TESTIMONIALS

ROSHEN JASWAL - BURNABY AAA HOCKEY

JULY 27, 2008

I would like to take this time to thank Sanjeev and the rest of the coaching staff (Kevin,Wendy,Eric,and Elliot) for the most fun two weeks of my life. I had the privilege to live with Sanjeev (my first cousin) for two weeks, and now I know why he has the best programs in all of Ottawa . He is on the field from 9 am to 9p.m. Everything was great about the camps from the training to joking around with the coaches at lunch to swimming and then to the best part of camp world cup. I myself am from Vancouver and play hockey, I have tried soccer and never liked it but coming to Parmar camps has made me see why billions of people play soccer and not every camp can show a kid that. Sanj has done a great job in picking top notch coaching staff in Eric, Wendy, and Kevin as they really made me feel at home and were always there to help you with whatever you needed. It's not often you come across awesome programs and coaching that Parmar sports training offers and It's easy to see why they are #1.

" I have attended many Parmar soccer clinics since I was 8 years old. The training has always been competitive, creative, fun and promising. Sanjeev is a great trainer who makes every training session different, and something to look forward to. He is committed to making everyday as productive as possible so that you get the most out of it. Sanjeev has helped me with my speed and agility, strength and conditioning, ball handling skills, and even my outlook on the game. It has definitely had an impact on both my game, and my passion for the sport. Sanjeev knows how to take every training session seriously, but he is always a down to earth person who is so much fun to train with. Sanjeev is just living proof that the relationship you make with your team mates and trainers is one of the most important. Parmar Training has even become a family event. I look forward to it every summer and winter."

I am writing to you in regard to your 2007/2008 Winter Strength and Conditioning Program that both my son Cory, 14 years of age and my daughter Melissa 12 years of age participated in this past winter.

I want to inform you that I thought these sessions were fantastic. Not only did both my children get pushed to work really hard but also we saw instant results in the fitness level and their ability to run faster. The sessions were very professional and the knowledge of the coaches were top notch.

For an example, the running coach in the first session explained posture and the use of their hands/arms while running. Two of the parents on my son's soccer team asked me where Cory picked up all his speed? I was shocked myself as with one session Cory's running skills improved dramatically. All the parents expressed that this was money well spent.

I asked my son the same question and was surprised with his response; he said, “Dad I've just been taught how to run properly and I finally have been told what to do with my arms, I can't believe how much faster I am.” Both my children continued to improve week after week.

As for my daughter she as well with the guidance of the running coach paid attention to posture and arms and showed so much improvement throughout the entire program.

I want to thank you for offering such a high level of all around physical workout and top notch running training to these kids who will only benefit in the years to come as athletes.

MIRANDA SMITH - Cumberland u12 Regional, OSA Region 5, Danone Nations Cup Canada Team & Parmar +20
May 7, 2008

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your amazing work with my daughter.  Just two short years ago, you recognized that she had the athletic abilities to go to the next level.  Thanks to your hard work, dedication and enthusiasm, Miranda has been able to accomplish many of her goals including, making your Parmar +20 program, Region 5 team as an under age player, and this year, The Danone Nations Cup Team for Eastern Canada. From day 1 you taught her to set goals for herself and then go and achieve them.

As a competitive athlete most of my life, it is easy for me to say that your programs are by far the most innovative, intense and inspiring for children.  I have yet to see someone who displays as much passion for a sport as you do for soccer and especially the kids you train.  Your +20 program is easily in a class of it's own. Simply, it is the best program for kid's soccer development I have seen.  Miranda has done evey program you have and they all have helped to make her a better athlete, soccer player and person.

I know that Miranda looks forward to every session she has with you and hopes that you will continue to help her improve, so she can reach all of her goals!

On behalf of Miranda and our Family, I would like to say THANKS and keep up the Great Work!

