They send a quick note every few weeks on what he's working on. This program has been totally worth it, and we will sign up for anything they put on.\u003cbr\u003eMarcus D. | 5 | No surprise fees | 2026\/Fall | Signed up for the monthly plan and I've been charged exactly that every month. Whenever I need to miss a session, they're really responsive with refunds or moving to a new date.\u003cbr\u003ePriya S. | 5 | Same coach all season | 2026\/Fall | We've had the same coach since we started. It makes a big difference for us from previous academies, having someone who knows what she actually needs to work on.\u003cbr\u003eDeclan F. | 3 | Wish the pause option was easier to find | 2026\/Fall | We had to skip a month for a family trip, and it took a couple emails back and forth to get it sorted. Wish they had an easier process, although we did get our money back.\u003cbr\u003eWarrick T. | 5 | Still just as excited to go | 2026\/Fall | Was worried the extra training would burn her out but it's the opposite, she still asks to go every week. They keep it fun. The coaches have a ton of energy.\u003cbr\u003eBianca L. | 5 | Cancelled for the summer, no drama | 2026\/Fall | We paused over the summer for family stuff and it was super quick. We're signing back up in September.\u003cbr\u003eFarrow M. | 5 | Fits around our schedule | 2026\/Fall | This is so convenient, being in the evenings and very close to us. Plus, we love how much confidence it's bringing my son.\u003cbr\u003eSeraphine K. | 5 | Honest about the scholarship stuff | 2026\/Fall | Asked directly if this would help her get recruited, and the coach just gave me the information I need to start the process. That stuff is invaluable to me.\u003cbr\u003eRowan B. | 5 | She's way more confident | 2026\/Fall | She stands way differently now. More willing to try things and fail. Speaks up at school more too. This program has been amazing.\u003cbr\u003eDelphine W. | 5 | He finally has some discipline | 2026\/Fall | He used to give up easily when there was resistance. The coaches have really taught him discipline and it's showing in his school as well.\u003cbr\u003eOsric N. | 5 | Made friends, not just teammates | 2026\/Fall | Love our training group. We've made friends from other clubs, and the girls hang out regularly outside of practice.\u003cbr\u003eCassandra P. | 5 | Off the tablet finally | 2026\/Fall | We've been in two sessions a week for a couple months now, and he's noticeably more active even at home, a lot less screen time.\u003cbr\u003eTorin E. | 5 | Felt safe from day one | 2026\/Fall | Asked a lot of questions about supervision and coaching ratios before signing up, and all of them were answered. It's been very professional.\u003cbr\u003eAnouk H. | 5 | An amazing deal for the price | 2026\/Fall | For the price, this is an amazing deal. I was thinking there would be some extra fees or something, but it's always been exactly what I signed up for.\u003cbr\u003ePercival D. | 4 | Progress reports actually mean something | 2026\/Fall | Love getting the update every month, my only wish is it came with a bit more detail on what to work on at home. Small thing, still glad it exists.\u003cbr\u003eWilhelmina S. | 5 | Small group training changed her game | 2026\/Fall | Training in this small group apart from our team has totally changed her confidence, and she's one of the top players on her team now.\u003cbr\u003eBarclay O. | 5 | Worth every month | 2026\/Fall | Six months in, and this has been the best money I've ever spent. She's feeling much better about herself, happier, and looks forward to being with her friends every week.\u003cbr\u003e[\/REVIEWS]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Motive Athletics","offers":[{"title":"Tuesdays (Nov 3 - Dec 8) \/ Born 2010-2013 \/ Not Including Motive T-Shirt (Existing Motive players)","offer_id":67638905405592,"sku":null,"price":239.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tuesdays (Nov 3 - Dec 8) \/ Born 2010-2013 \/ Including Motive T-Shirt (Mandatory for new players) +$20.00","offer_id":67638905438360,"sku":null,"price":259.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tuesdays (Nov 3 - Dec 8) \/ Born 2014-2016 \/ Not Including Motive T-Shirt (Existing Motive players)","offer_id":67638905471128,"sku":null,"price":239.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tuesdays (Nov 3 - Dec 8) \/ Born 2014-2016 \/ Including Motive T-Shirt (Mandatory for new players) +$20.00","offer_id":67638905503896,"sku":null,"price":259.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tuesdays (Nov 3 - Dec 8) \/ Born 2017-2020 \/ Not Including Motive T-Shirt (Existing Motive players)","offer_id":67638905536664,"sku":null,"price":239.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tuesdays (Nov 3 - Dec 8) \/ Born 2017-2020 \/ Including Motive T-Shirt (Mandatory for new players) +$20.00","offer_id":67638905569432,"sku":null,"price":259.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/7420\/1752\/files\/halifax-goalkeeper-academy.jpg?v=1791129180","url":"https:\/\/motiveathletics.ca\/products\/halifax-goalkeeper-academy","provider":"Motive Athletics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
