Testimonials

"Tasher has an amazing knowledge and love of the game and is an awesome soccer player himself. In the short year and a half that he worked with my team mates and I in Cranbrook, he totally committed himself to us and the game. Tasher and I stayed late after practice many a time, to get that move just right, to get that curve in the right spot, to get your body in the right position, to run faster, get better control, the list keeps on going. After he season ended he invited all members of the team to go and condition in a gym, he became mine and a few others personal trainers. Jump higher, run faster, more explosive, fitness, body position and strength, are just a few thing I can name off the top of my head. Tasher and I got very close and I was sad to see him leave. I hope that you get the opportunity that I got to work with the best coach I have ever had."- Peter Black

                 


"I've been managing the Kootenay Rovers Boys Select Soccer Team for the past four years during which we've had several different coaches. My son is on the team as are five of his closest friends who I see all the time, so I see the impact of coaching first-hand, as well as hearing from the boys' perspective and see the results amongst them longer term. Tasher Adaarewa coached the team of 16 young men from the time they were 13 - 15 years old (2011-2012) with very significant positive impact. His soft-spoken, respectful, detailed explanations took the boys a little time to get used to at the beginning, since it required them to slow down and carefully listen to fully understand the concepts and principles. They were not accustomed to the high degree of individual attention and focused skill development and commitment that Tasher gave them. Then within a very short time, he had their rapt attention as they got to know him and understand the game (his game!), which he made theirs. He inspired them with his knowledge; skilled coaching; excellent soccer skills; fitness, and pure joy in the play. He lit the team's passion for the sport and now these boys are committed soccer players who will enjoy a lifelong love of the game. He worked with them tirelessly and each player realized so much about their individual potential and the benefits of their hard work for themselves and the team. Tasher's approach was extremely well-rounded - he has a wonderful sense of humour and is a great genuine mentor. Our boys really enjoyed and learned so much from their time with him and we miss him and wish we could get him back! I'd strongly recommend Tasher Adaarewa's soccer coaching and skill development programs."-Sue Cairns Kootenay Rovers Boys Select Soccer Team Manager and Parent


                         

"I worked with Tasher as a coach for KEYSA Soccer Association and together we coached a Rep U-15 team for a few years. Tasher was absolutely great to work with. His knowledge and grasp of the game and his knowledge of physical fitness training was incredible. We also played on the same competitive soccer team. I highly recommend Tasher's expertise in those areas. In my opinion he would be a great assets to any organization."- Chris Franklin, Coach and Player, Cranbrook, BC
