Testimonials: Soccer

Our sons Erik and Ben are both dedicated soccer players, determined to reach their potential and be the best that they can be.

A friend recommended Go Sports Performance as a terrific cross-training option, and over the last two years it has been everything we hoped for and more. Soccer requires endurance, quick bursts of speed, and quick feet and agility. Soccer fans know, there's also a lot of upper body contact - pushing, pulling, and fighting for position. Go Sports has helped in all of these areas. Erik and Ben are much, much quicker now and can get to balls left in space that they simply would not have been able to get to. Beyond straight-line speed, their ability to change directions quickly, accelerate, and move fast sideways or backpedalling makes them shine on the soccer field.

The strength training might seem to be less applicable to soccer, but that's not the case. At the very least, the resistance training helps round out athletes that find themselves specializing in one or two sports at younger ages these days. Strength training helps prevent injury, too. Erik tore a ligament in his ankle, and his orthopedic doctor encouraged him to go to Go Sports to strengthen his ankle after rehab and help prevent leg injuries in the future. On top of that, the strength they have developed helps on the field as they battle for position and the ball.

Finally, the results speak for themselves. Erik and Ben both came to high level soccer at an older age than many, and so started on the lowest team in their club. Over the last two years, with the help of Go Sports, they have both reached high level teams in their club and are enjoying tremendous success!

Thanks Go Sports! - Sharla and Todd Starker

Training gave me the physical means that I needed to excel in soccer throughout high school and the opportunity to continue my career at the Division 1 Level. As a female, physical fitness is a huge component of my success; Nick understood this and was dedicated to pushing me to my physical limits, which helped me grow mentally.
Each training session provided me with new challenges, and I was never bored. The training is second to none and I do not hesitate to recommend it to anyone who wants to compete at a higher level.

Dear GO: Sports
With all of the support and encouragement you all give Alexis, I thought it appropriate to let you know how much it means. Alexis has shown so much progress in so many ways, especially her confidance and her ability. She looks forward to coming to work with all of you and that in itself is a priceless gift. Thanks!

The training program has really helped me become stronger so I am not pushed around on the field. The physical fitness that I have attained by training here has greatly helped me on the field.

I don’t have to worry about being fast enough or having enough endurance to play the entire game. I love the functional training, because it is varied and never boring - which makes working out very fun!”
