The 7 Peaks Soccer Training Story
7Peaks Soccer Training is the answer to what most club players and families know as the "business" of soccer. After experience as a director of coaching for Waza FC, and a performance director/MLS Next coach for the MI Jaguars I experienced how many kids were not getting all the technical training they needed. I started PTC in 2021 to help more kids, and focus on proper technique with a targeted goal in mind. I also started a journey of becoming a professional coach thereafter. The process included coaching a few semi-professional teams before working with USL Championship DCFC as their performance coach.. In August 2025, PTC was rebranded to form 7Peaks Soccer Training.
Our Philosophy
We believe in a holistic approach to developmental training. This training environment is filled with purpose, passion, and energy. Small group training will focus on coordination, balance, technical skill without pressure, and technical skill with pressure. We train all players, from beginners to highly advanced. We work with MLS Next, ECNL, Girls Academy, E64, and MSPSP, to name a few. Players training at Peak have moved onto ACC, Big 12, Big 10, Atlantic 10, SEC, MAC, and Horizon NCAA Division 1 schools. We have been fortunate to help professionals during this time as well while coaching in the USL Championship and pushing players further. We understand that we are part of the players soccer journey and each soccer club also adds ton of work for these players to develop. "It takes a village" and we are here to enhance the journey with reaching targeted training goals.
Our Methods
Each small group session consists of 4 sections while they are similar in structure, each session requires trainers to adapt to meet the needs of the group. Each 10-week course has a curriculum that we follow vigorously.
Activation: Part 1
5-10 minutes of a dynamic warm up that includes resistance bands, agility, balance, coordination, and motor skills.
Technical (Unopposed): Part 2
10-30 minutes of technique taught on the ball to be successful and build confidence.
Technical (Opposed): Part 3
10-30 minutes of pressure on the ball while working on technique taught within part 2.
Core/Strength: Part 4
5-10 minutes of core and strength work that is specific to the function of the game with a cool down.
Our Purpose is your Passion
