We had good time during our 10 night stay while Ender was training with German coaches and played several games and tournament against Pro-Bundesliga Academies.

It was a good experience for Ender to experience the high intensity and fast paced games. It helped Ender elevate his game. Ender liked the experience a lot. We have gone back since, every summer. Coach Eddie was also able to get a private tryout with Pro Club Schalke04. Ender had the opportunity to showcase his talent to the Schalke04 coaches.

We think that it is important to visit Europe with Coach Eddie has great connections with many football clubs and can help you make the connection with your dream club. Thank you, Eddie for your support, coaching and guidance.

first travelling to Rome, Italy in 2022, and then travelling to Duisburg, Germany in 2023. Both trips were amazing experiences for Michael – on and off the pitch.

Through the GSD program, Michael set goals for himself, developed as a player, built trust and comradery with new teammates, made new lifelong friends, and pushed through challenges to find success on the field. He also had an amazing time in the stadium watching several professional Bundesliga games!

The coaching and facilities were top notch, and I really appreciated how players received guidance from a holistic perspective. The GSD players receive technical and tactical instruction, but they also learn about mental training and selfcare. Competing against European teams in the GSD Cup is probably a highlight for many players on the trip. For Michael this past year in Germany, scoring a PK and later winning the GSD cup for his age group was definitely the highlight of the trip!

despues de los juegos y entrenamientos en Alemania, más rápidos más fuertes y una sed de jugar … gracias !! Gracias!! Por este programa. Ellos están trabajando extra, están motivados pero parece que les cambio el chip.

For the well thought out program with details.
For the great staff members who has looked after the kids for their soccer skill development also attending to their personal needs. To be honest, I did have doubts about the program but your program plans changed my doubts to believe in your program before end of the first day. Looking forward to more experiences for the remainder of the program and wish GSD’s success for many years forward.

Big thank you to you and all the staff members of GSD program!

I was inspired by the clip you shared in the morning and had to leave few words.

Bo came into GSD
seeking the opportunity to learn from great teachers to improve his skills at soccer. While he had no clear idea of how he might fit
in with his skill level, he was determined to try his best and learn as much as he could.
What he experienced was very different from what we expected. What Bo experienced was like a masterclass in how to grow as a
young person. Yes, the soccer instruction was at the highest level he had ever seen. But you shifted his perspective. Instead of
centering first on himself, you providing a structure for him to build relationships with trust. You guided him to focus on the joy
that brought him to soccer in the first place, and then to apply himself with discipline and respect to serve those around him.
Bo exceeded my expectations over these past weeks by such a distance that I still cannot comprehend it. Through your program,
he centered on his goals. He built relationships with other incredible young men. He put his head down and worked as a team to
push through whatever challenges on the field. He played with passion and all his heart. And he strengthened his perspective
around how to apply the gifts that he has been given to live his life.
Our family wanted to thank every member of the GSD family for this wonderful experience.”

He is already living in
Valencia, Spain on his own at the young age of 14. I can honestly say that he is truly happy and he is living his dream. I believe
that his experience in Rome and in Duisburg were an integral part of his development. I know he was the team captain for both
teams (Rome & Duisburg) and that was something that he not only took very seriously but was honored to represent GSD. This
was a very big deal to him and our family as well, especially knowing that he was surrounded by great players…”
