Efford Elite Reviews 

This program is great for anyone who wants to improve at soccer. The feedback is direct and it is a lifelong ownership with many training sessions. I would definitely recommend.

Joe’s program is the real deal! As a player in the program I was able to build the skill and confidence to be scouted and trial with clubs in Europe. Now as a coach the program allows me to use the drills and tactical knowledge to help our players grow their skill. Forge is my recommendation for my players and anyone with a vision to be in college or pro environments.

This program is great for players at all levels and is great for developing the mental,technical,physical and tactical aspects of the game and personally has helped me improve my confidence,1v1 ability and my crossing ability and the community is very helpful and quick to respond and it has changed my perspective of how I think about how much I should train and recovery

Great, comprehensive soccer training and development program built by a long time European professional player.

User friendly with videos and explanations on each skill and organized extremely well by fundamental skill.

Founder is very involved and responsive to questions.

Highly recommend, wish I found it earlier!

Forge has made me from being injured at the start of the u13 season, having no confidence playing 11 aside, and being one of the worst players coming into a new team. To playing a grade up for one of the best teams in New Zealand, having the confidence and skill to beat players who are bigger and stronger than me, and being the top scorer of the team in my u13 season.

This community has been incredible for helping my son in his soccer journey! Joe and Salua have organized a wealth of resources for organizing and structuring his training and development that take the guesswork out of planning. The feedback, encouragement and answers to specific questions has been another great benefit of being part of this group. I can’t recommend this highly enough for any aspiring footballers at any level. If you’re willing to put in the work, the results are going to come!

Great resource for soccer players really trying to get to their best. Took me from grassroots to one of the highest tiers of soccer in my area. Would definitely recommend!

1 year and 2 month ago i joined forge to level up my game and fix a lot of things.This program help me for my technical ability first touch out of air,my passing,football iq,tactical understanding of the game.With this program i start my first big step “of my career “to play for pro academy u19 2rd division of greece season 2025-2026 and now im playing 3rd division of greece mens football.

I personally didn't believe in online coaching, until I joined forge.

It has been an absolute game changer and has helped me improve my game drastically over these past 6 months. Its not only developed my technical and physical ability but also my daily habits ,confidence and how I treat my body off the field.

Joe and Salua have put time and effort into this program and its shown through the progression in myself and all the other members of forge.

If you want to develop your game and go levels I would definitely give this program a shot.

Joe has provided great personal training for me through my off season. On top of the personal plan he is always there to provide professional advice from experience and for the situation I may be in. Whether it’s soccer or for therapy during an injury I couldn’t recommend him and his program enough. Also thank you Salua for always supporting and providing professional advise on healthy food and vitamins.

Joe is very knowledgeable and communicates clearly and precisely. I would highly recommend for anyone is who is serious about improving any or all aspects of there game.

This program has genuinely helped me improve all aspects of my game from all the topics it covers like speed, strength, technical ability, endurance, mental side, tactically, along with many others. The main reason why I got this was because I didn’t know what drills to do or how to keep improving which this massively helped. It also walks you through how to do the exercises and is easy to follow along.
Inside the program there is chats where you can ask questions, post training footage, highlights, wins, but the best would be the Inner Circle chat where you can ask Joe, Salua, along with all the other members for what you may need. You can also upgrade your membership if you want to include even more.
Overall a great experience and I would highly recommend!

From spending over a 1000€ on private training and getting kicked out of 2 teams to buying the best program in the whole world for less than 150€ and being self motivated and slowly starting To see my progress on my football journey all done by the wonderman Joe efford. Joe doesn’t only teach you how to be the player you need to be but also how you deal mentally with things on and off the pitch and is with everything straight with you to have the mentality as how the pros do. Since I joined his program I felt like I am in a football heaven because of all the opportunities you have in the program to make yourself a better player. My advice for every parent or child player. Do not doubt a second if you are serious about your football career and want to go further and further. Buy the program and the results will speak for themselves with the help from Joe.

It helps me so much to improve as a player

They helped me go from Sunday league to playing against pro academies in Europe in 1 season. Really knowledgeable highly recommend

I joined the program about a year ago, mainly to structure my trainings. At first, it was hard to do, because there was just the guide how to do it and it was tricky to do the rest by myself, but now it is a setup, where you just write what you need and it builds the schedule for you. Also, I like that there are specific trainings for every aspect of the game, so I don't have to organise it myself. I made HUGE progress in my footballing career during this year in the program. I'm very grateful to Joe for creating it.

I using this program for a 3-4 weeks already, and in this period program developed, Joe add a new good tips there, and also this is very good program for a young players who want try to go pro and develop faster, there is all what you need to know at any aspects, on the field and off the field, I very happy that I bought this program and grateful to Joe and Salua that they made this incredible project

Forge has helped me improve immensely. When I got the program I was starting a new position at winger, and it has helped me grow my mental, technical, and physical skills at a very quick rate. It gives you structured training sessions and schedules, and it is all directly from a high level professional player. 10/10 would recommend to anyone interested in improving

The videos, drills, and personalized schedule are excellent and have helped improve my son’s dribbling ability and comfort with the ball. Access to Coach Joe and the community has also helped inspire and motivate my son to work harder for his goals. This has all helped him reach the top team of his club and the pre-academy program for a MLS team.
