My two daughters, aged 13 and 8, have been hesitant to try new things, but Coach Rafael has been able to demand respect, teach fundamentals, and make them comfortable. I think they both appreciate it. Learning fundamentals can get lost when players feel pressure from being behind some of the more advanced team members. I highly recommend the academy for working with multiple levels of the player's skill and comfort.

We have our boys in the program and it is absolutely worth it. Rafael and his fellow coaches do great with all the kids and maintain a nice variety of drills to keep things fresh but still familiar. Often times there are multiple coaches and each kid gets some individual attention to focus on specific skills which our boys have benefitted from.

My son has attended FTBL Academy group training twice a week for 3 months now and he truly enjoys it. The kids definitely get a lot of touches regardless of level of skill which has definitely improved my son fundamentals, confidence and cardio. He has worked with 4 different coaches on different day/sessions and they've all been great. I can't speak for the private or more advanced groups but we've found value in the beginner and intermediate group trainings.

So glad we found FTBL Academy! I was looking for a training program that focused on the fundamentals while still allowing kids to be kids. The focus on fundamentals, creativity, and fun is the perfect environment for growth and long term love for the game. Thanks Rafael and the whole FTBL Academy team!

Exactly what we were looking for! Our schedules don’t permit for us to have our child in a soccer team for now. This allows for him to enjoy the sport while acquiring new skills. Definitely recommend!

My son really loved soccer but he lacked the confidence he needed to play well. A friend introduced me to ftbl and my son has been going for a few months now and I’ve noticed such an immense difference in the way he dribbles and handles the ball. I would recommend ftbl to anyone whose kids are into soccer, it’s a great way for them to give them the confidence they need to play soccer while having fun at the same time.

My wife found FTBL Academy through Google, we were researching soccer training for our 7 year old daughter. After reading the reviews and speaking to the owner Rafael we gave it a try. We loved it immediately as did our 7 year old. The training has improved our daughters soccer skills immensely as she continues to improve. We also appreciate the flexibility and understanding on rescheduling training days. Rafael has been great with open communication and with his training with our daughter. We would definitely recommend FTBL Academy.

My daughter is 10 and has been doing group training at FTBL academy for over 3 months. The sessions are well planned out and run very efficiently, incorporating many different type of drills including 1v1 and 2v2 which really puts her skills to the test. It’s been a great session for developing and improving her skills and I’ve already noticed improvement. She also has a great time and enjoys every session! I’m so glad we found FTBL academy, I highly recommend it! FTBL Academy's approach to soccer and coaching in general is right on. They encourage the students to be the best THEY can be and not to compare themselves to others. They stress the importance of being a good and supportive teammate. These are lessons that are relevant both on and off the pitch. I highly recommend FTBL Academy and look forward to watching my child's progress under their program.

FTBL Academy is a good place to send your kids to train for soccer. Rafael and his fellow coaches are great at training kids and they put their hearts in what they do. My son is not just learning new skills as his 2x a week trainings help strengthen his stamina too. He is always excited to attend his sessions and he claims that he’s getting better at soccer because of Rafael.

The FTBL academy was a great way to gain experience for my son. It builds on their knowledge in a fun and interactive way. He really loved going to his weekly practice and coach Rafael was excellent and engaging. It was safe, motivating and fun. FTBL Academy's approach to soccer and coaching in general is right on. They encourage the students to be the best THEY can be and not to compare themselves to others. They stress the importance of being a good and supportive teammate. These are lessons that are relevant both on and off the pitch. I highly recommend FTBL Academy and look forward to watching my child's progress under their program.
