Finding the right soccer coach in Waldorf shouldn’t mean driving across the county to a crowded facility. Touch Lab Soccer Training is a mobile coaching service that brings USSF licensed, individualized instruction straight to the parks and fields Waldorf players already know. Two formats are available: one-on-one sessions for players chasing a specific breakthrough, and small group sessions, capped at 8 players, for those who train better with a little competition beside them.
Soccer Training Designed Around the Player, Not a Curriculum
Charles County has produced its share of standout youth talent, and Waldorf sits right at the center of that growth. Between local rec leagues, travel clubs, and school programs, there’s no shortage of places for a young player to log minutes on the field. What’s harder to find is a coach who slows down long enough to notice exactly what’s holding a player back, then builds every drill around fixing it.
That’s the entire premise behind Touch Lab. Sessions start with an honest look at where a player currently stands, technically and tactically, and the training plan is shaped from there. Nothing about the approach is templated. A player struggling to finish in tight spaces trains differently than one who needs to build confidence playing out of the back.
One-on-One Soccer Training in Waldorf
For players who need concentrated, undivided coaching attention, one-on-one sessions are the most direct path to improvement. There’s no waiting for a turn and no splitting attention across a group. Every rep, every correction, and every minute of the hour is built around a single athlete.
This format tends to be the right call for:
Players trying to correct one specific issue, like a weak first touch or a hesitant weak foot Athletes gearing up for tryouts, a club evaluation, or a showcase Younger kids still building the ball mastery fundamentals that everything else depends on Goalkeepers who need position specific technical work Players coming back from injury who need a coach controlling the pace and intensity
Because the session bends entirely around one player’s needs, progress tends to show up faster than in a group setting, particularly on technical issues that need repeated, focused correction.
Small Group Soccer Training in Waldorf (Up to 8 Players)
Small group soccer training keeps the personalized coaching but adds the energy of training beside teammates. Groups are intentionally kept small, up to 8 players, so the sessions never turn into a large camp where kids stand around waiting between reps.
Families in Waldorf tend to choose small group training when:
Their player already trains with a set group of friends or club teammates and wants to keep developing together Budget matters and a lower per player rate makes sense for the family The player responds well to competition and pushes harder when training alongside others A travel or club team wants extra reps built around real game situations between regular practices
Every small group session blends technical work with possession games and small sided scrimmages, so players are applying what they’re learning under actual game pressure, not just running through drills in isolation.

What a Session Looks Like
Whether it’s one on one or small group, sessions follow the same intentional structure: a dynamic warm up to get players moving, a technical focus tied to that day’s specific goal, competitive game realistic activity to apply it, and a short cool down where the coach gives direct, specific feedback to the player and parent. Sessions run at well kept public parks and fields around Waldorf, scheduled around school, club practice, and whatever else is already on the family calendar.
The Coach
Touch Lab Soccer Training is run by Paul Jackiewicz, a USSF licensed coach with direct experience at the Manchester City Soccer Academy at Sofive and the Skills Institute Soccer Program. That academy background shapes how every session is built, with a heavy emphasis on the technical foundation and game intelligence that higher level programs expect from their players.
Serving Waldorf and the Rest of Charles County
Beyond Waldorf, Touch Lab Soccer Training regularly works with families throughout Charles County, including La Plata, White Plains, Indian Head, and St. Charles, as well as neighboring Prince George’s County. As a mobile service, sessions are held at a location convenient to your family, with a no fee travel radius and clearly listed rates for sessions further out.
Schedule a Session in Waldorf
Spots are limited because every player on the schedule gets real, individualized attention rather than a slot in an oversized group. Reach out today to book a one on one or small group session and find the training format that fits your player best.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between one on one and small group training? One on one training puts the coach’s full attention on a single player for the entire session, making it the fastest route to fixing a specific technical issue. Small group training, capped at 8 players, still delivers individual coaching but adds a competitive, team like environment at a lower cost per player.
Where do sessions take place in Waldorf? Sessions are held at public parks and fields around Waldorf. We’ll work with you to pick a location that’s convenient and well suited for training.
What ages and skill levels do you coach? We train players across a wide range of ages, from beginners building fundamental ball skills to competitive travel and club players preparing for tryouts and showcases.
Can a group of friends or club teammates train together? Yes. Small group sessions are a popular option for players who already train or play together and want extra reps outside of regular team practice.
Is there an extra charge for sessions in Waldorf? Waldorf falls within our standard service area. Sessions further from our home base may include a tiered travel fee, which we’ll confirm when you book.
