Specialties
We work with 3 to 11 year old children using innovative and advanced methods of teaching. We have scheduled classes and/or work with parents to develop private sessions even at your own home. First its about the kids having fun and then how to get them to excel above their known abilities by teaching using «Parent & Me» techniques, for the youngest, and the latest skill development techniques for the older’s. We accomplish this for the most part without the kids even realizing they are learning.
History
Established in 2000.
Grasshoppers Soccer was originally developed in Japan in 1991. Nigel Chisholm, the developer, has now decades of experience which has seen the program expand both to Australia and the USA. Tighe O’Sullivan was introduced and given the franchise in 2000 when Mr. Chishom and Mr. O’Sullivan shared a room at a USSF National Coaching License course. They have been friends ever since and the techniques were passed on both here in California (Chisholm now a resident of Ojai, CA), and in Japan. Mr. O’Sullivan hope to expand Grasshoppers more Regionally & even Nationally over time. It is only help up by finding other coaches who can work within the parameters of curriculum and have the desire to expand with the company.

Business Owner
Mr. O’Sullivan has been coaching and working with kids for more than 25 years. He has been versed in the Grasshopper Methods for nearly half of this time although the majority of his sessions have been in smaller private groups of 8 – 12 kids. A former USMNT Asst. Coach for beach soccer, collegiate player, and high amateur, he brings his experience that started as a summer camp director of soccer for ‘little ones’ when he was only 14 years old. He has more than 20 years of coaching professional experience in the Bay Area and was one of the first paid trainers ever in Marin County. Not only one of the most knowledgeable soccer minds in the Bay Area, but someone who cares about the impact he has on all players both past, present and future.