Elliot first started with Sanjeev aged 7 . We quickly noticed rapid improvement with his overall co-ordination, foot speed, balance and individual skills. Sanjeev introduced Elliot to the importance of ball juggling or 'keep me up's" to help his first touch and from only being able to initially do a few,  Elliot's own personal juggling record now stands close to 2,000. Through coaching myself and watching Elliot's games I have been fortunate to watch hundreds of young players locally and it amazes me how easy it still is to pick out a player who has trained with Sanjeev on a regular basis. In my opinion these fortunate players  are quite clearly a step ahead of the majority in terms of technical ability. What I find really refreshing is that Sanjeev clearly recognizes the importance of putting individual player development first and the local Ottawa soccer community is extremely fortunate to have a such a talented coach at their disposal. I would say to any parent or player who takes the game seriously, give Sanjeev a try and experience the difference!

CARRIE KVETON - Sonderjyske Danish Womens 3F Liga

I met Sanjeev when I played for the Ottawa Fury in the summer of 2006. He's a pretty busy guy but always found time to train. We would meet up in the mornings before the Fury sessions at night and train together, usually with a couple guys or girls along with that he trained. It was fantastic. Sanjeev was the best training partner! I was absolutely blown away by his technical perfection and tried to convince him the rest of the summer that he should be playing professionally somewhere. His dedication and commitment to improvement and performance was inspiring. We would train for hours and do technical work until it was right, although Sanjeev usually got it the first time around. I had an awesome summer training with him and really missed him the next year when I switched clubs. Not only is he a fantastic trainer but he also has impecible character and is genuinely caring.

STPEPHEN VEENEMA - Kanata U13 Regional Soccer

March, 2008

This is the fourth year that Stephen has attended a Parmar “Speed and Agility” session. It is incredible how every week there are new drills to learn, new moves and fresh workouts. Each year Stephen has seen improvement in his strength and speed directly related to these sessions.

The passion for soccer that Sanjeev brings along with his amazing soccer skills has been a great example. He sees the potential in players and has the ability to draw that out while making the drills fun and competitive. Stephen truly enjoys each session and does not realize how hard he is working and how much he is learning . We are lucky to have Sanjeev in Ottawa!

SAMUEL ROBERT - Cumberland Cobras U13, Region 5
February, 2008

"I have attended several soccer clinics and camps with Sanjeev for the last 4 years, on my own and with my soccer team. Sanjeev helped us develop and become better soccer players. Sanjeev has been a great coach and he encouraged me to always push myself and give my best."

"Our son Samuel has been very fortunate to be coached by such a knowledgeable and enthusiastic team at Parmar Sports Training. Sanjeev's professionalism, competitiveness and passion for soccer has positively impacted many soccer players in the Ottawa area."

CIARA McCORMACK - Ottawa Fury W-League pro team and GirlsCAN Soccer Development Founder/Head Coach

December, 2007

In May of 1997, devastated after losing in overtime of the BC High School Provincials, a stranger came up to me and told me what a great player he thought I was and how well he felt I had played. I didn't know his name, but the time he took to do that left a deep impression on me, both on my esteem as a player and inspired me to take the time to let others know when I thought something positive, because of how good it made me feel.

Ten years later, this face resurfaced, in the form of my assistant coach for the Ottawa Fury, Sanjeev Parmar. Sanjeev's obvious passion for the game and for teaching it, was evident every time our W League team worked with him. Our whole team looked forward to his Tuesday night practices and his innovative methods of teaching, his ability to have us work hard but enjoy every minute and the creativity that he brought to each session. A couple of times he brought his female youth players out and we were blown away with their ability, again no doubt a credit to the work Sanjeev had done with them.

I can say without a doubt he is one of the best coaches in Canada, and anyone who has the ability to be coached by him is lucky. Also, as a peer in the coaching world, his openness in sharing drills and ideas is rare and I have benefitted immensely from his extensive knowledge. He is truly a first class coach and person.

RACHEL RADU:  Vancouver Whitecaps Prospects, U13 Semiahmoo Thunder, BC Provincial Cup Champions, 2007 ERSL Cup Champion, 2006/07 Parmar +20

December, 2007

Rachel began training with Sanjeev at the age of 9 and has had such a positive influence on her development and love for the game of soccer.  He truly leads by example with infectious enthusiasm and commitment to soccer development both on and off the field.  His professional development style has always been age appropriate and designed to be effective and motivational.   His personal effectiveness has developed Rachel into a top player in Ottawa and Vancouver.  His personal contacts throughout Soccer Canada lead to her being scouted to the 2007 BC U12 Championship team, the Semiahmoo Thunder where she earned a place on BC's Whitecaps Prospects Team that develops the best soccer talent in the Vancouver area. He is a mentor, a friend and an inspiration.

