Coaches are great at identifying strengths and areas for improvement in players. Work with them in a variety of ways that keep training fresh and participants motivated. My child always looks forward to sessions with TSA! Sweats, has fun and improves.

My keeper daughter started working with TSA to improve her goal kicks, which Patrick was able to do in no time. TSA then started working with her on her foot skills, which have grown considerably since. With the help of TSA, my daughter is more confident in games using her feet and distributing the ball. Thank you TSA!

Patrick Colgan is a fabulous trainer. He is knowledgeable, patient and incorporates skills that are position specific. He took the time to communicate with my daughters coach to find ways to help her enhance her performance in games. I highly recommend him.

Coach Patrick was so patient in working with my son. He was attentive, encouraging and made my son feel comfortable. He gave us some suggestions about which app to use for my son to practice his foot skills at home. We are looking forward to training with him again.

My son finished his first session and was super happy. He said he wished Coach Patrick was his team coach. He liked that Coach asked him what he wanted to work on and he said it was serious but fun too!

Frequently asked questions

Typically we have a phone conversation on what the athlete needs.  We then set up an introductory training session where we can evaluate the athlete.  After the first training session we can collaborate on what package best meets the athlete's needs.

I have multiple coaching licenses through USC and USSF.

I hold an MS in Coaching and a MA in Sport-Exercise Psychology.

All of our coaches on staff are licensed by either USC or USSF.

Different coaches have different rates at The Sharpened Athlete.  We do offer packages to bring down prices and if you work with a small group we can bring down the prices even further.

As a team coach I realized that every player on my team needed individual attention that I was unable to do in a team atmosphere.  Being a private or small group soccer trainer has enabled me to help players focus on what they need to help get to the next level of their development.  Individual attention is key to success in any instructional environment.

I have done 3 year old classes all the way through aspiring professional players.

I suggest having multiple conversations with trainers to make sure you enjoy their style.
