The Givargis Soccer Method and Philosophy

The Givargis Soccer School was established in 1983. We are the only program in the area to provide year round training to our students. Our 2,500+ square foot indoor arena in Manassas, Virginia has classes six days a week. Our Mission is to provide the highest quality skills training for young athletes. Our classes are demanding and the end results are impressive.

We describe our program as TOTAL soccer. The program is a combined concept of International Play and the Givargis Method.. The corner stone of the Givargis Method is Jim Givargis. He is present and actively involved in all training sessions. When you attend the Givargis Soccer School, you get Jim Givargis' full time attention. The Givargis Method is based on the belief that in order for an athlete to become a complete player they must be 100% confident with their ability to control the ball with all parts of their body. Once the ball control foundation is established, the skills of shooting, passing and dribbling are introduced and refined. The Givargis Method is not magic. It requires dedication and hard work!

Our core philosophy is that in order for soccer training to be effective for young athletes, the training must include two key elements. These elements are that the students must have FUN and experience SUCCESS. Experience has taught us that disciplined, demanding training develops soccer skills. When an athlete is successful, the game is much more fun.
