Coach Christian is an incredible soccer trainer and his assistant coaches are terrific. Amazing knowledge of the game... and skills required to play it well. He is tough, demanding and expects the most from his players. He is not like other trainers who just want to make a buck. He cares that your child improves and emphasizes dedication. Outstanding is the first word to describe Elite Soccer PK.read more

My daughter is only on her 6th practice and is loving every minute of it. She is not only learning the basics of the... game, but gaining confidence in herself. That is a quality that will last a life time. The coaches are lovely and make sure that every player is seen, heard, and challenged. I couldn't be more impressed. We will be back for more clinics!read more

My Niece and Nephew have been taking 1on1 privates and attended a few of their clinics in the last 2 years and all I... can say is that all the coaches are great, knowledgeable and actually show them visually how to do the drills. Overtime I saw a huge improvement not only in their soccer skills but in their attitude and confidence as well.During their weekly 1on1 Training sessions, they both have a dedicated trainer for 90 minutes working on their Footwork and individual skills.Their clinics are well organized. All kids are divided into different groups and stations depending on their skills level and the ratio Coaches/Players are small. Their favorite part is the scrimmage at the end.Thumbs up!!!read more

I highly recommend Coach Christian clinics and trainings. They are fun and effective sessions. It was my son’s first... month with Coach Christian clinics and he loved them, he was always ready and eager to get their in time. He seems like a hard Coach at first but he is very firm , patient and very kind. He gives each player the time to grow and learn on their own pace but makes them work hard . I can see that Coach has love and passion for this sport and encourages and motivates the kids in every aspect of soccer. Thank you Coach for your dedication.read more

Tough but effective coaching. I’ve been training with Christian/Elite Soccer PK for a year and recently moved from club... to an academy (MLS Next) team. I believe his training got me ready for this next level of play.read more

Elite Soccer PK it’s not your average run-of-the-mill soccer training program. From the start coach Christian... Communicates his expectations of how a player should act on and off the pitch. He is truly a coach that takes youth soccer players to the next level and after only a few sessions in either his clinics or private training you see a difference in how your young player respects and approaches the game. I am happy to say that he is turning my son into a leader Not just with Soccer but in all aspects of life! Thank you elite soccer, looking forward to the next set of Friday clinics!!Jasonread more

My son has been playing soccer since he was five years old and we have worked with about half a dozen coaches. We are... so grateful that we found coach Chris because he is just on another level. If you want European academy level training this is your guy. I have watched him work with kids that are just starting out and kids that are academy level and he always knows how to get them motivated. If you are serious about soccer you will not find a better coach. He is brutally honest so be prepared to hear the facts about your kids.SIX STARS FROM US⚽🇧🇬read more

I highly recommend Elite Soccer PK. The coaches are knowledgeable and professional. Coach Christian sets the tone for... the entire team. His experience, dedication and passion for soccer reflects in the way they train and their results. Not only does he teach technique (which is on point) but he goes beyond that to help the kids stay focused, discipled, and committed. He’s the best!read more

My kids both have been going to Christian for a few months. Their soccer has changed so much in this short time. He is... so focused on their footwork, effort, and speed. He and his team are honestly better than other coaches we have been to and the results are really there. We have spent so much money and time on camps and private lessons, and have a lot to compare him to. He has really high expectations and my kids know they have to work hard every time they are out there because the coaches aren't going to let them get away with slowing down, taking short cuts, or sloppy footwork. He is making them more disciplined and better skilled.read more
