Meet Your coach
HI, I’M ETIENNE TESTA, AND I’M PASSIONATE ABOUT HELPING YOUNG PLAYERS DISCOVER THE JOY OF SOCCER WHILE BUILDING SKILLS THAT LAST A LIFETIME.
As a centerback for Minnesota United’s U18 team, I understand what it takes to develop technical skills, game awareness, and confidence on the field. But more importantly, I know that every child learns differently, and I tailor my coaching to meet each player exactly where they are.
This summer, I'm offering one-on-one and small group training designed specifically for players ages 6-12 who want to accelerate their skills, prepare for fall tryouts, or simply gain confidence and have fun. Whether your child is just starting out or looking to level up, I'm here to guide them every step of the way.
Let's make this summer unforgettable—on and off the field.
allez! allez! let’s go.
