Testimonials
“Playing for Berkshire Ajax is what really prepared me to play at the college level in a highly-competitive conference. The level of play was challenging and Coach Russo helped sharpen my technique and skills as a player.”
“Our three sons all enjoyed playing on various Ajax teams over the past eleven years. The training and competition helped them to improve as players. The coaches always have kept the teams focused on sportsmanship, teamwork and having fun.”

“As the father of an Ajax player over the past 4 years, I am a huge fan of the program. The amazing coaching staff creates a fun environment with a focus on competitiveness and excellence. I love that their philosophy embraces kids with a wide range of abilities who are encouraged to improve their skills while learning teamwork, demonstrating good sportsmanship and just doing their best are qualities just as important as winning. ”
