Loved by Athletes, Trusted by Parents.
Seriously! But don’t take our word for it, here are some things people have to say about us.
We can’t say enough good things about this program. Our daughter went from being nervous about attacking down field to leading her team in scoring! Working with Coach Green has helped us develop her comfort level on the ball and made her a better, more confident player overall.

My daughter signed up for a club team and while she enjoys it, she wanted to get a bit more exposure to the game of soccer. 1stKick has helped me move from cheerleader to coach and given us a lot of quality time together. The resources and amount of material out there for parents and kids has helped tremendously.

1stKick was exactly what my son needed. Kicking around with him in the backyard and seeing how much fun he is having has been the best part of the experience. I recommend the program to friends and family alike. Thanks Coach!
