Elite Touch Training
The Story

A Lifelong
Love of the Game

Elite Touch Training was founded on a simple belief: every player deserves focused, personalized coaching that meets them where they are. After years of playing at a competitive levels, I saw a gap — players who wanted to improve but couldn't get the individual attention they needed in a team environment.

Elite Touch Training was built to fill that gap. Every session is designed around the individual — their age, their skill level, their goals. Whether you're a 6-year-old touching a ball for the first time or a 17-year-old pushing for a college roster spot, or the professional game, the approach is the same: focused work, honest feedback, and real progress.

The Mission

Develop the Player.
Grow the Person.

Soccer is a vehicle. The real work is building confidence, discipline, and the ability to compete under pressure. Those qualities don't just show up on the pitch — they carry into every part of a player's life.

Every session at Elite Touch Training is built around four pillars: first touch, movement off the ball, decision-making under pressure, and finishing. Master these, and everything else follows.

Common Questions

What to Expect

What age groups do you train?
Players ages 5 and up. Sessions are structured differently for each age group — younger players focus on fun and fundamentals, while older players work on technical precision and competitive edge.
Do I need any prior experience?
None at all. Complete beginners are welcome. The first session is always an assessment so training can be tailored to exactly where you are right now.
How long are sessions?
Standard sessions run 60 minutes. Extended 90-minute sessions are available for advanced players or those working on multiple focus areas.
Where do sessions take place?
We are based in Noblesville, Indiana. Location details are confirmed when your player is registered and ready to go. Indoor options are available during the winter.
How often should I train?
Once a week is a solid starting point. Players who train 2–3 times per week see the fastest improvement. Scheduling is flexible — 5 days a week.