GABOR SOLYMAR - Kanata U18

November, 2007

"Sanjeev has been a major contributor to success of our program as both a skills and Speed & Agility trainer for over 4 years. His sessions are intense, varied and extremely beneficial. His combination of natural candor with the boys, limitless energy and excellent skills makes him an ideal motivator for any age. The players love his sessions and don't seem to realize how hard they are working. Sanjeev's dedication to the sport and to teaching soccer as it should be taught is a great asset for this region to have. He has a desire to learn and share that many of us coaches and trainers would do well to emulate."

JADEN CHAYRA - Parmar +20

October, 2007

Jaden was the first to be introduced to the ‘Parmar experience” two years ago. He attended a Parmar summer camp where he had a great deal of fun, received inspirational coaching and developed invaluable confidence as a young soccer player. Each evening he would come home from camp and tell us all about the great day he had and show us all he had learnt. That winter Jaden and Bianca attended the winter training programs. I have never experienced such enthusiasm and dedication to any training program before. Bianca would be all ready changed into her soccer kit and waiting with her water bottles and cleets at the door when I returned home from work. Jaden felt very privileged to be invited to the March Break Camp this year. He would talk about nothing else all evening until he fell asleep. For this winter all four of my children demand to attend the Parmar programs and learn from Sanjeev.

My children are infected by Sanjeev's energy, enthusiasm, creativity and soccer skills. I as a parent admire his ability to connect with youth of all ages and to show that hard work has it's rewards. I am delighted that my children want to go to his session and want to learn and want to produce results for which they are proud of. Thanks Sanjeev!

EMMA ARSENAULT - Parmar + 20 and Under 12 Kanata Lightning

October, 2007

I am one of the lucky few in my second year of the +20 program. It is so much fun to be with such a skilled and motivated group. Even more fun to be with a coach who challenges us so much and is always ready to provide positive feedback. All last winter I don't remember ever doing a drill more than twice, always a new situation or challenge to overcome.

I have also been able to attend camps at March Break the last couple of years where Sanjeev brought in some great guest coaches to help. Ken was amazing; I hope we get him back this year.

My skills have improved greatly thanks to Sanjeev's training but it is in my confidence that the biggest change has occurred. Now I love being encouraged to take defenders on. I just know if I nutmeg that defender and blow in on goal I am going to hear him screaming “Maaagggiiic”

MARY HUGHES - Parent

November, 2007

My daughter, Lauren, has been working with Sanjeev for about three years now. She has improved with every session under him. His youthful enthusiasm is contagious. She strives to excell to please him and herself. She is especially proud when someone asks her where she learn a certain move or techique, and she relates it back to Sanjeev. He is able to relate to
the younger athlete and able to pull out their desire, competitiveness and skill, so well. He has brought Lauren to her current level and continues to push her to strive to reach her full potential. His love for the game and showmanship keep everyone involved intense, even through a cold wet rain. His generousity and concern for the individual player continues to astound
me. I cannot sing enough praises for this young man.

MICHAEL BASTIANELLI - Region 5(2nd year), Parmar +20, & Nepean Hotspurs u13

October, 2007

"I have found the Parmar Sports Program for Soccer to be perhaps the best training available for players looking to enhance their personal skills and augment training they are receiving with their own Soccer Clubs. Sanjeev is a dedicated individual, with an obvious talent for soccer and ability to get his message through to players, creating a positive and rich environment for learning. The progress in the players attending the Parmar Program is very distinct and recognizable, on the field."

