Anne Arundel County has one of the most active youth soccer communities in Maryland. Communities like Annapolis, Severna Park, Crofton, Pasadena, Glen Burnie, Odenton, and Arnold are home to hundreds of young players competing in recreational leagues, travel clubs, and high school programs. Many Anne Arundel families are deeply invested in their children’s athletic development and private soccer training is increasingly how the most serious players are getting their edge.
At Touch Lab Soccer Training, we bring personalized, USSF-licensed coaching directly to players throughout Anne Arundel County. Lead coach Paul Jackiewicz has been developing youth players across the region since 2013, and he knows what it takes to help an athlete move from average to standout.

The Challenge for Anne Arundel County Players
Anne Arundel County players face a unique challenge: the level of competition is high, but the window for individual coaching within a team setting is narrow. Travel club practices focus on team shape and tactics. Recreational programs don’t have the staff or time for individual technical work. High school coaches are managing full rosters.
The result is that technically-gifted players often have bad habits that never get corrected and those habits show up at exactly the wrong moment, like tryouts.
Private soccer training with Touch Lab fills that gap. Your child works directly with Coach Paul in a distraction-free environment focused entirely on their development. There’s no waiting in line for a turn. No being lost in a group drill. Just focused, structured coaching designed to produce results.
One-on-One Soccer Training in Anne Arundel County, MD
Every private session in Anne Arundel County begins with an honest assessment of where the player is and where they need to go. Coach Paul works with players from Annapolis to Odenton to Glen Burnie, designing sessions that address each athlete’s specific challenges.
Common areas of focus include:
- Ball control under pressure — staying composed when a defender is closing
- Dribbling in tight spaces — essential for players in congested midfield roles
- Passing accuracy and range — from short combinations to switching the field
- Finishing with both feet — turning scoring opportunities into goals
- 1v1 defending — proper footwork, body position, and patience
- Confidence building — developing the mindset to compete without hesitation
Players preparing for tryouts at competitive Anne Arundel programs, or those who want to earn more starting time, consistently find that a few sessions with Coach Paul produces a noticeable difference on the field.
Group Soccer Training in Anne Arundel County, MD
Touch Lab Soccer Training also offers small group soccer training sessions for Anne Arundel County players who want to train with friends, siblings, or teammates. Group sessions are structured to maximize every player’s touches on the ball while creating a competitive, high-energy training environment.
These sessions are especially popular for:
- Friends from the same club team sharpening skills between club training sessions
- Families with two soccer-playing kids who can train together efficiently
- Players at similar skill levels who want the motivation of competition during drills
Unlike large soccer camps, group sessions at Touch Lab never sacrifice coaching quality. The group stays small, and Coach Paul remains hands-on with every player throughout the session.
