About Our Soccer Training
At Second Half Soccer we understand the importance of being able to finish a game you start. It’s imperative to be able to compete at the same level in the last 5 minutes of a game as you do in the first 5 minutes of the game. That’s why our training sessions start with conditioning, then transition into ball control, and end with ball control in position-specific training.
Whether you are training for a 9, 10, 7 or 1 position, we have you covered all over the field. We have specific trainings for all positions on the pitch. We understand that the bulk of the training results come from what our clients do outside of trainings, on their own. We push for leadership and hold the players accountable on what they do on their own. There are no successful players that didn’t do training on their own, all players have to have a passion to train alone sometimes to really hone in on their specific skills.
What parents & players say….
The satisfaction of our clients is what sets our training apart. Here are a few of our reviews:
“In 2017 Ana had a rough year with 2 knee dislocations just months apart… Ana finished [her first] session tired and sweaty and asked when she could train with him again. We knew it was a great fit. He’s tough but could really sympathize with Ana’s situation.”

“Coach Matt is fantastic. My son looks forward to his sessions and in just 6 weeks we have seen a difference in his strength, confidence, ball handling and fitness levels. I can not recommend him highly enough.”

“Excellent soccer training! Matt is tough but encouraging and really knows his stuff! He has a background of personal training and group fitness, and he is knowledgeable and empathetic towards those with sports injuries because he’s been there. He knows what to do to get you playing like yourself again (actually, even better)! Train with Coach Matt if you really want to learn, get in shape, and improve your game!”