My son Elliot first attended a winter long Parmar Sports Training program at age 7. Sanjeev's passion, energy and enthusiasm for soceer soon influenced him and  I saw a very rapid improvement with Elliot's overally movement, co-ordination, ball skills and agility. Sanjeev's motivational and fun approach was very influential in introducing Elliot to being comfortable and confident with the ball through practising various drills / tricks including juggling. From initially only being able to do one or two my son is now confidently able to complete 150 - 200 "keep me up's" on a regular basis as part of his warm up routine. Sanjeev's love for the "beautiful game" has left a very positive legacy with Elliot!.

QUINN MAHONEY - Under 10 premier boys & Parmar +20 Boys

March, 2007

“Hey, try this.” And they try. “That's awesome, now try it this way.” They try again, and it's a little better. “Brilliant, now try it at home.” And they go home and try it, again and again. And they can't wait to show Sanjeev how much better they are the next time they see him. And they tell him about their new moves, and their juggling records. And they talk about how much fun their sessions are with Sanjeev. And they wear his t-shirts. And after a couple of years you hear people on the sidelines say, “Man, that kid can play.”

Sanjeev, thanks for inspiring the kids to bring beauty to the Beautiful Game.

“Sanjeev's sessions are the best.” – Quinn has worked with Sanjeev for 3 years.

“Working with Sanjeev is fun, challenging, and an awesome way to improve your game.” -Aidan has also worked with Sanjeev for 3 years.

EDUARDO SEBRANGO- Vancouver Whitecaps Professional Team & Former Cuban National Team Player

Player Profile

March, 2007

Hi my name is Eduardo Sebrango , I'm a professional soccer player with the Vancouver Whitecaps of the USL first division. I have known Sanjeev for about 5 years now and he has always helped me in the off-season to be sharp in pre-season training camp. After training under him in the off season for many years, I would say that his dedication and knowledge of preparing players to get fit is very high. I would recommend Sanjeev's programs to any parent that wants his kids to become the best soccer player possible. After working with him for so long, I have never seen him repeat one drill, each and every practise is new and innovative.  Obviously this says a lot about how much thought and preperation he puts into preparing his program. Sanjeev, I also would like to take the opportunity to thank you for all your help during my off-season.

EMMA CHADWICK - Parmar +20 and Under 11 Kanata Lightning

March, 2007

I met Sanjeev 2 years ago at my first March break camp. He was like no other coach – totally cool. Since then, I've taken every opportunity available to me to work with him and his team of coaches. They are ALL good players with a lot of experience and they definitely know what they are talking about. Everything they tell me to do to improve actually works…if I do it correctly of course! They give me credit when I do something right and constructive criticism when something needs to be corrected. Sanjeev teaches us something new at every session – never the same old simple things over and over again. He can even make boring passing drills fun! He finds a way to make it everything challenging and rewarding. All in all, Sanjeev and his team are excellent role models. They make me a better player than I could ever be without them. There's nothing more encouraging to me than to hear Sanjeev tell me, “Maaaaaaagic!”

KEVIN NELSON - Former Trinidad & Tobago U17 & Olympic Team and Present Professional Player

Player Profile

February, 2007

Having played for the Ottawa Wizards I had the opportunity to live with Sanjeev. After a little time I became to notice how passionate and driven he was. Each and every day he would come in to do extra training in the morning before our evening sessions with the team. He would always inspire myself and a few others to do the extra training with him. He was always interested in helping each player become the best that they could be. I've been joining in on Sanjeev's training sessions since 2002 and am now seeing the young players he was working with who have had amazing improvement over these years. These players now have skills I didn't have at their age because I wasn't privileged enough to have this unbelievable, high-quality training.

Being fortunate enough to have also played in many areas of Europe and South America I compare Sanjeev's trainings to the high-quality youth training camps held there. Sanjeev is very inovative with his activities, he hardly does the same one twice, it keeps the players entertained and focused.

After Sanjeev's training I noticed a improvement in my footwork, speed and a stronger overall confidence in my playing.

