YSSA Ottawa

Cant say enough about this club, I brought my son to YSSA after being fed up with the highly political mentality of the parents and coaches of the previous club my son played with.I needed a club that was going to focus on my concerns of core skill development, sportsmanship, respect, teamwork and leadership. YSSA is completely aligned with my expectations of a Soccer Club, and my son has made leaps and bounds both on the field and at home.And 2 big thumbs up for all the coaches and staff at YSSA for creating an environment for fun and growth every meetup!

I have been taking my boys to YSSA for over 5 years it is not a team we are a family and we are always there for eachother the coaches are absolutely amazing very patient and kind but at the same time they are 100% dedicated to the kids and support them i highly recommend YSSA for any one looking for a soccer family

Highly Recommended! Coach's Nader and Benito are the best coaches that we have ever dealt with. They are passionate about soccer and it shows. My boys have learnt so much skill since joining YSSA three years ago. They are now both the YSSA competitive teams and playing with the top teams and leagues of the city. If you want your child to be appreciated and respected as a player and to also play at their full potential defenitely do not hesistate to register with YSSA

I appreciate the follow up from Nader after my review and this emphasizes his existing profession. He promised me and fulfilled his promise and improved the way of my son training.

Where do i start. YSSA has been great to us. Not only my children, but I see improvement in everyone, week in week out. Their training method is unbelievably adoptable and specialized. Growing up playing soccer myself I didn't know the things my 6 and 7 year old knew until I was an adult. Highly recommend to anyone in the Ottawa South, Findlay Creek, west area. Great coaches, great club!

Highly highly recommend for anyone in the Ottawa area with children trying to develop their game, social skills, leadership, etc. Programs serve anyone from beginners, to competitive, girls and boys, and the atmosphere is beyond positive. Coaches are very in tune with their players, know everyone's names (really impressive), and treat everyone like they're special. Thank you YSSA for giving my children confidence!

My son started his soccer journey with another club which was basically a waste of time. We then found YSSA. Finally we found a soccer home. A home that not only works on my child's soccer ability but builds up his self esteem, self awarenes, respect for others etc. The coaches coach the children in their academy with intelligence, compassion and a great love of the game. The motto of the academy is are you the voice or the echo" which to me instills a sense of leadership in my son. I would highly recommend this soccer academy to all parents out there who are considering soccer for their young man or woman."

This club has been nothing but amazing!We came to this club when my son had just turned 7 and was looking to play soccer through the winter. He had played with other leagues in the summers, but YSSA provided year round soccer. Tis was the best choice we made!It became apparent very quickly that coaches Nader and Benito were not your typical coaches. My son was asked to join their Elite/competitive team in his first practice and his development has been phenomenal!He has grown in skill, tactics, knowledge of the play and vision of the field, team work, leadership and so much more.Nader and Benito not only work on his knowledge of the game, but they have worked to instill amazing work ethic, co-operation and leadership for their players. I love how they put the boys up to a challenge, playing them up age groups so that they may learn from their failures as well as their successes.YSSA has become like an extension of our family and I look forward to many more seasons with them!

We've been to a few clubs in the city in the past couple years and YSSA is the best environment your children can be in, to say the least. The coaches have this infectious energy, the training is extremely age specific and specialized, they know everyone's names, and everyone seems so happy. I love watching my children practice or play, would definitely recommend to anyone in the Ottawa area (especially south end). Not to mention, they have a fully operational structured league for developmental players between 6 and 14 that only competitive players would experience at other clubs. Thank you YSSA!
