Who we are

Welcome to Elite Touch Academy – Kamloops’ home for passionate, high-level soccer development. In a city where hockey has long taken center stage, ETA is proudly elevating the soccer scene in the Interior of BC. We’re more than just coaches; we’re a committed community of former professionals, mentors, and lifelong players who believe in the artistry, intelligence, and global spirit of the beautiful game.

Founded on the belief that Kamloops is bursting with untapped athletic potential, our mission is to uncover and develop that talent through elite training and expert guidance. Led by Daniel Sagno, a seasoned soccer professional whose career spans top-level programs across North America and internationally. Having played for the Vancouver Whitecaps Academy, San Diego State University, TRU Wolfpack, Team Canada, and Australia’s Glenorchy Knights, Daniel brings a wealth of knowledge and a global perspective to player development. His mission is to guide young athletes with the same passion, discipline, and high-performance standards that shaped his own journey.

At ETA, we don’t just teach soccer — we unlock potential. We challenge young athletes to grow in skill, confidence, and mindset, nurturing the drive and discipline that translate to success both on and off the field. Come be part of the movement transforming Kamloops soccer, one player at a time.
