John Callan reviewed Soccer IQ Genesis
★★★★★
Soccer IQ Genesis and Coach Humphrey provide a level of coaching individual skills and techniques that have been forgotten within many of the local soccer clubs. His calm demeanor and personal attention is very well received by the players. Our son has seen an increase in his confidence in practices and games. We have been approached by many other parents asking us how our son has increased his confidence. Without a doubt, it is the work done with Soccer IQ Genesis and Coach Humphrey that has provided him this ability to further his game. Thank you Soccer IQ Genesis and Coach Humphrey for providing our son and so many others the opportunity to further their individual skills which helps their confidence when playing in their respective club games.

The SIQG training is excellent and we highly recommend the program. The training my daughter received from Humphrey was instrumental in developing her technical skills and speed on the pitch. The training also helped build her confidence as she advanced from NPL to the US Development Academy.

My daughter has been attending Coach Humphrey’s small group training for the past 2 years. Each training session is equipped with a vast array of training tools and tailored to the attending students. Coach Humphrey is always smiling and doles out plenty of positive reinforcement and advice to keep the students engaged and motivated. My daughter also attended one Coach Humphrey’s summer camps. She prefers it over the other pro club affiliated camps: superior training and superior equipment. The invaluable technical training from Coach Humphrey is exactly what my daughter needed to boost her confidence with the ball and improve her play.

Humphrey is the most amazing coach and so great with kids of all levels. I’ve been working with him about 3 yrs and I have improved my skills so much. He has great emphasis on detail and learning ball skills that make you a top player. He works you hard but also has a gentle side that makes training fun. He really takes the time to understand each player and what they need to be more successful. He is always adding new drills that help keep your interest so training is never boring.

Coach Humphrey has coached my niece and twin boys and we love his program. He is well organized and comes prepared with lots of tools to keep the kids engaged and working hard. He is teaching them the fundamentals, improving their footwork and making them think about their decisions
while playing. We have also participated in the camps which are again well organized and professional. I highly recommend Coach Humphrey for his private lessons and the camps as well. He is so talented and I love watching my boys get better under his guidance.

Coach Humphrey is wonderful. He focuses on every child and works with them on their development needs. I have been taking my sons to Coach Humphrey for the last couple of years and this is where I think most of their skill development has come from. He is systematic, methodical and insists on getting things done right instead of just trying to do things fast.
Coach Humphrey also provides a regular set of classes with flexibility for the parents to pick sessions and times that work for them. This is a huge plus when trying to deal with multiple kids and their own routines.

I signed my son up for soccer training with Coach Humphrey since last summer. My son loves the program. Coach Humphrey is a professional soccer coach and loves teaching kids. His students come from almost every top soccer clubs in south bay. What I like most about Coach Humphrey’s training is that he always focuses on teaching kids ball skills, which I think every soccer player should learn especially in young age. To help kids learn and practice different skills, Coach Humphrey has a lot of training equipment, which I have never seen in other soccer training programs. I highly recommend Coach Humphrey’s soccer training program.

Coach Humphrey has a great program. My son has trained with him for 2 years. He loves the training sessions and has become a more confident soccer player. Each session is well planned out and can be adapted to every player’s needs. Coach Humphrey is attentive and knows how to keep the kids motivated throughout the session. I highly recommend this program to anyone who has a kid interested in improving his or her technical abilities.

Humphrey has a great personality both on and off the field. He is very positive with the kids and he offers in depth technical training. My son has been training with him for the past 4 years and by far Humphrey’s trainings have improved his technical skills the most. I have seen many of the top kids in the area at his trainings including Academy and pre Academy levels. He is always on the field there on week nights and weekends and he is always prepared. Humphrey also gives homework to the kids to practice on their own and shared a video with them to watch on a particular skill. We have tried pretty much all the camps and trainings in the area and by far Humphrey offers the best value.

Coach Humphrey is one of the best coaches our boys have had the fortune to work with (and we’ve worked with a lot). He’s one of the few that really knows how to teach and refine technical skills at a detailed level. He’s very detail oriented and gives very frequent and specific feedback to the kids at each training. He really is great with kids and has their best interest at heart. His passion for the game is genuine and he is a super positive influence on the kids he works with. There are not many coaches/people like him, so we are fortunate to have him in this area.

My daughters have very much improved their foot skills and continue to do so with Soccer IQ Genesis! They are not only developing continually but enjoying themselves at each lesson and camp. The lessons are very well thought out and are geared towards individual skills which is difficult to find. You can tell that Coach Humphrey truly cares about developing and building up the players, not only in skills but also in character and confidence. We recommend Coach Humphrey and Soccer Genesis IQ very highly as we have tried various trainings in the area and find his to be leading the others.

I can’t say enough positive things about Coach Humphrey’s training sessions! I’ve seen my daughter’s footwork greatly improved since she started 7 months ago. He starts the kids based on their skill level and increases the difficulty of the drills after a few sessions so they don’t get bored. He also brings in different training tools that we usually don’t have access to which is a big plus. I had referred two other players from my daughter’s team and their parents, too, have seen great improvements. Coach Humphrey is very patient and he pays attention to the kids to ensure they’re technique is correct. I would definitely recommend Coach Humphrey to anyone looking to take their kid’s skills to the next level.

