More About Coach Robert

Aloha! I have over 10 years of experience in coaching and training young athletes, I have been working with many players that are at different levels. I started coaching players who are still at a young age, from preschool up to high school and club level. As a soccer coach, I helped numerous athletes develop into a better version of themselves. In Europe, my previous experience includes working at the Chelsea Club in Bucharest, Romania, and creating and managing my soccer association, ACS Sport Fusion.
My experience in Hawaii includes working for Soccer Shots Oahu, Whitfield SC, and Albion Hawai'i.

The Nonprofit Organization that I am managing allows me to teach soccer, fitness, and conditioning in the parks or in schools. I know that with these private soccer training clinics, the players' chances to grow and become noticed by their peers or by other clubs grow exponentially, because they receive the boost of confidence and the extra attention that they need and don't find in any other place!

"My mission is to build a strong and confident player inside and outside the field through competitive and fun training. I am here to offer your child the support and the direction that he needs to get to the next level."

I managed to play at a professional level, competing with strong, confident, and skillful players. These are the professional teams I have been playing for :
"Caraimanul Euro-Africa” in Buşteni, Romania, a 4th League professional club between 2009-2011
"FC Gloria Buzau" in Buzau, Romania, a 2nd League professional soccer club between 2011-2013
Due to a bad ACL and meniscus injury, I was forced to stop, but my passion for this sport never stopped. I started working as a Sports Agent for TG World Football Promotion, working closely with clubs and helping to transfer soccer players from one club to another, 2013-2015.
At this time, I started studying to become a professional soccer coach. I currently hold the UEFA C license and have completed the 2-year course for the UEFA B license as well. I worked with over 500 families in Europe and Hawaii, helping their keikis improve their ball control abilities, increasing their speed through specific track & agility drills, and increasing their strength and muscles through specific fitness drills.

Depending on the age group, a player can expect training that is best suitable for his needs for improvement. The session will begin by greeting the individual/group of children and speaking to enforce positive learning (confidence, determination, respect, hardworking). Icebreaker soccer games can be used for warmups, running, and jumping exercises of different intensities in the first part of conditioning. Afterward, we will do multiple specific drills to help the player improve ball control and accuracy with both feet. The training is complex and can have a duration of up to 2 hours combining soccer, track, fitness, and stretching in one training.

