Soccer Locker Review: SKLZ


Brian Farber is a top professional soccer player, one of the best trainers of youth soccer players and an inventive designer of products that help players develop their skills.

While there is a moratorium on soccer practices, trainings, and games because of the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic, SoccerToday’s Soccer Locker Review wanted to review products that could specifically help players train on their own or with their family. While SKLZ’s Quickster Soccer Trainer is a great product to have every day of the year, it is particularly useful now that players have to train on their own.

Here is our product review plus a bit of the important back story on the product designer. If a reader is interested in purchasing a Quickster Soccer Trainer, please email us for a really great special discount code!

Brian Farber is a professional soccer player who played in the MLS for the Portland Timbers and currently is a star on the San Diego Sockers, and just finished his tenth season as a top goal scoring midfielder.

In 215 career games so far, Farber has totaled 223 goals and 122 assists, earning four first-team honors and one MVP.

With a lifelong passion for soccer, Farber has channeled his knowledge of the game into designing soccer-specific products for SKLZ, an industry-leader of athletic training gear and sports performance products.

It is quite simple. As the head of the global soccer line for SKLZ, Farber has created tools to help players become better. As a professional player with a highly respected track record, Farber knows what helps players advance to the next level.

“I absolutely love what I do,” said Farber. “I work with an amazing group of people at SKLZ and as a team, we all try to bring my crazy ideas around soccer training to life. We have a full design and engineering team that really do make the best soccer training products in the world.”

One of his favorite products is the Quickster Soccer Trainer which is more than a rebounder … it is designed to improve a soccer player’s performance on passing, receiving, and settling the ball. Check out Farber’s Instagram for videos on different ways to use the SKLZ trainer and follow @SKLZ.

According to Farber, these are the reasons the Quickster Soccer Trainer works so well to help improve a soccer players touch on the ball:

  • With the wave side, you can improve the first touch by settling the ball out of the air with feet, thigh, and chest.
  • Also on the wave side, master volleys and half volleys and improve technique by getting in a rhythm and hit volley after volley until you make a mistake.

  • Passing and receiving the ball using the lower ground net is designed to help the soccer player develop good habits of seeing the field before receiving the ball. Passing the ball back on the ground and under control using this side makes sure the player can work on lifting their head and checking their shoulder. This lower net improves a player’s field awareness quickly.

Farber created the Quickster Soccer Trainer’s patented design to provide youth and adult players with a highly responsive and easy to use tool that was lightweight, easy to set up and store and provided professional proven results. true-roll action gives players the reps they need to master their first and second touches.

The large sided net measures 6’x4’ and the small sided net measures 6’x20” and stores easily.
