TESTIMONIALS

 

 

My daughter really learned a lot working with Coach Otten. His coaching style really elevated her desire and skill set.... He provided detailed skills training...not just scrimmaging...and challenged and encouraged her to be her best. Ryan worked with her on gaining possession, creating space, ball distribution, foot skills and so much more.

Coach Otten has the innate ability to get the most out of his players.  He does not just expect them to compete; he expects them to be students of the game.  Our son's technical skills with the ball have improved dramatically in his time with Ryan.  Coach Otten drills the importance of footwork, speed, and agility and has made our son a more confident, more polished player.  He instructs his team about good spacing on the field and encourages them to switch the field in order to change the angle of attack. These are concepts that most younger players do not acknowledge.  On our son's team, they are concepts that have become second nature, and it's all due to Ryan's prowess as a coach who truly TEACHES.

My daughters have been playing competitive soccer for the last 13 years, and Coach Otten is by far the best coach my kids have ever had.

I want to thank Coach Otten for restoring the love of soccer back into my daughter. He is hands down the best soccer coach she has ever had. She was always ready to go to practice and looked forward to going. Coach Otten taught her so much in the little time he coached her. All of the girls truly respect him and have enjoyed every minute he was coaching them. Coach Otten has every bit of my respect. I am so sad it has to come to an end. Before we found out Coach Otten was going to another state, my daughter wanted me to find out what club he was going to because she was going there also. 

Words are not enough for the gratitude I feel for Coach Otten. Thank you so much for everything you did for my daughter. You will never know how much her and I both appreciated it.

-Melissa L., Sidney, OH

Under Coach Otten's guidance our daughter grew so much as a player, and she absolutely loved playing for him.  We have never seen her connect with a coach so quickly, and she would come back after every training session talking about how good it was.

Coach Otten is an amazing coach and my daughter has truly enjoyed her time with him. His coaching style and ability to relate to the girls was something honestly in 12 years of watching soccer I have not witnessed. My daughter has had a couple decent coaches but after watching Coach Otten, and witnessing his practices and game plan, the others don't compare.  I have never seen a group of girls put forth and work as hard as they did to become a team in such a short time.  I have to be honest, those late night practices and hour and ten minute drives were dreaded by myself and the girls, but never did they not want to be there!  They looked forward to having a great practice and to be honest I looked forward to watching... which in 12 years of watching soccer I have never done!
