"As a player, Kevin was perhaps the most complete player to ever play for me at Lehigh and his career as a professional player and now coach align with his skill sets I witnessed as a captain at Lehigh. My only disappointment is that we don't live closer to Jackson Soccer Development programs because my four sons would benefit from Kevin's vision, teaching and expertise as a coach. Kevin Jackson is arguably one of the best youth trainers in the region and knows exactly what youth players need to aspire to the college, professional and national team levels." - Dean Koski, Head Men's Soccer Coach, Lehigh University "Jackson Soccer Development provides an age appropriate hands-on soccer program for our preschool and kindergarten students. Each class is full of activity where the children are always on the move maneuvering through an obstacle course, passing the ball, or practicing one of the many other drills or games! The coaches at JSD are organized and prepared for each class making JSD a highlight of many of our students' week." - Sharon McCuen, Campus Director, The O'Quinn Schools of Porter Gaud |
"Futsal is a wonderful way for players to emphasize ball control, passing and working in tight spaces, plus helps greatly on the mental side and making quick decisions. I am a very strong advocate and helped found United States Youth Futsal and still continue to work camps and our club, Sporting Kansas City, recently built two new Futsal courts for Kansas City, Kansas youths. Elite Futsal Charleston is a great example of the success and place of Futsal in our country, offering the ability to play year-round and for any age group or skill level. I played for the United States in the now Futsal World Cup in 1989 and taking home the bronze medal is one of my favorite memories as a player. With clubs like Elite Futsal Charleston, the hopes of getting back to international prominence on the world stage is attainable, but learning the many idiosyncrasies of the sport along the way and having fun is equally as important.” - Peter Vermes, Head Coach, MLS Sporting Kansas City |