To Whom it May Concern, This letter is to verify the employment of Coach Robert Gherghisan with Soccer Shots Oahu as a Head Soccer Coach Robert started this position with us on September 14, 2019. He has been an outstanding employee earning the rank of a Level 1 Instructor. He proved to be a fantastic coach, reliable employee and received top reviews from our participating players and families. It is our hope to restart his employment with us in the near future. Sincerely, Connor Artigue Executive Director & Owner Soccer Shots Oahu
I reached out to coach Robert to help me learn soccer drills so I can become a better player for the college. I googled “soccer sessions” and I clicked the link for “Private Soccer Sessions”. I got in touch with Coach Robert very quickly and we met accordingly to our schedules. I enjoyed his drills because they challenged me and I feel like I have improved my skills.
My grandson, M, had just turned 7 in December 2021 and wanted to improve his soccer skills. I found Coach Robert and contacted him. We spoke and he was willing to meet M in Pearl City and started working with him. I have seen much improvement in my grandson's ball handling and passing, especially with his non-dominant side, which he had struggled with before his sessions with Coach Robert. His strength, conditioning and his overall performance has substantially improved. Coach Robert is patient and takes the time to correct each player while they do their drills and gives them time to repeat it and do it properly. M enjoys the sessions and learning new skills, his favorite part is the scrimmage at the end.
Robert is a fantastic soccer coach who exhibits professionalism, enthusiasm, and determination while on the field. His coaching style encourages kids to improve and grow, all while fostering a fun and safe environment. My son looks forward to each and every practice and has shown immeasurable improvement over the past year. I highly recommend Robert as a soccer coach!
Coach Robert's enthusiasm for coaching kids soccer shows in all of his private soccer sessions. We have been thrilled to see the improvement in our child's skills after his sessions with Coach Robert. He communicates effectively, kids are challenged to push themselves, and they leave practice Happy. Highly recommend Coach Robert for coaching soccer!
Coach Robert is a high-quality soccer coach who provides high-quality soccer lessons to my son (5) and daughter (6) which they really enjoy. He has a broad and deep range of knowledge in soccer including conditioning, speed, quickness, skills, and strategy which would serve beginners to advanced players. Highly recommend!
My sons were hesitant at first to join this new diverse age group but after the first session they didn’t want to stop!! The sessions are mainly group conditioning which made them compete positively together. Coach Robert kept them motivated with great positive encouragement!! My youngest usually gives up too quickly but Coach really kept him going. It was great to see them working out and having fun too! Highly recommend!!
Coach Rob’s training sessions include conditioning, speed, agility, and a variety of ball skills, such as passing and finishing. He is a positive role model, has great energy, and challenges players to push themselves to be the best. My son has seen improvement in his skills, and the trainings have increased his confidence on the field. I appreciate the flexible scheduling. Would definitely recommend Coach Rob for private soccer lessons!
Coach Robert is a fun, energetic, and knowledgeable coach. His trainings include a lot of fitness as he is aiming to develop athletes. The kids are usually pretty tired after but they do really enjoy his practices. Overall, great training.
My family and I came to Hawaii for vacation from Vancouver, Canada, and needed soccer training for our son while we were here for 2 weeks. I found Coach Robert on Google and decided to give him a try and we were very happy with his training and fitness. He's a very good coach, he connects well with the kids. Our our son was very happy with his training sessions and I would recommend him to other families. Thanks, coach Rob, we will get in touch next time we visit Hawaii. Take care.
My kids have been having so much fun, learning skills, and building confidence being trained by Coach Robert. He has made soccer so fun that even my 5-year-old son who really did not enjoy his last two AYSO seasons request to play with Coach Robert. He connects with the kids and coaches at their individual levels. We are so happy we found him and would highly recommend him to families looking to help their children progress and love the sport.
Coach Robert is a positive and high-quality coach who does exceptional work. He is very good at what he does. My 8 year old son has made significant progress in a short duration of time. For anyone looking for a soccer coach, you will be pleased with the results you get from coach Robert.
My 12 year old son who had played for AYSO recently got on a club team where his confidence plummeted quickly. He always really enjoyed playing soccer, but having been promoted to the next level, he found himself with players much more capable than himself. Coach Robert has instilled a new confidence in him, increased his skill level across-the-board, increased strength, endurance and a positive attitude. I am so thankful we found Coach Robert. He is a talented coach, a positive influence and a breath of fresh air.
My son has really gained all the confidence and strength to be great as a soccer player and a goalkeeper. Coach Robert is committed to working with my son and is dependable. To be there when he’s supposed to. My son's speed. Focus and drive to be the best on and off the field is due to a lot of coach Robert's help.
Coach Robert knows soccer well and teaches important skills to his players. He encourages the kids to do their best. My son really was able to learn a lot of important soccer skills.
Coach Robert is wonderful. He makes the kids work really hard (Cole would be sore after his workouts!) and yet they still have a lot of fun. I appreciated the flexibility during the summer with traveling and illnesses. We will definitely sign up for more classes.
Coach Robert is a great role model and coach. He excels at engaging the kids in positive skill development, attitude, and dedication to fitness and soccer. He mixes games, ropes, balls, and parachutes into a fun time on the field.
Coach Rob is great with the players. He provides a good balance of strength and conditioning, speed and agility, on-ball training, and games-like tug of war and scrimmages. He holds sessions in various locations around Oahu and are almost on a daily basis. My player trains with him at Kailua and Pearl City, Kahala, and Honolulu area.
I highly recommend Coach Robert! His lessons include speed and agility training, ball skills, passing, and more. He is a wonderful role model as he builds confidence and challenges the kids to push themselves to do their best.
Coach Robert is amazing! He helped us with training sessions while visiting the island earlier this year and it helped make our trip truly memorable! We will be seeing Coach Robert again soon!
Ever since my son started attending this soccer training, he has gotten physically stronger. These soccer practices are very effective, I can see my son quickly improving his gameplay. Highly recommended!
This has been an opportunity for our son to develop skills and practice. He has enjoyed these sessions and gained confidence as he progressed. This is a good supplement to the team practice. Kyle wants to keep coming to this in addition to the team practice.
Coach Robert has been doing a great job at soccer conditioning, technical development and soccer concepts.
Coach Robert is such a wonderful coach! My son has improved so much with his solid guidance + encouragement. He truly cares for the children's well-being as well as leading them to be great players. We're so grateful to have found him!
Coach Robert is an amazing coach! This is our son’s first time training for soccer and he just loves it! He has learned so much after only 3 sessions. He has gained so much confidence and practices what he learns from the training sessions at home every day. That’s how fun and interesting Coach Robert’s classes are. I am so impressed by how much our son’s skill level has improved in such a short amount of time. Coach Robert works well with the kids and his positive and encouraging coaching reflects upon his players. I highly recommend Coach Robert!
I signed my nephews up for several private soccer lessons and they enjoyed it! It allows them to step away from their laptops, get out of the house, and enjoy playing outside. The coach is professional and flexible with scheduling. My nephews are always excited because they get to learn new drills for the sport they love. Thanks again, Coach Robert!
I told my mom to sign up my younger brother for soccer lessons and we reached out to coach Robert. My younger brother had so much fun learning about soccer and now he’s training regularly to be better than he was. My family is grateful for coach Robert’s time and effort in my brother!
My 9 yo daughter loves going to practices with Coach Robert. She is typically one of the less experienced players on the field and Coach Robert helps her with her confidence and encourages her to keep trying. Coach has a great demeanor with the kids and demonstrates a nice balance of making them feel supported yet pushing them out of their comfort zone at the same time. Although there are varying levels of players at the practices, the Coach is able to give everyone the attention that they need and at their appropriate level. My daughter's skills and confidence with soccer have noticeably improved and she’s always excited to go to practice. Highly recommend.
Coach Robert provides high-quality training in all aspects of soccer- conditioning, footwork, and ball skills- he is an amazing coach! More importantly, he loves the sport and creates a positive and competitive atmosphere for the kids. His enthusiasm and positive energy are reflected in his coaching style and the way he interacts with the kids. My 10yr old has learned so much and improved tremendously. Thank you, Coach!
