Cherokee Names New Men's Soccer Head Coach

CANTON, GA -- Cherokee High School has named Samer Kaddah as the new head coach for its men's soccer program.

A World and U.S. History teacher, Kaddah grew up in Kennesaw and graduated from Kell High School as a four-year soccer starter and three-year captain, who also played club soccer for NASA.

Kaddah also played soccer for Kennesaw State University from 2009 to 2012 while earning his degree in history. Upon graduation, he joined Cherokee High School’s staff as a history teacher.

“Coach Kaddah brings a wealth of background and experience to the position,” Assistant Principal/Athletic Director Jeremy Adams said. “He has tremendous desire to lead student-athletes to be better players and overall people.

Kaddah and his wife, Christina, are expecting their first child this spring.

“I am very excited to have the opportunity to build upon a program that has already been established,” Kaddah said. “We have a great group of athletes and coaches, and I think the future is very bright for Warriors’ soccer.”
