My sessions evolve around touches on the ball and ball mastery. I appreciate the fundamentals of what makes a good soccer player and work on creating these foundations to move forward.

All of my sessions are tailored to the individual. I like to discuss with parent and player what they feel are their strengths and weaknesses and create my sessions accordingly.
