01 · Philosophy

A quiet obsession with detail.

Proxima Coaching exists for players who take football seriously. We work with the ones who already put in the hours — and want their hours to count.

Every session is designed around one player. No generic drills, no crowded pitches, no wasted reps. Just precise, measurable work aimed at the version of you that plays two levels higher.

01

Precision Training

Every session engineered around measurable outcomes — first touch, decision speed, finishing under pressure.

02

Path to the Top

A long-term plan built around your position, your level, and where you're trying to get. Not a program. A path.

03

Personal Approach

One player, one coach, one focus. Sessions are private, deliberate, and adapted week by week.

02 · Method

Deliberate work. Nothing wasted.

ITechnique

The ball obeys the details.

First touch, weight of pass, body shape, angle of receive. We isolate the micro-skills that decide games and rebuild them until they're automatic under pressure.

IIIntelligence

Read the game before it happens.

Scanning, spacing, decision speed. Video-supported sessions and small-sided scenarios that force better choices at higher tempo.

03 · Journey

Five stages, one trajectory.

    STAGE 01

    Assessment

    Full technical, tactical and physical baseline. We measure before we prescribe.

    STAGE 02

    Individual Plan

    A 12-week trajectory tailored to your position, level, and next benchmark.

    STAGE 03

    Technical Coaching

    Private on-pitch sessions with immediate feedback and video review.

    STAGE 04

    Match Intelligence

    Small-sided scenarios and match footage sessions to sharpen decisions.

    STAGE 05

    Continuous Progress

    Monthly reassessment and plan updates. The path evolves as you do.

Voices

The first four weeks with Joel completely changed how I see the pitch. My coach at the club noticed within a month.

Elias K.

U19, Regional Academy

Every session is planned to the minute. Nothing is filler. I've never trained with anyone this deliberate.

Marcus V.

Semi-pro, Central Midfielder

Joel treats it like a project. Baseline, plan, weekly review, results. My son moved up two levels in one season.
