ABOUT MANTA UNITED...

Manta United began play in the fall 2020 Season, initially fielding only a couple younger aged boys and girls teams. Manta was started with a true focus on the development of young players in a fun, family atmosphere. Manta makes its home on a multi-field outdoor complex in Strongsville as well in its own Manta Fieldhouse for indoor and year round training opportunities.

Manta’s founder, Tony Catanzarite, is the men’s head coach of Walsh Jesuit High School and has put together a Manta club coaching staff with many years of experience at the youth, high school, and college levels.
