Benefits for Players and Coaches
"The Penfield Strikers have had the pleasure of having Brian and Shawn work with our keepers for over a year now. They have held sessions for our U12+ keepers as well as our U11 and below teams. The U12+ keepers have clearly benefited from the training provided. They have gained confidence which is critical to success as a goalie. The Strikers require all U10 and below players to take a turn in goal. Brian and Shawn held training sessions for the younger teams which were very well received. They also held training for our coaches on the goalie position. Immediate feedback from our coaches regarding these sessions was a request for more of them which is as positive a comment you can get. They have been excellent resources for our club!"

Great Training for Our Club
"Our club, Niagara Pioneer, engaged Niagara Elite Soccer Academy for two goalkeeper clinics this year. Brian and Shawn were excellent with all of the GK's, and provided great training. They also provided the team coaches with great tips on training keepers. Brian followed up with us several times after the clinics to reinforce some of the training tips. We have now worked with them for several years and hope to continue to work with them in the future."

Praise for Coach Elniski
"Coach Elniski has been a valued member of our coaching staff. The goalkeeper position is often overlooked. Since bringing Coach Elniski into our youth travel program the quality of our goalkeepers has improved greatly. Coach Elniski's skill, teaching methodology, and ability to connect with the players are very good."
