Smitty is absolutely amazing! Hes been training my 9-year-old soccer player, and the progress has been incredible. He makes every session fun, focused, and full of energy while still pushing for growth and improvement. My daughter has gained so much confidence, skill, and understanding of the game. Smitty truly knows how to connect with kids and bring out their best. Highly recommend him to any parent looking for a top-notch coach who cares about both development and attitude!

Caleb has been an amazing coach for my son. He is extremely knowledgeable and detailed given his high-level soccer background. He has helped my son with his individual development and gives him tips on strategies to use in game. He is also professional and punctual. A true role model for an aspiring youth soccer player.

Coach Smitty is amazing! In just a few sessions, we have already seen significant improvement in my daughters technical skills and ball handling, but more importantly weve seen her confidence increase so much! Coach is patient, kind, and encouraging. He provides drills that push her and challenge her to grow. My daughter loves every session! We are so glad we found Coach Smitty!!

My son plays for FC Legends, and we were looking for a way to take his skill set to the next level. After noticing a few standout playersboth on his team and other competitive teamswe started asking around. One name kept coming up: Coach Smitty.After a great initial phone call, I was sold. His energy, honesty, and drive stood out. He made it clear: if my son showed up ready to work, hed see a difference. And he was right. Weve only had three sessions so far, but after just two, I could already see a shiftnot just in technique, but in attitude. One small adjustment to foot positioning made a noticeable impact on his power and accuracy which gave him an immediate confidence booster!Of course, he has a great team coach, but with the chaos of group practice, its tough to get that one-on-one refinement. Thats where Coach Smitty comes infilling in the gaps and elevating my sons game.Every kid responds differently, but after seeing what Coach Smitty has done with others, were confident hell help bring out the best in our son too. Were so thankful to have found him and excited to see the continued growth ahead!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My training sessions are tailored to each player’s individual skill level, position, and development goals. I focus on technical skill development, including close control, quick touches in tight spaces, and the ability to stay composed, make smart decisions, and play out of pressure. Every session is designed to build confidence, improve ball mastery, and help players perform at a higher level in game situations.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
With over 15 years of high-level playing experience and 300+ five-star reviews, I bring proven experience and a personalized approach to player development. I played professionally for the Pittsburgh Riverhounds in the USL Championship, competed at the NCAA Division I level at Southern Methodist University (SMU), and represented the United States on both the U-17 and U-20 Youth National Teams.
My goal is to use my experience at the highest levels of the game to help players sharpen their technical skills, build confidence, improve their soccer IQ, and reach their full potential.