Coach Humphrey is a truly complete and adaptive coach that personalizes his style and curriculum based on each players needs. He has been working with my son for almost 2 years, and my son enjoys every session. Coach Humphrey’s patience, calmness and coaching approach resonate really well with my son and have enabled him to improve his skills while developing his confidence. My daughter attended one of Coach Humphrey’s summer clinics and she can’t wait to be old enough to work with Coach Humphrey on a more regular basis. Definitely give Coach Humphrey a try!

My son trained with Coach Humphrey for 2-1/2 years(from 14~16 yr old) and he now has advanced to the UK to pursue his football career. Coach Humphrey’s training has equipped him a rather solid fundamental and that is the very reason why he can compete in the UK youth level. While my son was still in the US with his formal club team, he went from bench player to the top scorer of the team in one season thanks to his own hard work and Coach Humphrey’s 1×1 trainings.
Coach Humphrey could be the most important role in my son’s football training. We are so grateful to have him.
Btw, Coach Humphrey is by far the most sincere and diligent coach among all coaches we have known in my life time
.
If your kid is serious about playing football, this is the place!

I have been taking my kids to different camps and training sessions for close to 3 years. We must have tried almost every camp that is available in bay area. Coach Humphrey’s camps and his training sessions at Steinbeck are by far the best we have seen so far.
Coach concentrates a lot on skills and right technique. There is visible improvement in kids confidence and attitude towards using the skills practiced. Now I don’t need to worry about motivating them anymore. 🙂

Coach Humphrey has coached my son for more than a year and we love it! He is very organized and methodical in getting kids comfortable with ball movement and make sure enough practice in footwork. His class is always intensive, fun and effective and my son improved a lot since taking his class. His practice schedule is also very flexible and you can choose whatever times works for you. Highly recommended!

Humphrey is an excellent technical coach! We highly recommend him.
He has super creative drills, tools, and techniques that are very effective. He pays attention to detail and quality in actively adjusting kids technique. He is also great repoire with the kids and is very patient. He does his best to tailor the session based on where your child is at and what they need, even though it is a group session.

With the program over 2 years- excellent long term development in-depth technical training, something that many clubs do not offer. Humphrey is an extraordinary coach on many levels, very inspirational lessons. Kids love it! For parents it is great because the lesson times are very flexible, which enables busy soccer families to stay flexible.

Coach Humphrey is Awesome! My 9 year old daughter loves all the drills, especially the drills on mastering her footwork. Coach Humphrey reinforces to always work hard on her first touch. Not only does he focus on her technique, but also trying to make her a complete soccer player. He is very attentive to every aspect of soccer.

Humphrey is one of the best soccer coaches I’ve worked with. I really believe in his coaching philosophy that is to refine personal skills through thousands of thousands of touches during the day-to-day training. Both my sons have been training with Humphrey for a while now and I can clearly see the difference. Most importantly, the boys are training hard and really enjoying it!

My daughter has been training with Humphrey for approximately 18 months and we are very pleased with the advancement she has made, in part by attending his sessions. In particular, her foot skills have greatly improved and she has developed into a solid technical player. She has also attended his summer camp and the program he put on was unlike any other camp with very creative approaches to learning the game. Highly recommended!

My son has been attending Coach Humphrey’s training sessions for several months now. He really enjoyed the training and coaching provided by Coach Humphrey. My son is learning lots of dribbling and 1v1 skills and drills in the training sessions. This has helped my son’s confidence level in his games. Coach Humphrey’s soccer camp is one of the best in the bay area. Highly recommended.

My older son started with coach Humphrey back in 2015 and my younger son started last year, and both love the program. The sessions are highly technical, innovative and a lot of fun. This is THE place to go if you want to improve your kids’ technical skills and confidence level on the ball.

I have been bringing my 9 year old to Coach Humphrey’s training sessions once or twice a week since fall 2017. We’re hooked. Club soccer practices have their place, but to be honest, I see them now more as a supplement to Soccer IQ training sessions. Tactics are meaningless if the kids don’t have the technical skills to execute them. The real individual skills training happens in this type of setting. The kids easily get around 1,500 high quality touches on the ball. Coach Humphrey will not let the kids complete a technical drill if it is incorrect. He also spends a lot of time helping the kids develop their non-dominant foot. He even has better soccer training equipment than most clubs. Highly recommend!

My son has been training with Humphrey for about 2 years now. He has been the one constant and stable element in my son’s development. Through rough seasons when team coaching wasn’t up to par, I owe my son’s continuous development to Humphrey. As many teams focus on tactics and understanding of the game, Humphrey provides balance with the technical side of the game.

Soccer IQ Genesis is the real deal. Coach Humphrey teaches the very fundamentals of soccer while allowing the kids to learn as many skills and techniques with or without the aid of various equipment. My son enjoys the individual training and has been confidently using the skills and techniques he learned. We recommend SIQG for players seeking high quality training from a professional, well talented coach.

My son started training with coach Humphrey last 2.5 years. Coach Humphrey focuses on technical training with emphasis on doing it the right way. Something like this is a MUST for anyone who wants to improve as a soccer player. It’s something club/team practices can’t provide.
My son made such an improvement during that time. He started u-little bronze level team and he is currently playing for USSDA team.
Coach Humphrey is always patient with the kids and he shows kids how to do it instead of just telling kids what to do.
I can’t recommend him enough.

Our daughter’s individual skills has improved so much since she started training with Soccer IQ Genesis. There’s a lot of touches on the ball. The practices are intended to hone and perfect the passing, dribbling, shooting and defending skills that they learned.
