Meet Jeremie.
I am a former professional soccer player with over 7 years of professional soccer experience. As a former pro & collegiate standout, I know what it takes to play at those levels. I founded Global Fútbol Training, LLC., in 2007 to support the future generations of soccer players. My focus now is on the principles of long-term player development.
Drafted into the MLS in 2002 as one of only two Division II athletes, I played professional soccer on four continents in 17 different countries. I was also drafted to play indoor soccer professionally by San Diego and offered a contract by the Dallas Sidekicks. I have coached for Stanford University camps & also started the first soccer program at Mission Arlington as a not-for-profit outreach endeavor to impoverished youth. A collegiate standout at West Texas A&M University, my honors include National Scholar, NSCAA Adidas All-Region 1st Team, 1st Team All-Conference and Team Defensive MVP, and Academic All-American.
I am considered by influencer agencies as an expert in the field of youth soccer and collegiate soccer preparation. I have personally trained over 300 elite soccer players and consults with elite high school and collegiate athletes from across the country. I am married with two daughters and reside in the DFW Metroplex area. I’ve also written a discipleship course just for athletes.
“Never stop wanting to improve.”

About Global Fútbol Training.
Founded in 2007 by Jeremie Piette, Global Fútbol Training, LLC (GFT) supports and develops the future generations of soccer players. It is our philosophy that, like many youth sports, youth soccer must be about technique and games first, not just the tactics in the games. We believe that you must teach players the fundamental skills and then they will learn the game of soccer.
We train all ages and skill levels, from youth National players to new players of the game. We promote a collaborative training environment, boosting skill level and confidence through Team Training, Private Individual Training, Private Group Training, Open Group Training and Seasonal. Our Trainers are solely focused on your players improvement. We have locations in 4 DFW counties.
Global Fútbol Training is not a Club and are not affiliated with, nor a facilitator of, any club recruitment.
At GFT, we only do 1 thing: Player Development
The trainers and I develop, improve, and promote the player as an individual.
We do this year-round: This is our only job.
DFW is one of the most elite, challenging, soccer arenas in the U.S., with deep player pools of talent and a collection of highly competitive leagues. Our trainers have collective experienced over 22 countries as soccer players. For many of them, including me, soccer training is their FT job.
We are professionals
As former soccer pros, collegiate standouts, licensed USSF coaches, and a FIFA player agent, our trainers have always understood all that soccer players (& youth) need to be successful in the short and long term: psychology, nutrition, rehab, professional resources, training, and application.
We are highly recommended
Our player’s testimonials, levels of play, and parental endorsements are just the beginning. Our greatest accomplishment is when our players text saying, “I’m sitting in the locker room, about to start my first D-1 soccer game and I just wanted to text you and say thank you for all you’ve done to help me get here.” (true story)
We are close to home
We have multiple locations in DFW; players fly and drive to us from out of state or visit us when they’re here from outside the U.S. but we also offer online training through our GFT courses.
