My 14-year-old son made the high school soccer team and quickly realized his skills were not up to par. We joined Rafael‘s semi private lessons once a week. My son absolutely loves working with Rafael. He will bring certain scenarios to Rafael for input and advice. Rafael always gives time and attention to the things that my son is asking for help with, as well as continuing to work through FTBL Academy’s prescribed program. My son‘s 1 v 1 game has significantly improved.

My son took a 3 year break from soccer and recently wanted to get back into it and take his skills to a higher level. We found FTBL academy, and Rafael has improved my son's skills and fitness in just a few months. He looks forward to every session and the opportunity to practice new skills. He would go every day if he could. Rafael encourages the kids to work hard and take practice seriously.

My son has been to several different soccer training programs, and so far he has had only positive things to say about FTBL academy. Since starting with Rafael, his ball handing and touch as well as his confidence has improved noticeably, and my son actually enjoys going to classes.

Top notch kids soccer training! My son has shown significant improvement. Practices are structured, challenging and most importantly fun! Coaches have a wealth of soccer knowledge, they’re patient, and go the extra mile to build rapport and trust within the team.

Our previous soccer coach referred this place to me. I wasn't sure what to expect but Coach Rafael has been wonderful. We had our initial lesson for my daughter who is 10 and in club soccer. She immediately felt comfortable with him, he gives his honest opinion on what she needs and doesn't try to upsell anything which I appreciate. You can see his enthusiasm and passion as he coaches the kids. I'm looking forward watching my daughter develop and grow with his guidance and training.

FTBL Academy has been such a gift to my daughter. Her confidence level, skill set, and ability to work with a team while developing her individuality as a player have grown immensely since she began with this program.

Rafael provides excellent programming. He creates fun drills that target a wide range of skills. My son's ball handling and shooting skills have improved a lot already in the short couple months he's been going to FTBL Academy. Rafael is not only highly skilled himself but also knows how to coach the kids to improve themselves. He is super kind and encouraging with the kids too
