Here’s what people have to say about Techne
We love hearing how Techne is spreading the love of soccer and helping players improve!
"I have been involved with the United States Women’s National Team program for a long time and there are players that have come through the youth teams over the years that have made a lasting impression on me for one reason or another. Yael Averbuch is one of those players. The two things that I will always remember about Yael is her love for the game and her motivation to improve. And the second is her technical ability. She worked hard at her game and one of the main reasons she was able to reach her goals internationally and professionally was because of her ability to handle the ball under pressure. I cannot think of a better person to introduce an application on developing technical skills in the game of soccer than Yael Averbuch."
Steve Swanson
Head Coach, University of Virginia
"I can not think of a better person to teach players technical aspect of the game. There are so many different reasons that makes Yael special and suited for something like that. First and foremost she is a great person, cares, and has respect for people and for the game. Yael has tremendous love and passion for the game that has guided her through her career and helped her become a very good player. The ability to perfectly demonstrate the techniques is just going to make everything she does more personal. Yael has already proven that she can reach lots of young players that are willing to accept her advice and follow her footsteps."
Vlatko Andonovski
Head Coach, U.S. Women’s National Team
"Yael is one of the most technical soccer players in the world. She has a unique expertise, and is eager to share it with the next generation of players. She is an intelligent, diligent person and a highly motivated athlete, and there is no doubt in my mind that this will be a successful endeavor."
Heather O’Reilly
3x Olympic Gold Medalist, World Cup Champion
"One of the hardest things to predict in collegiate recruiting is how effectively a talented player will organize her life to improve. It is a strange alchemy of love of the ball, love of the game, drive, self discipline but also an understanding of what to do, how often you do it and how deliberately and intensely. Yael Averbuch was the poster child for this “self coaching” while she played for me. Her freshman year she fought her way into the starting line up and by her sophomore year she was the National Player of the Year and a national champion. She achieved this with what she designed and did on her own. This commitment to improve is at the core of any kind of athletic greatness and Yael is the ideal person to share how it’s done."

Some Insight From Real Players, Clubs and Teams Training With Techne Futbol
Our girls and boys players at TSJ FC Virginia have used Techne to help improve their game. Our players do Techne before training, after training, on off days, on bad weather days, and some do it every day as part of their routine. Techne helps our players develop by giving them a tool they can use to work on areas of need in their game. If your club is not using this app, then you need to start using it today. Techne is a great resource for players to own their development outside of your training environment, helping reinforce the skills needed to be successful on the pitch.
Techne has been a vital tool for our players to be given a high level of technical training that players can perform even in small spaces and without a lot of equipment. The training is individually paced so players can push themselves as much or as little as they need to. Techne helps our coaches with being able to provide an at home competition for training. Coaches can look at the weekly statistics and see the direct impact that training at home is having on a players on field success.
There aren't enough minutes in the week in our club sessions to really give any players the amount of time and touches they need and cover everything else if you want really truly technically efficient players. The Techne App provides an excellent addition training opportunity that's measurable and can be tracked and also is of high quality. The drills are great and they work. We have seen a marked improvement in the players finishing high up on their leaderboards and logging this extra hours at home. This is just simply a really great tool to supplement your training and support and help your players to continue their growth and development in the moments they aren't out on the field with you as a coach.
This is Cainhoy Fury sporting their Techne socks as a team. We are a huge fan of your app and it has become a big part of our weekly training. Every practice we go over the weekly drills. Their is no way to ever get bored or not challenged with your drills. Thank you!
The Techne app has been such an awesome addition to my daily routine. It has greatly increased my level of comfort on the ball and has helped me make tangible progress every day. I can’t recommend it enough to field players and goalkeepers of all ages who want to take their games to the next level.
My team has been using Techne to hone their skills at home. It’s given us that extra edge in our training sessions and games. Instead of having to focus on basic skills development in training we are working on applying those skills to the game. On top of that, my team loves the weekly sessions and the leaderboard keeps them engaged and motivated to continue working hard throughout the week.
The technical aspect of the game is so important and often is over looked. This app is the perfect way to incorporate technical work into your sessions and also affords coaches the ability to focus and plan other aspects of training while players do technical work on their own. It can be used before training or in the off season. I've seen a dramatic change in our players first touch this spring season having had our players use the Techne App over winter break. I would highly recommend the app to players at any level.
We have integrated Techne into the Iowa ODP methodology. We believe that, when training in a group setting, we should take advantage of the ability to learn in an environment with teammates and opponents. Therefore, in order to ensure we are also developing technical proficiency, we utilize the Techne app and empower our players to master the ball in their own time. If you are looking for a tool to help players develop the technical aspects of the game, Techne is a no brainer.
I’ve had my team doing Techne since 8/31/18. I love the simplicity of the drills and the fact that I can track it as a coach. There is a good mix of things that my players are familiar with and some new concepts that have been fun to incorporate. I love the app and I am grateful for you bringing it to us through your years of experience.
I believe that Techne has helped my team to take responsibility for their soccer development. They know that three hours of practice a week with me will not be enough to be a competitive team. Also, their first touch is much better, and their dribbling has improved as well. Overall, their technique and skills are much better after using Techne consistently. I would recommend making Techne training a REQUIREMENT in their teams. Soccer is a skill and must be practiced daily. Techne is a wonderful tool, and all players must use it to improve their skills
This app has everything you need to elevate your game to the next level. If you or your child is looking to take your development into your own hands, this is a great place to start and keep going!
I love Techne so much. I can compete with teammates doing different drills made up of dribbling skills, wall passing, and juggling. Coaches can see your progress too. You can also put in custom leaderboards with sisters, brothers, or other friend not on your team. You can see improvement within yourself, and become a way better soccer player. To keep a streak you have to complete ten minutes of training a day. One thing I would recommend is putting in a function where players can put in how long their games are and that could count towards your streak minutes. I know that people could misuse that though. But also I know you are supposed to train outside of set games an practices so understand why not to put that in. All and all the I have seen improvement in juggling and one on one moves. I love this app!!
It has drills on everything even your mentality, I feel like it has helped me on every skill I didn’t feel comfortable about. You can set your difficulty if it’s to easy or to hard. One of the best training apps I’ve used.
Techne is a great way to practice my soccer skills, And I’ve really improved a whole bunch! It’s easy to operate there’s videos explaining how to do the activity you have to do, and there’s even things you can do inside if it’s raining, snowing, or the weather is not well, you can do it inside! Techne is great and I think you should give it a shot!
Why I love Techne Futbol is because when my soccer is canceled because of the weather, it helps me train by myself. It also helps me compete with my teammates. I became captain because of it!!
I wish we had known about this app years ago. My 13yo daughter loves Techne and has seen significant improvement in her skills since she started using it 56-ish days (and counting!) ago. We live in the PNW and she is thrilled to finally have a way to practice indoors when it is too wet and dark outside to practice in the backyard. Being able to compete against other players is a the icing on the cake.
The Techne platform has helped coaches support their players in many aspects of development. Since our players began utilizing the app, I have seen more comfort with the ball, more ideas, more players willing to use their 2nd favorite foot, better balance and coordination. I have also seen some players learn how to make time for their own development, set goals, challenge a teammate; all skills that will help in other avenues of life. Coaches also have support in providing assignments to do at home with videos, a variation of levels. It’s got it all. Techne continues to listen, engage and grow as well so there is always something new.
