RECENT TESTIMONIALS:
Alfie has endless knowledge of ball skills and the game. He can pinpoint specific areas that need to be worked on in a player’s game. He is patient with them and makes sure they understand what he is trying to teach them. He is genuine and sincere and it’s obvious he loves working with kids. Thank you for everything you have done for our daughter.

Alfie helped my daughter go from being a good athlete, to a soccer player who has advanced foot skills and a much better understanding of the game. His instruction gave her greater confidence in herself and the ability to compete against other top players. Alfie is the best trainer we have seen, bar none.

Hi Alfie, I thought you might like to know, out of only four freshmen to make junior varsity at Fairview, three were coached by you. They have her at forward and she is thriving and having a blast. Your teaching is sure bearing a lot of fruit for Paige, Hannah and Caitlin. Their skills and passing abilities really stand out. THANK YOU! Thought you might like to know, all the best.

"After working with Alfie for a summer, my daughter’s foot skills were phenomenal!!! She was losing opponents left and right! It was just what the doctor ordered! My kids have attended many other soccer camps in the Boulder Valley, but Alfie’s techniques have definitely made the most difference. He is unsurpassed in his technique and strategic training!"

After Alfie’s sessions, Soccer became a game of touching and texturing, along with the moves that create advantages. He made it so no Matter who Olivia works with she picks things up easily and is never surprised...Thanks so much.
Wayne Wagner. Olivia is currently with selected for ODP
Periodically, my daughter has worked with Alfie over the past three years and the time spent was very productive. Alfie is an excellent trainer and coach and he combines tactical training with strategic thinking. Today my daughter is an ODP forward -- Alfie was a great contributor to her success.

My daughter has been to a wide variety of soccer camps and none have taught her the foot skills that Alfie Hurley has. Alfie has a great repertoire of foot skills and maneuvers and does an outstanding job of instructing his students on how to use them. My daughter’s mastery of the skills that Alfie has taught has truly elevated her game. She now has great confidence and it shows. Thank you, Alfie for helping my daughter reach her potential as a player.