JENNA LU - Parmar +20

March, 2007

My daughter was given the opportunity to attend a spring weekend training at Kemptville College with her team under Sanjeev Parmar's guidance.  As coach for my daughter's team, I very pleased to have my team included in his training session. The girls were given professional training which was very structured, very educational, but very fun.  While maintaining a professional soccer education, Sanjeev was able to connect with each individual player regardless of age.  There was a mix of 10 and 11 year old girls who were taught skills that made their training intense but very entertaining.  As a coach I saw growth in my players in the two days they were training.  The experience was very positive and also focused on team building through fun extracurricular activities.  My daughter was very sad to leave the camp and wanted to stay longer.  With the intensity of training, attention to detail, the camp was still very exciting and though the girls learned a great deal, they were ready to devour more knowledge. 

I would highly recommend this experience for any team and look forward to the next opportunity for my daughter.

KRISTI KORYCKI STRIEGLER- Parmar +20 and under 12 Ottawa Internationals

March, 2007

My daughter Kristi was invited to train with Sanjeev over the fall of 2006 winter of 2007. Immediately on the first night of training one could see how the initiative and level of play were at an advanced level. There was a a friendly welcoming atmosphere on arrival, but once training started each night the program was all business with consistent serious effort at drills, skills, communication and discipline. The drills and skill development exercises were smooth and efficient, designed to increase strength, reaction time, immediate strategic thinking and communication. Sanjeev not only provided great conditioning exercises but also the encouragement and motivation to the players to get results. I was really impressed with the high calibre of training for strategy and game knowledge that was a key part of program. More importantly there was equal treatment and attention for every player coupled with great personal encouragement and individualized training. Hard to accomplish but Sanjeev makes it seem easy. Kristi tells me she enjoyed every session, she learned a tremendous amount about soccer. Kristi needs constant challenge and thrives in a competitive environment and in this program she was provided with 100 % of the challenge and stimulation that is a natural part of her make up.

MEAGHAN & THOMAS BISSETT- Under 13 Nepean City Storm / Ottawa Fury Academy 1 & Parmar +20 Boys

January, 2007

Our younger son and daughter have attended Sanjeev's sessions and camps for the past three years now. Both Thomas's and Meaghan's soccer skills and fitness have improved notably every year, in large part to these well run and imaginative programs. Still the most impressive part for us is, after many years, how much both children look forward to each week's sessions, a true testament to the fun they have while developing as better athletes.

Amy Savage, Ontario U-15 Provincial Team

December, 2006

"Training with Sanjeev over the past few years, has definitely amplified my game. He took the time to help me out before I went down to Toronto for my provincial try-outs. I was rewarded with his patience when I finally got the drill, and more importantly, in the short-term, a spot on the U-15 provincial team. Sanjeev is always concerned with player development. All the technical drills and goofy games inspire confidence in everyone. Working with Sanjeev, one quickly learns what true passion really is. You can call him a mentor, a big brother, coach, a technical advisor, or just Jeevs, it doesn't matter, just call him."

DAMIEM MERRETTE - Canadian U15 National Team

November, 2006

No doubt that Sanjeev's training helped me to become a better soccer player.   I learned a lot from his advices and drills and I always appreciate his enthusiam about the game.  I was lucky to have him in Ottawa. 

LAUREN HUGHES - Ontario Provincial Under 14 Team (National Champions), Region 5

November, 2006

Sanjeev has made me such a better player over the past few years. He's been working with me individually and in small groups over the past year, and I've improved a lot, especially my kick. In my individual sessions he always pushed me to my limit, but not to far. He has helped me train, and I think the reason that I was chosen to try and made the Region 5 program (the best players in the Eastern Ontario Region) was because of his training. His drills are real game situation and we always finish the practice with some fun.

DAVE FOLEY - Canadian Men's National Soccer Team Physiotherapist and Former Professional Player

October, 2006

 "I have had the pleasure to play and work with Sanjeev.  He is passionate about soccer and committed to helping others that share their enthusium toward the game.  His approach is unique, challanging, high energy, and most importantly enjoyable.  Great skills, concepts and fun summerize his program.  Sanj is preparing soccer players with tools to succeed and this is appreciated by the kids and parents that enjoy soccer. A huge complement for Sanj is that my kids can't wait until the next session."

