What people say about us

Ever since my son started going for the football & futsal training sessions at Tactico Academy, the improvement has been remarkable. Even though the sessions are group sessions, the attention to every player’s need is very personal, direct and impactful. Tactico sessions are mainly about developing technical and thinking footballers but in a fun and enjoyable way for the kids!

Training with Tactico Academy has been a fantastic addition to my football development. The futsal sessions have really helped me improve my movement in tight spaces, think quicker, and find simple solutions to play out of pressure with one or two touches.

Coach Rafa is very friendly, professional, and genuinely cares about helping every player improve. One thing I really like is that he stops play to explain mistakes, making sure we understand what went wrong and how to avoid making the same mistake again. This has helped me become a smarter and more confident player.

Thank you, Coach, for all your support, patience, and dedication. I really enjoy every training session and would recommend Tactico Academy to any young footballer who wants to improve their game.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Tactico Academy. Our son (Kurt) who is 7 years old has grown so much, not only in his football skills but also in his confidence, discipline, and teamwork. 
Coach Rafael is an outstanding coach who is passionate, patient, and truly dedicated to helping every child reach their potential. His encouragement and attention to detail have made training both enjoyable and motivating. 

We highly recommend Tactico Academy!!

Ryan, Kurt's father
