Trevor Parker, President of Touch and Technique Soccer, has very strong beliefs in the fundamentals of techniques that are needed to play the game of soccer. Trevor, a native of England, believes that a very good first touch and great technique are the skills that are needed to start developing into a very good soccer player.

“ The skill level of a player is the most important part in the game of soccer. If a player has the basic skills, i.e. control, dribbling, passing, shooting, heading, then by the time that player reaches the age of 11, the coach can start to implement sessions that have a tactical element to them. This allows the player to grow both technically and tactically at a very early age”   

“As a very small player, I was very fortunate at a young age, to learn the technical skills that were needed to get away from the bigger, less skilled players. This was due to a very good youth team coach that I had, at that time. He was a great master of the ball and would show us the exact skill that he wanted us to achieve. I would then practice that skill in my own time until I was able to perfect it”

Touch and Technique Soccer has been set up for it's coaching staff to be able to work with players that have the love and desire for the game. Individual and small group development will allow the player/s to improve their technical skills at a much faster rate than in a large group or team situation. The mechanics of the specific skills are broken down to improve at a much faster rate.
