Tom Sermanni

"I would like to take the opportunity to endorse the practices created by Lee and his staff at The Houston Bluebonnets. This technically based individual long term development curriculum challenges players in a positive setting and inspires them to improve on the field and grow as individuals off the field.
The holistic approach and attention to detail by the staff creates a wonderful learning environment, which will see athletes improve significantly. I would highly recommend the Bluebonnets to any aspiring soccer player, there is an even greater pathway to help become a professional athlete in the future."
Sam Laity
ANGEL CITY FC Head Coach
"Having known Lee professionally and personally for several years I have noticed that his philosophies and attention to detail are only equal to his passion for truly developing players in an environment that is definitively based around the internal and external needs of the specific player. These pieces, the ideology and positive learning environment set the Bluebonnets apart from other player development programs. I am happy to recommend the Houston Bluebonnets"

“Lee’s attention to detail and understanding of leadership and culture are elite. He is honest, thoughtful, and builds environments that demand excellence while always prioritizing the individual. What stands out most is his ability to create a clear standard — players know what is expected, and more importantly, they understand why it matters.
His leadership extends beyond the field as well. He connects with players, families, and staff in a way that builds trust and belief, creating a culture where people want to be part of something bigger. It’s not just about developing better players — it’s about developing better people within a strong, honest, and demanding environment.”