JULIA FRANCKI - Under 13 Girls Regional Cumberland United Soccer and Region 5
October, 2006

Sanjeev has helped me become a better soccer player. He has been helping my team improve for a couple years and I know everyone on my team has improved a lot with his help. His training sessions are always fun; we play games and work on different aspects of soccer but most of all we learn many moves. I have learned so many different moves over the years with Sanjeev. Sanjeev is very enthousiastic about soccer and it shows as he spends most of his summer running camps and training sessions for many age groups. He has been a big help for me as I am not very big for my age; but with the skills Sanjeev has taught me, I can beat players who are much bigger and stronger than me. This fall/winter I made the Region 5 team (the best players in the Eastern Ontario Region). I believe that Sanjeev helped me get there. I am looking forward to working with him again this summer.

LAURA CALLENDER - Nepean City U12 Girls and Region 5

October, 2006

Our daughter Laura, has attended several Parmar soccer clinics since she was nine years old and these have hugely contributed to developing her passion for the sport.   It is understandable that young girls will look forward to skill sessions being demonstrated by such a charismatic footballer and will push themselves to the max to emulate these abilities, however, it is incredible that they also look forward to and crave the gruelling hard work of the strength and fitness sessions.  It is Sanjeev's committment to improving and inspiring these young athletes that will keep us coming back for more and more and more.

NICK ARCURI - Under 11 boys, Cumberland United Soccer Club

FRANK LOFRANCO - Coach of W-League Ottawa Fury and Former Professional Player

July, 2006

Sanjeev Parmar's approach to player development is modern and effective.  Beyond understanding the important aspects of player development, he is able to share his knowledge, ability and passion in a way that captures the imagination of young players and accelerates the learning process.  The evidence is in the smiles and enthusiasm of the players as they work with  Sanjeev and his staff of quality coaches.  As a parent, you can't ask for more.  

PIERRE CANTAVE - CSA National Referee and coach for Capital United Football Club

May, 2006

"As a referee, I have seen many players perform on a soccer field and I must say that very few possess the speed, agility and ball control of Sanjeev Parmar. To have Sanjeev coach individual skills and ball controls to my two sons, to me is not only a privilege but also a blessing. I must confess that when I get a chance to attend the sessions I am envious of my boys. Any parents with kids who are passionate about the game of soccer and dream of taking it to a serious level, MUST enroll their kids with Parmar Sports Training."

MATTHEW WEBB - Houghton College Men's Soccer Coach

http://www.houghton.edu

May, 2006

Sanjeev Parmar is an superb trainer.  His commitment to excellence and hard work is second to none. His energy level is unmatched by any other trainer I have ever seen.  His love for the game comes through loud and clear with his passion for the game and his command for perfection.  In addition to his expertise as a player and trainer, he absolutely loves kids and with his efforvescent personality they are drawn to him like white on rice.  It is because of his sincere love for children that kids succeed when working with Sanjeev.  If I had my way (and lived closer), I would have all of my own five children work with him.

DWIGHT HORNIBROOK - Coach of University of Cortland and former member of Canadian Men's National Team Coaching Staff

April, 2006

Sanjeev Parmar has an unmatched passion for soccer and the development of the players he works with.  Having coached Sanj and seeing first hand the magic he brings to the field I am completely convinced that he will improve the performance of anyone who has the commitment and determination to work hard.  He has all the right tools to train youngsters as well as top professionals and knows the quality required to succeed.  Most importantly Sanjeev takes his role as a mentor and a leader very seriously and has experinced all the highs and lows sport experience offers. This fact, combined with his tremendous talent makes him very special indeed.

DEREK JOHNSTON - Coach for Cumberland United Soccer Club

April. 2006

"Sanjeev's passion for the game infects everybody.  Players love him because of his energy, enthusiams and impressive skills. Coaches love him because players improve and learn so much about the game.  Parents love him because he connects with athletes of all ages and makes the sessions fun."

MEGHAN SPRING - U19 girls Kanata Soccer Club

March, 2006

The first time I met Sanjeev was at a week-long soccer camp with my team, about 4 years ago. I could tell right off the bat that he knew his stuff. He had the moves, let me tell you – he could beat all of us, every time. I promised myself, then and there, that the day would come when I would be able to stop him – I would figure out how the ball stuck to his feet like magic and how, just when I was certain that I finally had him, he would twist/flick – and I was left without the ball, stumped.

