LeftFoot Coaching Academy is a renowned provider of youth soccer training in Minnesota. We’ve pioneered a successful, scientific-based training method, informed by our decades of experience in sports performance training and science. Creating great players is our unique gift, and we continue to revisit our programs to ensure that our clients get the results they specifically want.
The First and The Visionary
Being one of the most recognized youth soccer academies in Minnesota has led us to work with thousand of players through the ten years since our founding. This has allowed us to identify the challenges that most young players face when training in a large camp, club or team between ages 10-21. Our coaching and development program breaks down age and skill barriers for our students, and veers away from outdated soccer pedagogy, to make their training comfortable and something they look forward to every single day.

Year Long
We typically work with an exclusive clientele to manage winter, spring and summer programming over the youth journey through soccer. Our curriculum spans five years of total youth soccer development.
Exclusive
With limited space, flexible options, we utilize a variety of business models to structure coaching services. We only work with 12 players in a session with 5 coaches. for a 3:1 ratio with Master Coach support in our Academy Series progressions.
Seasonal
What works for U9’s in the fall doesn’t work with HS Seniors in the summer. Seasons change, programs stay the same and different options for different people.
Structured
Our tuition packages range between $900 – $2,500 for the year. That’s why we have a structured methodology; not only in our coaching curriculum, but in our process for working with new clients.

Coaches Deserve More
Coaches are everything to a player. They are phsyician, inspirtation, guidance, strength and leadership. They can crush the spirt or lift a child to beyond anything they belived was possible. It’s the economics behind coaching that we have to change if we’ll create a way for coaches to give back to children in sustainable, enriching and positive ways.
