TESTIMONIALS

WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY

"I can't say enough good things about Gabe, as he's been working with my son for years. His soccer resume speaks for itself. However, it's those things that aren't on a resume that separate him from others. On time, with a good plan, flexible, and most importantly, keeps pushing the level of play while making space for fun."

Parent

"We love training with GOAT Soccer Academy! Coach Jon has created individualized sessions for both boys that focus on their needs to enhance technique and further their soccer development. Coach Jon is easy to communicate with and is very encouraging to both boys, providing them with drills and skills that can be practiced at home as well. I love to see their confidence soar, Thanks Coach Jon!"

"Our family has had such a wonderful experience with GOAT Soccer Academy. In a short time, our little one has learned great soccer skills and how to interact with other children in a sports environment. The coaches Josh and Brennan couldn't be nicer. They are great with young kids!"

Emily, Wilmington

Parent

"My son has trained with Gabe for 2+ years. Gabe brings an encouraging and positive energy to all training sessions. Gabe's sessions are well thought out, with a focus on improving individual technical ability. In a typical hour-long session, you can expect to get in 700+ touches. I highly recommend Gabe to any parent with a child that loves the game and wants to improve and compete at a high level."

"Gabe is a great personal trainer and I have grown a lot over the past year or so as a player having him to train with. He is very good at teaching and knows exactly what to say whenever you don't quite get something. He spots the issues whatever it may be and fixes them through great instruction."

"My daughter had a session with Gabe today. He is amazing. So positive. He had a plan the whole time there was no downtime and he made a game out of everything so it didn't seem like work. Coach Gabe is top notch!"
