More About Coach Kyle

I have been coaching for five years including private sessions and at the club team level. My club experience has been at Sporting Blue Valley Soccer Club located in Overland Park, Kansas which included a U-10 boys premier team and a U-13 girls team. During my time in Kansas City I was also a volunteer assistant coach for the Rockhurst University (NCAA Division 2) Men's Soccer team for two seasons. I work with boys and girls aged 10-18 who are passionate about the game of soccer and who are looking to improve their skills!

I attended Rockhurst University in Kansas City, Missouri from 2008-2011. I was named First Team NSCAA All- American in 2011 and was drafted by Sporting Kansas City of the MLS in the 2012 MLS Supplemental Draft. I spent two seasons with Sporting Kansas City and most recently I signed with Oklahoma City Energy FC in January of 2014.

Typically my sessions run for about an hour or so and I always start off with a good warm up, then the session is all about honing a players technique. This entails drills that will improve the players dribbling skills, first touch, passing with the left and right foot, improved shooting, 1 0n 1 defending and hand eye coordination. I pride myself in helping players develop several skills that will improve their confidence and therefore performance on the soccer field. Throughout my career I have played nearly every position on the soccer field (besides goalie) so i know the importance of developing several skills needed to succeed on the field.

Coach Kyle is great and has helped my son hone his foot skills and advanced his understanding of ball skills.

Highly recommend, Kylie. Quickly evaluated where she was needing improvement. My daughter has continued to evolve in her soccer game, foot skills and technique since we started lessons early this summer. Top notch communication.

I enjoyed training with coach Kyle! I learned new skills and he is very skilled in training. He is very patient and passionate as well. I would recommend him for soccer training.

Kyle was the best with my 6 year old just getting started in soccer. Thanks for all the tips and tricks and giving us a good starting place for our little pro. Appreciate your time! I highly recommend!

This was great!! We definitely be back

Coach Kyle has some a terrific job with helping my son improve his skills. My son is playing mainly defence on a U13 Academy team, but has struggles with taking shots on goal, if moved into any other position. Kyle has helped him build his confidence and worked with him on finishing/shots. Since training with Kyle, my has grown so much!

My 14 yo daughter just started working with Kyle. He is excellent and my daughter can't wait for her next session.

Coach Kyle was awesome. He was all ready to go when we arrived and spent the entire hour running drills and working with my son. He was very patient and did a fantastic job communicating with my 12 y/o. My son was tired but very excited about the session and can't wait for the next one.

Coach Kyle was really good working with our son. He was very patient and explained everything very well. Our son is super excited to continue working with Kyle. Kyle was very organized and got a ton out of an hour long session. We are excited to see the progression with our son in the coming weeks.

Coach Kyle understood where client was coming from, her conditioning and recovery from ACL repair. Worked her hard and challenged her. Provided valuable feedback and encouragement during the session. Grace looks forward to another session with Coach Kyle.

Kyle was great to work with and we look forward to more sessions. He was able to quickly access the areas our son needs to focus on during sessions.

Kyle has been working with my son for a few months now. I honestly can say that my son has improved dramatically since Kyle has been working with him! Kyle works with my son on his skill level and always gives him things to work on. He has helped my son with his confidence on the field. We are so glad we gave him a try!

Coach Kyle did a great job coaching my daughter and gave her the confidence she needed to up her game with her competitive teams. He worked with her on her shooting and dribbling skills as well as ball control. We plan to continue working with Kyle in the spring now that the fall season is over. I would recommend Kyle to any parent who believe their child could benefit from private lessons. He is very personable and works great with children. He is prompt when arriving for lessons and communicated well with me on scheduling and was very flexible with us when we had to change our plans.

Kyle was an excellent coach for my son! My son loved every moment in his session and knew coming home that Kyle is the guy to help him reach his goals in soccer. He was prepared and had all of the stations laid out before our arrival and pushed my son to his full abilities. Kyle was really easy to work with in terms of questions, booking, and scheduling. I would suggest if you are looking for a pro to train your child and want a stress free environment, you must go with Kyle!

Kyle was incredibly professional and personable, and I can honestly say I was nothing but impressed with how well he worked with my 9 year old. He was very flexibly with scheduling and went out of his way to accommodate our busy weeks. His coaching style, and the drills and techniques he pass along were the perfect fit for my son's skill level and provided us with a full set of tools to take home and practice. I have full confidence that even after a single session my child's confidence and love for the game grew 10 fold.
Thanks Kyle! I was extremely impressed and can't say enough how happy we were with your coaching, your knowledge level, and your patience. Truly a wonderful experience!

What a great and personable coach. He connected with my daughter right away. Tweaked exactly what I asked about and it has made a huge difference. Thanks again. Highly Recommend.

Coach kyle attended one of my daughters soccer games to evaluate her level of play and what needed to be worked on. Upon initial meeting I was very impressed with not only his knowledge but by the time her game was over he had already started planning her future training based on things he had seen during game. During our discussions he really impressed me with he desire to not only coach but to be a mentor to his trainees in their soccer years. If all his future training sessions are Carried out with such professionalism and desire to grow my daughters game I can see us training for years to come.

Coach Kyle is a great coach and very patient with my 5 and 8 year old. They both look forward to training days with him

Ella had her first session with Kyle and she stated it was very effective. She was happy to start correcting some bad habits. We have already booked 3 more sessions and Ella is excited for the next session.

My daughter had one session with coach Kyle and really liked how he taught his drills. They were really easy to convert them to game time situations. We have already booked more sessions. We would recommend him to anybody wanting some one on one training.
