Why motor-cognitive training?

Motor-cognitive training is the success factor for making the game faster and, above all, more innovative and creative. Prerequisite: The brain of the football player must be systematically trained!

Our "COGNIGOALS Deep Learning" method promotes the targeted development of the networking between the eyes, brain, and body of our players. It trains the interactive control between body and mind. Remember: You can only actively influence the game when you have all of this under control and well-synchronized!

Two-footedness

The foundation. Dazzling dribbles, high-quality one-touch passes and accurate shots - with both feet!

Game intelligence

Can players really read the game? It's all a question of mental capacity and speed!

Creativity

Finding just one solution isn't enough! All players must come up with multiple, innovative and surprising solutions, and do so under the highest levels of decision-making pressure!

The Pros love us...

"My goal in my career is to make it to the highest level: playing Champions League games for a club and representing either Mexico or USA. On that journey, the COGNIGOALS training has helped me recognize situations better and adapt on and off the field much faster and more effectively."
Nico Carrera, Deportivo Toluca, previously Holstein Kiel
"Matthias Nowak has a creative and visionary approach to soccer skills development; his training has helped me to develop into a much more complete player; incorporating Matthias’ dynamic style and his effective and modern training systems into your own training is a highly beneficial tool for any coach to have."
Gina Lewandowski, Former Pro player (USWNT, FC Bayern Munich, FFC Frankfurt, NJ/NY Gotham FC)

... and our customers, too!

"One of my player's direct feedback highlighted: "Ever since I started training with this method, the pace of the game seems to slow down for me." I am thankful to be part of this progress, and I have never before encountered an approach quite like this."
Christian F.
"For me it was a huge surprise to see how fast the players adapted to the rather challenging exercises. I experienced an remarkable enthusiasm and desire to learn, witch is the mindset every trainer and parent want to witness!"
Adriaan D.
"I can say by experience that COGNIGOALS is a great company to develop your cognitive understanding in football. Big thanks to Felix Lehmann to introducing their program to me. I recommend that all youth coaches!"

"Really impressed with the quality of the exercises and the way the courses are explained! Nice job!"
Jeroen N.
"Been doing some of the COGNIGOALS stuff with both of my lads. Eldest is right footed, hit a shot from the edge of the box with his left today, forced the keeper into a good save. Youngest is left footed, he took a corner with his right today. It's having some impact with them."
Will
"I have to be honest, the test after the module was hard and made me think!"
