Together we will asses the strengths and weakness within the 4 pillars which are the Tactical, Technical, Physical, and Phycological components of the game. We then will implement a plan to methodically strengthen this weakness by instilling confidence, motivation, inspiration, and education while at all times keeping the athlete engaged and focused on the short, medium and long-term goals.

Great experience and knowlegeable, ready to keep learning.

He was amazing

I would absolutely recommend Coach Costa. He helped my college-aged goalkeeper improve his skills for the fall season. He customized each training session for a comprehensive workout that always challenged my son. We started off with a few sessions, but ended up adding more because the sessions were so valuable.

Great experience , looking forward to more sessions

My daughter enjoyed her first session with Coach Costa and looks forward to future sessions.

Coach Costa was excellent at understanding and identifying the areas on which my son needed to work. He immediately developed good communications with my son and implemented drills and instructions that paid immediate dividends. My son thought the training was outstanding and looks forward to his next training session.

I enlisted Costa to work with my u12 son. In just a few sessions I saw a dramatic improvement in my sons game. He also enjoys working with and learning from Costa which makes all the difference. Costa is a very dedicated trainer . He comes to games to check progress. So far I am very pleased with my choice!

Costa worked very well with my son and brought him out of his shell. As this was my son's first time with a private trainer, I was a little skeptical. However, my son absolutely loved working with Costa and telling me all about what he learned.
He knows what it takes to win!!
Coach Costa was asked to train our U15G team that was struggling defensively, The five sessions he did for our team where just phenomenal. He turned our season around. Good luck to you!!! Again Thank you
Costa is a Very Good coach at the same time Very Approachable and open minded in discussion, thus new ideas can be discussed Very Best Wishes with Continued Success in the Future Arthur
