What SFA Families Say

★★★★★

The level of training that you get with Soccer Field is far above any other training that we have been to. Having the kids learn to think for themselves and find the open space all while developing technical skills is second to none.

Gavin’s Family · Toledo, OH

★★★★★

James’s attention to detail and enthusiasm are unmatched. He has a keen understanding of each kid’s needs — physically and mentally — and tailors his training to fit. My son is certainly better for having James mentor him.

Harper’s Family · Pittsburgh, PA

★★★★★

Consistent commitment to focus on player development based on speed of play, positional awareness, tactical acumen and individual skill — all in context of the overall game at large.

“My time training with James starting as early as when I was 12 was amazing. He taught me basically all of my technical base — from checking my shoulder and receiving on the half-turn to ball striking. Without him I would not be where I am today as a player and a person.”

Emeka Eneli

Real Salt Lake · MLS & USMNT

“Can’t say enough about the impact James has had on my family and me. His passion for the game is infectious. Thank you.”

Keegan Hughes

“Absolutely the best soccer training around. The level of attention to detail and player development is something I haven’t seen anywhere else.”
