Signature Speaking Topics

Four talks. One mission: shape the kind of human the game deserves.

From the Field

What schools, clubs, and coaches say.

"My third grader hasn't stopped talking about Vinny's visit. We sold every copy of the book in the school store the same day."

— Principal Maya Adams, PS 137 Brooklyn

"Twenty parents in the room. Twenty parents quieter on the sideline next Saturday. Best money our club has ever spent."

— Coach Tom DeLuca, Highland FC

"Vinny doesn't talk at you. He talks with you. By the end of the clinic, I had a list of things I needed to stop doing immediately."

— Coach Renata Silva, U-12 Boys
