Testimonials

My daughter, Mary, started training with Lee a little over two years ago as a beginner. Today
she is a polished U-9 who has developed tremendous skill set and love for the game. Lee's passion for the game, tremendous knowledge and state of the art teaching skills show up in all the players he works with. He is simply the best coach I have seen in any sport.

I want to tell you how much I appreciate all you have done for all my girls, especially Callista.  She has learned so much from you being her coach.  Thank you for taking the time to help her as an individual and as part of the team.  You have helped
her gain alot of confidence on and off the field.  She has loved having you for a coach and will miss you.

Thank you for training Kyrstin and Callista.  Callista's soccer skills have improved greatly with your one on one training. They both have really enjoyed the time that you spent with them.  You have made it alot of fun to train and at the same time have made them work, which isn't an easy thing to do.  They have learned alot about working out and about how to eat right.  They will continue to make correct choices for fitness because of the ideas you have instilled in their minds.

Thank you for going beyond just training the girls and actually being interested in how they are doing as individuals.  Thank you
for being so thoughtful of Brianna, by talking to her and bringing your dogs for her to play with.  You are a wonderful person and
it has been a real pleasure being associated with you.

Good luck in Charleston.  I wish all the best for you.

I have two children, 13 and 10, who have played soccer since the age of 4.  We moved to Georgia leaving an incredible soccer experience and joined the Augusta Arsenal Soccer Club in the summer of 2008.  My daughter has played now for the last year on Lee Powell’s U11 Girls Academy team.  Lee has provided her with more than just professional training and coaching.   She has grown as both a person and player developing her individual skills, but moreover has learned the value of team play.  Lee has motivated her to play hard, support her teammates, respect the opponents, have fun, and all the while really enjoying and learning the game of soccer.  She has participated in his Speed, Agility, Quickness camps, Skills Sessions, Striker Camp, 3 v 3 camps, and participated in 3 v 3 tournaments under his coaching also. To improve within the game of soccer, it is important to have fitness and sport specific training and drills to concentrate on that are relative to the game.  Lee is precise at tailoring those drills and making them so relevant to soccer.  Jessica has learned that soccer is so much more than just playing time on the field.   She has learned that warming up and stretching, speed training, agility training, and cool down are equally as important as practice and play.  She has learned so much and has become a better soccer player due to his dedication, knowledge, professionalism, and passion for the sport of soccer. We have never experienced such an impressive program.

I participated in Coach Lee’s High School Camp this summer.  I liked the program because of its diversity, challenges, and new stretches and conditioning techniques.  The camp was useful and I am in better condition.  Thanks, Eric Older.

Coach Lee’s High School Camp was a wonderful experience and a motivational program that prepared my year around soccer player for his next soccer season.  Coach Lee has a variety of exercises and stretches that develop and maintain flexibility and strength for all athletes in all sports.  The best part of the program is that it is fun and constantly building on each session.  My son not only maintained, he definitely developed more strength and flexibility. Coach Lee not only worked with the athlete’s physical preparedness, but taught them the importance of nutrition in playing sports and keeping fit.  I have been telling my son for years about the importance of fruit and vegetables, but until Coach Lee told him, he never listened.  I highly recommend Coach Lee’s High School Camp, for the year around athlete and for kids who want to be become physically fit.

I have been using alot of Lee's drills and I'm definately stronger and faster than before. My 20m dash was down to 3.0 from 3.2secs. my worst time lately has been 3.4 secs, but that was due to a really poor start. I knew instantly that it was bad but ran the rest anyway and it's still a good time. I just love accelerating and sprinting. The best thing I have learnt is how to run correctly, the whole energy leak thing aswell. Watching athletics and learning the very basics again has improved my speed and made me think about form and technique. It's amazing how much there is to see when you break it down. When I learn a new skill I break it down and then bring it all together, by thinking of speed as a skill and breaking it down it has given me a new perspective on running. This has given me a fresh view of all sports.

I taught Dewi (my son who's just turned 6) 'Tall n Fall' and he loved it. He says he wants to play rugby and all this basic movement stuff applies in rugby. I want to get him some togs/cleats and get him running correctly, he is fast, but with a small adjustment could be that much faster. As far as skills are concerned, speed is king.

Thanks so much for everything!  And thanks again for all that you have done with Samuel this summer.  It has been VERY beneficial to him and us as well.  It has been priceless to see him regain his love of the game that had for so long been his passion, as well as helping him to overcome fear of injury.  He seems to have come so far over the past couple of months and has truly enjoyed all the time he has spent w/ you, Nick, Shack, & Sachin!  Keep up the great work!

Lee has been training my daughter for about one year and her level of technical ability has improved dramatically.  More importantly, her self-confidence on and off the field has soared.  She is a different player today because of Lee's ability to capitalize on her natural athleticism and effectively channel and hone it to achieve success.  She's grown up around the game and she loves soccer now more than ever.  We are very grateful to have had the opportunity to have Lee work with our daughter. 

Profession :

Lee is a true professional!  A couple of years ago my son was coached by Kian Brownlee.  Kian liked my sons' footskills, 1v1 play and vision of the field but felt he lacked speed.  He recommended private sessions with Lee to improve his speed of play and speed to the ball and taking on players 1v1.  My son has improved significantly in all of these areas of play because of Lee's training.  His flat out sprint speed has seen the most improvement.  Sprint speed is not only important during play, but ALWAYS evaluated at tryouts.  The greatest thing about Lee's training is the universal benefit gained for other sports.  My son not only plays soccer for the Arsenal club but also for his Jr. High School.  In addition he plays basketball and tennis at school.  His training with Lee benefitted him for all of his activities.  Lee utilizes a wide variety of tools and techniques which keep his training sessions from becoming boring and mundane.  I can not thank Lee enough for all the improvements he has made to my sons strength, speed and most of all to his confidence!  Lee is very busy but always found a way to work with us when schedules conflicted.  Sign up for Lee's training!  You will see both immediate and long term benefit to your players speed, strength and game playing.

Profession :

I recently hosted a camp together with Lee (SAQ/SAGA GK Camp.) Lee's professionalism, knowledge, and enthusiasm towards speed training is second to none. I think that I may have learned more about speed training than the campers. I can't wait for another opportunity to work with Lee, he was excellent.
