In 2010, his first season as an assistant coach, Schneider helped lead the team to the National Final Four in Louisville, KY, their 6th National Semifinal appearance in program history.

Since 2008, Schneider has been training the Middle Country Bulldogs and this year began training the Middle Country Lady Elite U9 squad.  In addition, he coordinated the first annual Wishmakers Clinic for Dowling in the spring of 2011.  That same summer, he worked for Long Island Professional Soccer (LIPS) camps.
