Professional

He went on to play for the L.A. Blues team in various amateur leagues in the Los Angeles area, and won several local cups and leagues between 2005 and 2009.

Coaching

Botello worked a coach for Southern California youth soccer organization Legends FC, alongside fellow ex-Galaxy player Alex Bengard. [2] He was hired as head coach of the Hollywood United Hitmen in the USL Premier Development League in 2010.
