Total Focus Soccer Training & Advising

Exciting News from Total Focus! ?? The past few months have been incredibly busy, but I’m thrilled to finally share some big news: Total Focus is expanding! I’ve secured a brand new location in Deale, Maryland, and I’m currently in the process of building a state-of-the-art training facility that will provide the best possible environment for high-performance soccer training. As a soccer trainer, this has always been a dream of mine—to be able to train athletes in a world-class setting that truly matches their level of commitment and skill. This new facility will be just that: a top-tier space where athletes can push their limits and reach their full potential. The facility will feature top-of-the-line turf, rebounding walls, high-quality soccer equipment, a dedicated gym for performance (coming soon), areas for film analysis, and a comfortable lounge for athletes and guests to relax and recharge. What excites me most about this new space is the opportunity it gives me to take training to the next level. It will allow me to offer an even more comprehensive training experience, combining physical, mental, and technical development all under one roof. I truly believe this facility will help my athletes unlock their full potential and set new standards of excellence in their training. I can’t wait to open the doors and welcome everyone into this new chapter of Total Focus. Stay tuned for updates in the coming weeks as we finalize everything and get closer to the opening date. I'm excited for what's to come and confident this new location will take Total Focus—and the athletes we train—to even greater heights! Interested in Renting Field Space?

https://lnkd.in/es4dFdTF To introduce myself further, my name is Alex Abril. I recently completed my Division 1 soccer career at High Point University, where we won six trophies and reached new heights in the NCAA Tournament. Along with my on the field success, I graduated with both a Bachelor's Degree in Sport Management and a Master's Degree in Communication and Business Leadership. My journey included significant challenges, however. In my final year, I suffered an injury described to me as "catastrophic"—tearing my ACL, MCL, and meniscus, sidelining me for 12 months at a pivotal point in my career. Despite this, I focused on my recovery and leaned on the support of my coaches, teammates, and family, which helped me to play an important role in my final season at High Point. During this time, I learned some of the most important lessons that I continue to take with me. The first being the importance on everything off the field and how you treat your body through nutrition, and the extra work that you do both physically and mentally. The second is to focus on the "smaller" aspects of the game: your first touch, cleanliness on the ball, and consistency. These things make the difference for players competing at the highest levels. That next season, we went on to win Big South Conference and Tournament Championships and advance to my fourth NCAA Tournament. I was blessed to receive opportunities to trial with MLS Next Pro and USL 1 teams. Although these didn’t result in contracts, the experience and feedback were invaluable. Now, I take these lessons with me into each team I play for, including the Annapolis Blues FC, ending the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) regular season ranked 2nd in the nation and currently in the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) playing for Arlington Soccer Association. I share this to show what’s possible with resilience, hard work, and the right support. Now, I’m dedicated to providing a platform for young athletes to reach their potential through Total Focus, where I aim to provide the tools and mindset needed to achieve their dreams. This article is from my first game back.
