Individual and Group Training with UEFA "A" License Professional Soccer Coach and former pro player, Zoran Lomic

Field Players and Goalkeepers
Players with aspirations to play college or pro soccer should be engaged in regular, independent training for fitness as well as vital individual skills such as body control, balance, foot speed, first step quickness, agility, linear speed mechanics, flexibility and more. The personal level would be dependent on time of year and club activity levels.
As a former pro player, I lived and experienced what it takes to develop in a professional way. As a coach, with extensive experience and
