"Coach Mollie is the smartest investment we have made for our son. We could already see change after only the first two sessions, he was a very different player. He has 6 lessons under his belt and we will continue to work with Mollie for as long as she will let us :) We wish we found and booked with Mollie years ago! We have worked with other coaches from other countries for 2 years and nothing compares (not even close) to how Mollie reaches the student. All positive reinforcement! Her 1 hour lessons are packed full of activity and teaching how/when to apply, etc. I feel that our son gets more out of 1 hour of Mollie's training than he had ever gotten combining 2-3 hours of other coaches. Mollie is very active throughout the entire lesson. She is very thorough and easily understood in explaining moves/methods, plus she helps the student feel accomplished and proud of themselves. Mollie will also send you a full detailed summary of every lesson. Perfect for homework and for parents to have a full grasp of the training accomplished.
Our son is having fun on the game field and scoring goals, (...AND as a side note, school has also improved!). He is a happier person. We are so very grateful to have found Mollie!"

I am so glad that my parents found Ms. Mollie Pathman to help prepare me for College ID Camps. They did a lot of research and found her credentials to be very impressive, I thought so too. I have been playing soccer since 2nd grade and Coach Mollie is by far the most experienced, friendly, caring, knowledgeable coach that I have had the honor to work with.
She identified my strengths and weaknesses and came up with a plan of development to help improve my game play quickly and efficiently. My individual plan was developed and sent to me via email later that day. Each time we practiced, Coach Mollie didn’t just instruct, she demonstrated her knowledge by joining in and working with me on a level that other coaches could not. She has a warm inviting personality that made me enjoy training sessions, and I always looked forward to the challenge.
Training doesn’t end there. She provided me with lots of material to work on so that I can improve my college prospects.
So, if you are looking for a trainer with a great personality, excellent knowledge and experience of the game and a desire to improve a players’ ability, Coach Mollie is by far the best choice.

Our 15 year old daughter has been working with Mollie for about a year now. She looks forward to sessions with Mollie each week! She respects Mollie’s opinion and advice. She is more motivated outside of practice and has more confidence because of Mollie. Mollie coaches with a lot of positive support, emphasizing the progress made, with a “show you more than lecture you” process about where she needs to be working harder. Mollie provides a prompt written report of the training session and what to work on between sessions. Since working with Mollie, my daughter was named Rookie of the Year for her Varsity High School Team. She was voted All Conference and All Region. She moved up a team level in the Classic League after Tryouts in May. Several people have commented to me that they can see a distinct improvement in her performance over the last year. Since she started training with Mollie, multiple aspects of her game have improved! I wish every young player had the financial means to have the support of an expert and role model like Mollie to guide them through their sporting careers. Our family is so thankful for Mollie!!!

Coach Mollie is a great trainer! My 13 yr. old daughter enjoyed learning from Coach Mollie. She taught my daughter so much. Coach Mollie is seems to enjoy interacting with children and teaching them. She will push your child to do things they think they can't do, because she believes in them and wants them to believe in themselves.
As a parent, she was wonderful to work with as well.
Thank you!

Coach Mollie is an outstanding coach! We connected with her in the Spring of 2020 just as the COVID-19 virus was starting to be an issue. My daughters (age 14) were interested in trying out for the classic program and losing the spring season of soccer was not going to help. Mollie was very engaging and provided some great drills and techniques for the girls to work on between sessions. The training had to shut down for some time due to local health restrictions but as soon as those were lifted, Mollie reached back to let us know she was training again. Her training was excellent again and kept pushing the girls to new levels, which encouraged them to do much more training on their own in between the formal sessions. Mollie was also very sensitive to health concerns after resuming the training with social distancing and making sure other training sessions by others were a good distance away. Ultimately, the girls were selected for classic and without a doubt the training offered by Mollie was a large part of that. The drills she taught were appropriate for their skill level and increased in complexity as they improved. The girls also enjoyed working with Mollie and her subtle ways of encouraging them provided motivation without coming across as just general "good job". From a parents perspective, she was very easy to work with and made some last minute adjustments to accommodate our scheduling needs. I would recommend Coach Mollie to anyone who is looking to improve their players technical skills and focus on the game.

We had our first session and Coach Mollie yesterday. My son loves her already. He's 10 and was nervous; but she immediately got him comfortable. What I hoped for with private training was not just someone standing there pointing out mistakes; but the patience to give the individual attention needed to make corrections. And someone to actually play against him and physically challenge him to improve outside of team practices. Over time he developed some habits that needed changing (though we didn't know it at the time). She's already begun to tweak his footwork and he is gaining confidence in his left foot. We are looking forward to continuing to work with her.

Absolutely fantastic first session with Mollie. As we anticipated after reading the previous reviews, she was very engaging and my daughter immediately clicked with her and responded to her style- jumping in and doing drills with her! As soon as the session was over there was a huge smile on my daughters face as she told me she wanted Mollie to be her coach - DAILY! I highly recommend Mollie if you are looking for that professional soccer player who really motivates and inspires. We are looking forward to a long relationship!
