for the upcoming fall season.
“I'm very excited to join the Hamden Hall community and have strong ambitions to create a fun environment while empowering players to be their best on and off the pitch,” said Aaron.

Hailing from Albany, N.Y., Aaron played soccer at Albany High School and the Albany Soccer Club. He played collegiate rugby at the State University of New York at Albany (SUNY Albany).

His coaching career began with several grassroots organizations before working as a scout and coach for D.C. United Academy. In his position, he hosted clinics from Maryland to North Carolina with partner clubs to identify high potential players.

Additionally, Aaron served as the coach for the New York Red Bulls Academy where he managed the U13B and U12G sides at FC Mount Pleasant United, the affiliate club in Valhalla, N.Y. He also coached seasonal other youth programs.

He has completed courses with the United States Soccer Federation (USSF), Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), and the Professional Football Scouts Association (PFSA).
