"Martin, I just wanted to say thank you for the outstanding training sessions with Evelyn and Teddy this summer. Your ability to push them outside of their comfort zones while continuing to build their confidence is something I really appreciate. I love how intentional you are about having them use both feet and not letting them take the easy way out. Even more than that, you stay patient and keep working with them until the movement becomes muscle memory instead of something they have to think through every time. Great coaches don’t just teach skills, they build confidence, discipline, and belief. You’re exceptional at your craft, and it’s obvious how much you care about helping kids reach their potential. Thanks for investing in Evelyn and Teddy and helping them become better players every session. We appreciate you!

I am Manav Gill founder of Seattle NextGen Academy with 10+ years of coaching and 20+ years of playing experience. My coaching background includes Seattle Sounders youth Seattle united finishing Academy, High School and College Soccer. I help beginners through competitive players improve first touch passing dribbling and finishing the first lesson includes a skill assessment and goal discussion followed by personalized training that builds technique, confidence, and game awareness.

"I had 4 sessions with Manav Gill and the amount of improvement that I saw in my soccer skills was incredible. I walked onto the field with some knowledge of soccer but after a couple sessions, I could already notice a huge difference in my confidence, ball control, passing, and overall understanding of the game. Manav was very patient and made sure to explain everything clearly while also pushing me to improve every session. Each session was different and focused on areas that I personally needed to work on. I would definitely recommend training with Manav to anyone looking to improve their soccer skills and become a more confident player.
