Head Coach Bio
Head Coach Bio
Jay Bulev
Jay began his coaching career when he was in high school as a volunteer after he was sidelined by an ACL injury. Coaching was a way for him to stay involved with soccer while recovering from his surgery. He loved the experience and went on to get his USSF coaching license and began coaching travel soccer in Wilmette. His passion for teaching soccer in a fun and different way was heavily influenced by Italian coaches during an exchange program in the summer of 2004.
Bulev was originally hired at Stevenson in 2020 to serve as the head girls' freshman coach and will now be the Head Coach leading the girls soccer program. A New Trier graduate and soccer veteran coach, Bulev has experience in the high school realm and with several clubs in northern Illinois. Jay's passion for the game of soccer started on the streets, parks, schoolyards, and beaches of Bulgaria where he grew up. "I vividly remember that between the ages of 6 and 12 all that mattered to me and my friends was playing soccer all day every day. The competition was always fierce, but it was also more fun than anything else."Jay has been coaching youth soccer for over 15 years with various travel clubs, most recently with Green White Soccer Club where he served as Director of Coaching and led their U18 girls team to the President’s Cup National Championship.
