An Idea Is Born
An Idea Is Born
After close to 25 years of coaching at all levels of the Game, our Founder and Owner Victor Malagisi wanted to make a change in the world of youth soccer. No more pay to play, with less than qualified coaches. An accent does NOT make a coach.
A way to make this empowering change Coach Malagisi decided to start his own training company. In 2010, he started with a handful of players. Training them on small sided fields and focusing on individual skills, player confidence and ball control.
