YPT Residence Program

Dear John,

Thank you very much for all your hard work putting together a fantastic program in difficult circumstances. Our son Luke thoroughly enjoyed his experience again this year (coach Miguel from Benfica was even harder on the players than coach Phil, from Manchester United, was last year, which Luke never thought would be possible!). He only wished the camp could last longer. Coach Miguel never stopped coaching and always expected the best attitude from his players on and off the field. Luke enjoyed the camaraderie and mutual respect that developed between players and coach during this short week.

All in all this was again the best experience he has had.

The YPT experience for Adam this summer was identical to the previous year (2008) which was Adams first year at YPT, in that the entire experience was excellent and beyond parallel

YPT is by far the best camp that Adam has experienced. The quality of the coaching and players in attendance make this camp highly effective and enjoyable.

I honestly do not have much I can add in terms of what should be improved, etc. My advice would be to not muddle with the formula too much….it is working like a charm.

Let us know if Man United wants Adam for a tryout, other than that, I hope to see you next summer!

John,

Based on Justin’s feedback and what I saw on Friday of the Championship games and closing remarks / rewards ceremony the YPT experience you offered was by far the best soccer training camp we have been involved with to date. Justin has participated in UK Elite, Rutgers and Villanova programs in the past but has been disappointed because of the wide range of skills that the participants had resulting in the coaching staff training at the lowest common denominator. The talent you had participating in terms of the boys and the excellent training staff really pushed Justin to excel to the next level. I just wanted to thank you for developing such a high caliber program. He is hoping to be offered a position next summer and if he is invited back he will certainly attend. The four hour ride to and from Salisbury was well worth it.

Thanks again for offering a world class training option for boys that are seriously committed to the beautiful game. He is really fired up to continue to grow and excel at Football.

John:

Another superior year of the highest quality training available to US youth premier players. Tanner had a fantastic experience again this year and the talent level of those at the camp was outstanding; not to mention the fine values and integrity of the boys. The mix of international coaches that executed the training and evaluated the players exceeded expectation yet again!!!!! Keep of the great work.

My son, Tommy Griffin, attended this year's program for the second year in a row. He says it is the best soccer experience he's ever had. We hope to continue to send him.

Thanks.
