Coaching as part of a staff is a different experience from just individual or small group training. Again, I’ve been very lucky to work with some of the best coaches in the country. Here are a few testimonials from a handful of them.

“Vasili’s training sessions are of the highest quality. His instruction is thoughtful, dynamic, and specifically tailored to each goalkeeper. Vasili has trained goalkeepers of every level all the way through the pros, and his academy is one of the best in New England.”
jon delano//associate head coach//University of Pennsylvania
“Vasili has an excellent understanding of the technical requirements of the GK position and uses very effective methods in teaching those concepts. Vasili’s disposition and demeanor make him an excellent communicator and teacher.”

“Vasili is the rare coach who possesses the patience and compassion required to mentor youth soccer players with the technical acumen and attention to detail required to inspire Division I players in college soccer’s top conference. I can’t think of another individual I have met in the soccer world who has the distinct skillsets needed to introduce the 5-year-old to the sport, train the 14-year-old to reach the next level, and prepare the major college player for a pro career. ”
