“Having played for Chris Martinez at both the youth and professional level, I can confidently say there are very few coaches with the soccer understanding, ability to communicate concepts/themes of play, and relate to players as well as Marti. As a result of his extensive soccer knowledge gained both as a coach and player, Marti is excellent at identifying what aspects of a player’s game need improvement, creating a plan to work on those areas, and executing on implementing those improvements. Regardless of skill-level, you will be a better player as a result of working with Chris Martinez.” TEAMS PLAYED FOR: Charleston Battery, Memphis 901 FC, Sporting Kansas City, University of Denver, Real Colorado.

"Coach Mike Wright had an immense impact on my soccer career. I started playing at three, and by five, I was lucky to be on his team. For the next seven years, he shaped my development, teaching me the fundamentals—juggling, dribbling, passing, and first touch—while instilling the techniques needed to succeed at the highest level. His mentorship gave me direction when I didn’t know my next step, and he remains one of the greatest coaches I’ve ever had. His influence helped me become the player I am today." TEAMS PLAYED FOR: Portland Timbers, University of Denver, Real Colorado.

"Coach Mike saw my potential from the beginning and believed in me, even when I struggled to see it myself. He didn’t just coach me—he invested in me as a player and person. He taught me a new position where I could thrive, helping me make an impact on the field. More than improving my skills, he gave me the confidence to push past my limits. His belief in me extended beyond high school, seeing my future at the collegiate level long before I did. I’m incredibly grateful for his guidance and trust, which shaped me both as an athlete and as a person."
