Testimonials.

Rick has vast knowledge and love of the game. He is a motivator, creative at his implementation of soccer skills with his players. He truly made my girls better players, which showed on the field.

Erin ChildRuss Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty

Rick is een van de betere voetbalcoaches van Arizona. Niet alleen technisch zeer vaardig, ook leert hij de kinderen de sociale vaardigheden die ze nodig hebben zowel in het veld als in het leven. Leiderschap, samenwerken, omgaan met tegenslag etc, lessen waar ze de rest van hun leven profijt van hebben. En dat doet ie dan ook nog met een aanstekelijk enthousiasme.

Rick is great! He and the club truly dedicate themselves to the growth, improvement and success of your player! Rick takes the time to make sure each child know their strengths and knows where they need to put in a little more work. He is highly professional and always has made our son feel confident and our son has thoroughly enjoyed his time with FCB. Highly recommend this club.

We love FC Batavia! When researching different clubs, all the mega machines kept coming up but after a couple of tryouts with those clubs we were feeling a little unsure that we really wanted to allow our then 10 year old to give up being a kid, and have to fork out thousands in club fees, uniform costs, and to top off crazy travel costs. We were lucky to find FC Batavia. From day one it was evident that all the coaches were concerned with not only attracting talented players who already had a lot of skill but also on continuing to develop these players.
