GGS is THE BEST. Coaches are fantastic and great group of talented kids as well. Our son has developed so much within the Competitive Program and I cannot speak more positively about the impact it has had on our son. Our family has been part of other local Competitive Clubs and none compare to GGS. The motivation, drive, positivity, diversity of kids, coaching expertise is fantastic here!!! Just check it out - you'll see the results on the field!

GGS is a great soccer academy! My son plays soccer for long time and weve found here an awesome staff, a great communication between staff and parents and the best coach my son could have. Coach Marco is amazing! Best training! Thank you GGS for having us and help Matteo to improve and developer his skills.

The academy in general is good, but I have a huge problem letting my son play under a coach called Carlos Carlet that has a fake resume, no coaching certificate. Also, is well known in the academy that he likes to have relationships with married mothers and this is accepted by the owners (I was a victim of him). This does not stop here, this person in charge of our kids cheats the IRS, is illegal in the country and has a fraud marriage to earn his working papers. This is too much for me and I hope the academy does right and kicks this person out.

My son has been on competitive soccer journey for 6 years. GGS is our 3rd club. We as parents moved to GGS because we loved the positive energy of the club and the passion and loyalty of the owners Marcos and Marconi Machado. I truly appreciate that their main focus is development of players and they deliver it from their heart. Our son has been there only two years but he has gained so much experiences by training with so many different players and coaches on different levels. He is definitely challenged his diversity, flexibility and resilience which are required on a life journey as well. We
