What the families say.

My son has traveled with Coach Andrew and USIFC to the Gothia Cup for two years in a row, and both experiences have been incredible. He absolutely loves the soccer, but what has impressed me even more is everything he has gained beyond the game.

At just 13 and 14 years old, this trip helped him build confidence, independence, and responsibility. Traveling internationally, managing his own belongings, exploring a new city with teammates, and learning to be more self-sufficient are life lessons that will stay with him forever.

Coach Andrew does a fantastic job creating an environment where the players not only grow as athletes but also as young people. My son has made great friends, created unforgettable memories, and comes home more mature each year.

I highly recommend Coach Andrew and USIFC to any family looking for an opportunity that combines high-level soccer with personal growth. It’s an experience that goes far beyond the field.

10/5 Stars! What. An. Experience. Of a Lifetime! There really are no words of how incredible the experience with USIFC was for my 15 year old son! He has grown as a player and as a person. He has gained confidence he never knew he had. The high level training and competition has him wanting more. Coaches Andrew, Sam, Julian: we cannot thank you enough for the top-notch coaching both on the pitch and in life skills. Miss Meghan: you are incredible for helping take charge of about 50 males! Pedro, thank you for helping! We would not hesitate to send both of our boys in the future!

Thank you all coaches and staff involved in our son’s recent trip and participation at Gothia Cup. The whole experience was amazing, per my son “I would do it again without any doubt”.