  Since then, I've taken Sanjeev's strength and agility program, as well as his ball mastery program, numerous times. I go because Sanjeev's the best there is – and I sincerely mean that. Not just because he's sickeningly good at soccer, but because you can tell that he as well as everybody who works with him, they really love what they do. They're always there to clap when you've done something right, or take you aside and help you when you've gotten it wrong, and, no matter what, they encourage you to do things just a little bit better, a little bit faster. My personal fitness level has gone way up, without a doubt.

 My little brother takes lessons from Sanjeev too, and he thinks Sanj's just about the coolest guy ever. It must be doing something, because my brother's gotten…well, good . Really good. As in, … (almost)… better than me. He recently tried out for, and made, the Ottawa regional squad. At home, my brother and I play around in the hallway with mini soccer balls, usually trying to beat each other with the latest of Sanjeev's tricks. It drives our mom absolutely crazy.  I still can't beat Sanjeev. But now, during a game, I'll get the ball and my feet will know exactly what to do with it. Is it magic? No – it's those little things that Sanjeev's had me practice over and over and over – first touch, look around, move to space, know your options, communicate, don't forget that first touch…and so on until these things seems as natural and as inherent to me as breathing.

So maybe I still can't beat Sanjeev. But rest assured I'm workin' on it, I'm workin' on it. ; )

JESSICA SKODINSKY - Under 11 girls Cumberland United Soccer Club, Parmar+20, & Region 5

January, 2006

"Sanjeev Parmar and his staff make learning the game of soccer both fun and challenging for your players. Our daughter Jessica, age 10, has improved immensely over the past two years. The training programs are well planned and always positive. Her abilities and skills have improved, but more important is her love for the game continues to grow. Sanjeev's enthusiasm for the sport is truly inspiring and is reflected in his teachings."

MELISSA ABRAHAM - Ottawa Fury W-League, University of Texas El Paso

August, 2005

"Sanjeev presents a well thought out, organized program, which provides excellent cardiovascular and muscle strengthening workouts that challenge an athlete's physical limits. He not only presents superior fitness training but he’s also aided in the development of my ball skills and game strategy.   Sanjeev is always positive and enthusiastic which cant help but motivate those athletes he is coaching."

JEROME HAYWOOD - CFL, Lineman of the month, Ottawa Renegades Defensive Tackle

June, 2005

"In order to achieve my goals of being one of the best players in Football, my training regiment consists of high intensity speed, agility, and quickness workouts.  After working out with Sanjeev. I realized that his extremely intense workouts help put me closer to achieving my goals."

BRANDON ALBERT - Under 14 Messina, New York, USA

"'Challenging, fast paced and fun' is how my 11 year old son describes Sanjeev Parmar's Speed, Agility, and Strength Program.  Brandon looks forward to his weekly training with this dedicated, personable trainer and his staff.  The staffs energy, knowledge and ability to laugh with the children make our commute from New York well worth our while"

"My daughter Stacy has always been a good technical speed-skater The SAQ training has really helped her round out her performance, and she has taken her skating to a new level.  The dramatic improvement in her starts is directly a result of the drills from SAQ."

"Football is an intense game.  You have to be physically and mentally ready to compete with some of the biggest, fastest, and strongest athletes in the world.  Parmar Sports Training has developed my quickness, agility, speed, conditioning, and mental toughness to that of an elite athlete.  To be the best, you have to train with the best."

"I thought I was physically prepared for the university season and needed the preseason training camp for some extra touches on the ball.  However, I soon found out otherwise when I met Sanjeev. The three days of vigorous training was a well needed wake up call for an indication of the hard work it would take to win a championshiop. Although the training wasn't easy, Sanjeev had an enthusiastic way of instructing the program that actually made working hard fun and rewarding at the end of they day. It was a motiviational beginner to the beginning of our season."

"Sanjeev makes the speed, agility, and quickness sessions sport specific. He has a way of taking the athletes to that next level. That explosive power is what we want in all our players and Sanjeev has the knack to bring it out."
