Inspirational instructors

All programs are supported by our team of inspirational instructors, headed-up by TFA founder Marcus Lees, a talented and experienced soccer player whose career has seen him play in Canada, America, Europe, and Brazil.

Marcus is respectful and kind and encourages you to never give up on something hard. He has helped my son improve ball control and his mental game.

It is always a highlight finishing up the school week knowing he trained with him. Thanks Marcus.
