⚽ Price Update for 2026 ⚽
Since starting my private soccer coaching business here in Springfield 3 years ago, I’ve been grateful for the incredible support from players and families. During that time, my prices have remained the same.
As of 2026, I’ll be introducing a small price increase to reflect the quality, experience, and development I continue to provide:
1v1 sessions: $90 per session
2v1 sessions: $120 per session
I also offer small group sessions (3–6 players) at $50 per child per session, a great option for players who want high-quality coaching in a fun, competitive environment. If you’re interested in securing a spot in a group session, please private message me to put your child’s name down.
Thank you again for your ongoing support, I’m looking forward to another big year of development and growth!

Hi everyone
Unfortunately, I need to cancel next weekend’s holiday clinic at the Atlantic Drive Sporting Complex. I’ve broken a rib playing 6-aside and am now having significant issues with my back muscles, so I won’t be able to safely run a large group session.
Everyone who has paid has already been emailed to arrange a refund.
I’ll definitely be organising another Springfield Holiday Clinic in the new year. Thank you all for your support and understanding.
George 👊🏾

As the year is coming to an end I’d like to thank all of my clients for a great year of coaching. Special mention to Jane and Darcy for their weekly commitment in 2024. Their hard work, resilience and determination landed them both a spot in the Academy teams at Springfield United for 2025. Well done!
Merry Christmas everybody and I look forward to another year of coaching in the new year! George
