TESTIMONIES

"Our son, Sam Robinson, thoroughly enjoyed his participation in Coach Johnson's training program. Having an opportunity to learn ball handling skills from a different coach and practice with kids of varying age levels gave him more confidence. The conditioning work was more than Sam had been exposed in the past; it was hard work but he always described it as fun." — Kate & John Robinson


Neil Johnson's Soccer/Speed and Agility training has produced the most significant improvements in young athletes motor skills that I have seen to date. Neil and his staff work with young players in small groups to ensure maximum exposure and oversight is provided to each individual player.

Neil 's soccer clinics/Camps have enabled my team to reach miletstones on the State level we thought were not possible. The training curricula are appropriate for the very young players and also for those competing on the collegiate level and beyond. His own teams accomplisments on the Collegiate, High School, and Club Sport level provide "proven outcomes" on the results these training sessions generate for young players.

I consider Neil's training clinics/camps a must for young players in our program who want to compete with their peers on the highest level. — Mark Savini, U14M Coach MUSC, 2008 U14M State Challenge Cup Champions


We have two boys that play travel soccer and participate in Coach Johnson's training. He gives our boys a different voice from their current coaches. Coach Johnson's style is calm, positive, and reassuring. Coach Johnson does not sit idle on the sidelines. He joins the play and helps the kids with their decision making as he runs next to them. When a child is having difficulty learning a new soccer move, I have seen Coach Johnson demonstrate the move, with hints ,that has always ended in that child learning the move. When we look back at our boys "big jump" in their soccer ability it started after Coach Johnson's training. The biggest compliment comes from our boys when they tell us to hurry up, they don't want to be late for Coach Johnson's training. — Jeff and Kathie Richardson


My wife (Linda) and I are very pleased with the progress that both Conor and Emily have made by virtue of your instruction at soccer clinics. They enjoy the experience very much, and actually look forward to going. One afternoon, Conor had a ton of homework to do, and Linda and I told him he could skip training with you to get it done, but he insisted on going as he didn't want to miss the training. The homework got done too. Now, that says something. They are developing their soccer skills very nicely. Thanks! — Gary Kennedy


Speaking as both a parent and a soccer coach, I have been very impressed with the results that my daughters have obtained with Neil's training methods. They both showed a rapid increase in ball skills, accuracy of their passing, power and accuracy of their shots and the ability to make 1 v 1 moves. What separates Neil from all of the other coaches and trainers that I have seen and worked with is his ability to connect with the player and to make hard work seem like fun. I would not hesitate to recommend Neil as a soccer instructor to any player that is committed to getting better. — Dave Hartenbaum


The training Neil has provided has expanded Casey’s love for the game. She is showing more confidence in herself, which is transferring to confidence on the ball. The way she is playing now has become more creative and I don’t think she has realized it yet. Also, your coaching / training skills provided to my older son are a major reason for Frankie’s College accolades. Team MVP at West Chester University and All League PSAC recognition. Thank You. — Frank DeMas, President of Pennridge Yellow Jacket Soccer Assoc.


Not only did our daughter gain soccer skills and strength, we saw a noticeable improvement in her confidence and tenacity during games. She learned that she could push herself farther than she knew. Exposure to different coaching styles and a variety of players was also a benefit. — Sandy Demas


The clinics are great and totally worth it! I use the skills all of the time and feel much stronger. It has helped my confidence.
Casey Demas, U12


After seeing the new skills developed in a teammate who attended one of Coach Neil’s Camps , I enrolled my daughter in the next session. His training techniques and inspiration helped motivate Jessica to achieve her goal of playing for the U-13 Olympic Development Team. At her request, she is back in the camp for a third time and continues to refine and improve her play. Based on improvement in all aspects of her game, I also enrolled my younger daughter, Shelby. The advancement in Shelby’s skills from that camp was so notable that three of her teammates also enrolled. Both Jessica and Shelby were ecstatic about the experience, training and skills they obtained in the camp, and as a parent, it is rewarding to see the increased confidence and use of their newly developed skills transferred onto the big field. — Zigmund Karpa, parent of 2 ecstatic soccer players


My son has participated in a number of Neil's soccer skills development programs. As a result, I have noticed tremendous improvement in his ball handling skills. His club team coach has also seen the growth and commented that Michael has established himself as one of the better skilled ball handlers on the team. I also asked Michael what he thought of the training program and he had one comment, "It's fun!" So, without hesitation, I highly recommend Neil's soccer training clinics to those who wish to further develop their soccer skills. — Robert Shepherd


From a parents' perspective: Both Kevin (U12) and Ryan (U14) have participated in clinics you have ran over the last couple of years ... The growth in their development was very noticeable ... Following the clinics both played at a higher level compared to the season before ... Ryan has improved from being a substitute player, to becoming a starting player his team counts on. Kevin’s improvement in his technical ability has been a real joy to watch applied on the big field against other Premier level players. High quality training sessions, real time interaction and correction along with your personal touch have been the keys for the kids’ improvement. Thank you.

From a players' perspective: Both really have a lot of fun playing soccer at your training clinics. They like the manner in which you provide real time interaction and correction when they do something wrong. They have developed more confidence with the ball and look forward to applying these skills on the big field. — John Schoell


The soccer skills and speed/agility training clinics coach Johnson delivers is great! I have participated in many of his programs since freshman at high-school and have loved every minute of training! The program is intense, well-structured and organized, allowing each player to get personalized attention. Coach Johnson is able to teach soccer and fitness fundamentals to players at all levels. I have improved my soccer skills and conditioning which has helped my game tremendously! Each and every session fun! If you want to take your soccer skills and conditioning to the next level, I highly recommend this program. — Sophie Eiger, Junior at North Penn High School and Montgomery United Premier U-17
