“This is the best form of training. It’s very technical and no doubt it will make better technical players.”

“The Matrix training is a great way of developing your technique.”

“I wish this had been around when I was a kid! It helps youngsters to gain confidence and develop technically. These skills are often missing in English players.”

Simon Grayson, Blackpool Manager, ex Blackburn Rovers, Leeds

“Most kids here in the US don’t enjoy going to training. Charlie makes training fun. Even if you make a mistake, he never yells, he just tells you how to correct it. He’s also the most technically skilled coach I’ve ever seen.”

Brandon Manzonelli, New England Revolution, ex Villarreal

“The Matrix soccer programme offers a unique blend of elite football scenarios, with an innovative coaching philosophy. Such a programme is a contemporary progression from classic, technique-based drills.”

“My son James, aged 9, after only a few weeks became more comfortable on the ball and has gradually improved his technique. I believe Charlie and Matrix have given him the confidence to play intelligent and beautiful football.”

“As time went on, the drills became more complex, quicker and different skills were inserted. A small-sided game followed and my son Daniel must have touched the ball over 200 times.”
