Fun Fact. A player on average touches the ball for 3 minutes during a Soccer game.
Therefore Clients can expect the majority of each session to be focused around the ball, after all you only have 3 minutes each game to fully express yourself .
Sessions will be tailored to each Client’s strengths and other areas they wish to develop. Coordination drills will follow the warm ups. Passing , Dribbling and shooting drills will be the main part of each session. If Clients have specific areas they need to work on ,sessions will be tailored to their need.

Client Reviews

Coach Jason is great. Good attitude, patient and knows his stuff. Would highly recommend.

Jason has been an outstanding role model and coach. The depth of his experience as a professional footballer at international and club level is an unbelievable opportunity for youth coaching. Practice sessions have focused on fundamentals, athleticism, and push work ethic to keep going until an achievement is reached. Our son has loved sessions with Jason and has shown massive improvement in ball control, fitness and readiness. We have seen skills at training translate to games and confidence. Aside from all that Jason’s a great guy, we get to watch him play professionally, and our son loves asking him questions about his amazing history in playing soccer. Outstanding!

My son has had a few sessions with Jason and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Jason is an incredible coach. He has great energy and my son loves his training time with him. Jason is intuitive and knows exactly what to work with my son on and he is encouraging, patient and focused. Jason's passion and experience with soccer is apparent. If you are thinking about booking a session with him, do it, he is the best!

Coach Jason is fantastic. He is a great player and a great coach. My son is learning so much from him. Thank you Jason.

My son is very anxious and shy around new people but he loves soccer! I reached out and told Coach Jason this. Coach Jason made the practice fun and offered much encouragement. After the first lesson my son improved and also requested to work with Coach Jason again! Very happy I found him and would highly recommend him. He makes you feel confident and is open to having a discussion to see if he is the best fit. My son is excited to for their next session!

Coach Jason was wonderful! He definitely stood out as an experienced coach from the start. Additionally, while working with my son he was nothing but encouraging and energetic. His feedback was always framed as corrective rather than discouraging. Highly recommend!

Coach Jason was great! He was both professional and enthusiastic during training. He asked a lot of background questions ahead of time to build a training program around my son's needs, and was well prepared. He was able to explain the training drills well, and scale them up or down as needed. He also related the reason behind a drill, and how the technique could be applied on the field, based on his own real-world experiences as a professional player. That kind of knowledge is invaluable. I highly recommend Coach Jason!
