From the Backyard
to Elite Academies.
TM17pro was born from our journey raising four soccer-loving kids across two continents — and our mission to help families navigate youth soccer with confidence, clarity, and purpose.
We’ve lived it all — from backyard games to elite academies, scholarships, injuries, and even professional contracts. As parents, we’ve cheered until we were hoarse, paced hospital hallways, and asked ourselves more than once if we were doing the right thing.
Our children have played in schoolyards, club teams, and regional leagues in Germany and in the UPSL here in the US. Through it all, one thing became clear: families need honest guidance — not guesswork — when navigating youth development in soccer. That’s why we started TM17pro.
When we moved to Charleston, we didn’t just find a great city — we found our community. We’re proud members of Seacoast Church, and that sense of belonging and shared values is part of everything we do at TM17pro.
“With strong roots in both the US and German soccer systems, we’re here to be the guide we once wished we had. Whether your child dreams of playing in Europe or just wants to become their best — we offer trusted advice, personalized programs, and a clear path forward.”
— Mirko & Marion Dieseler
Coach, Scout & Connector.
Mirko brings hands-on coaching experience and a sharp eye for identifying potential at every level. With years spent on the ground in both Germany and the US, he’s built an international network of coaches, scouts, and mentors who believe in development — not shortcuts.
As a coach, Mirko’s philosophy is direct and honest — the German way. He tells players what they need to hear, not what’s comfortable. And it works. He has helped countless young athletes find the right path, in soccer and in life.
The Lowcountry is Our Home.
We chose Charleston, SC as our base because it’s more than a great city to live in — it has a vibrant, growing youth soccer scene. We’re part of this community, and we’re committed to it for the long term.
Charleston’s energy, community, and love of sport make it the perfect home for TM17pro’s US operations. We live here, we’re members of Seacoast Church, and our address is 1235 Ashley Garden Blvd — we’re your neighbors.
SC Surf, Charleston United, James Island Youth SC, NOSA FC, and the Charleston Battery. The Lowcountry has serious soccer talent — and we’re here to develop it.
From Charleston, we connect players to our Hamburg and RC Lens programs — genuine European pathways for players who are ready to take the next step.
Development, Not Shortcuts.
We scout talented players and connect them with top-tier training opportunities in Germany and beyond. Through our trusted network in both countries, we help young athletes develop their skills, showcase their talent, and chase their dreams.
We’re not just soccer parents — we’re connectors, mentors, and fierce believers in every athlete’s potential. From years spent on the ground in both Germany and the US, we’ve built an international network of coaches, scouts, and mentors who believe in development — not shortcuts. Our mission: to help young athletes grow into confident, capable people — on the field and in life.
