Over the last five years we have trained eight players who have gone on to play professionally. More than all of the similar soccer camps in VA combined.
Here is a letter from one of the players attending.
Hello Dimitar how are you? This is Patrick Peron we spoke earlier today on the phone.
As I have told you, I will be transferring to Italy in late August to attempt a career in professional soccer. I will be finishing school in late June and will have nothing to do for the summer until My try-outs begin in August-September as the season with my team is coming to a close.
I have always had the highest of respect for you and gratitude for you as you have taught me many skills needed in order to play soccer. I don't think I would be as good as I am now if it were not for you.
I kindly ask you if it is possible if I may come and train with you this summer so that I can be prepared for when I go to Italy.
...
Dimitar you are the best coach that I have had and I know that training with you this summer will prepare me and give me an edge to perform better than the competition once I arrive in Italy. I deeply hope that you will accept.
May God Bless You
- Your Friend, your Neighbor, and above all your Student.
