Coach Cory
We had our first training session Coach Nicholas and it was outstanding. From the very beginning, he was welcoming, organized, and clearly passionate about teaching soccer. In just one lesson, you can already see his ability to build confidence and develop real skills. I haven’t seen my son this excited about soccer in a while
