More About Coach Antone

I currently coach Boys Varsity Football (14 years), Girls Flag Football (12 years), and Boys Varsity Basketball (14 years). I have been the head coach for all 3 teams for the same amount of years. When it comes to football, I have learned to coach every single position through out the years, but I excel at training Quarterbacks and Receivers. All of my current coaching is done on the high school level, in high schools in the Bronx, NY. I have trained athletes in a variety of different sports in the NYC and North Bergen NJ area. I have worked with coachup in the pass and the typical age that I have worked with was 6-21 years of age. I had a great experience with working with coachup and I was able to send coachup some clients in the past. I presently work as a physical education teacher, so my day is always filled with coaching, training and teaching students. I currently work with 12-20 year-olds.

In high school I was on the football, basketball and track team. I have received All-City honors as a High School Football player and discus thrower. I lead my high school in pass receptions and yards gained. I started on NYC first all-star football team. I became a division 1 prospect for football. I was recruited by most schools in the Big East Conference. I received a football scholarship to Norfolk State University, which is division 1. In the month of May of this year I received the Coach of the year from the NY Jets football team. The NY Jets recognized me as a coach that has been giving back to his community and all of my accomplishments with my team on and off the field. Also, the public school athletic league gave me and my football team a coaches award for great conduct during the season.

Before the athlete goes through his or her warm-up, I would ask some questions first. My first question would be how they are doing. I would wait for a response to get the fell of how the athlete is doing, keeping in mind any barriers that may hinder the session. I would also ask if they ate and ask what foods did they eat. I would make sure that the athlete is properly hydrated. I would make sure I know what the athlete wants to accomplish and we would set a goal for the session. After, the athlete will warm-up by jogging and doing different types of moments that mimics the sport that he or she is about to perform. We will go through a series of dynamic stretches that also mimics the sport. Over-all the whole body will be stretched and warmed-up. The athlete will then start doing sprints at about 60% speed. Soon after the athlete will progress to 100%. We would then preform fundamental movements based on the athletes goals and position. Working with a wide receiver, I would use cones to work on footwork drills to make sure the receiver has proper cutting ability. We would also do different type of hand drills to make sure he or she is catching the ball properly. All sessions would end in cool down.

great basketball trainer. patient and knowledgeable

Very happy with our initial lesson with Coach Antone. He really took the time to learn about my daughter and identify her strengths and weaknesses. She loved the drills he chose for her, and felt like she already learned a lot in session 1!
He has a very patient and kind demeanor and my daughter felt very comfortable with him. Looking forward to the next session!

He is a very smart coach and is very good on working on your weaknesses to make them strengths

Coach was there on time, awaiting us. He is friendly, kind and highly attentionnate. Knows a lot about football and teenagers. My son has slight special needs, with low muscle tone, and coach was able to address his abilities without making him feel bad about his challenges. My son wants to continue with coach Antone!

We booked the Jugg throwing machine for my 8 year old son to improve his catching and in just 1 session his catching improved greatly! We got well over 200 catches within the hour and my son did great during his tryouts for Travel Flag Football. My son left the session feeling confident and incredible. I 100 percent recommend Coach Mayweather. He was great to work with, responsive and positive. Cannot wait to book our next session soon! Thank you so much Coach!!

excellent coach great with my son
professional and easy to work with
strongly recommend

Very good information, funny and nice

Coach Antone is great! He made the training fun and my son quickly made small changes that helped improve his skills. The best part was that my 9 year old enjoyed the training and gained confidence!

Phenomenal coach! Took to time to evaluate our son and provide specific details on what he needs to work on. We look forward to continuing to work with Coach Antone

Antone is a great coach. With the few sessions we had gave Evan good techniques to follow thru in varsity football games. End result Evan made second team all league WR

Amazing! So kind and professional and patient!!
Helped my son learn new techniques to become a better player on his home team! Very excited to keep working with him

Coach Mayweather has been an inspiration to my son and he has helped him grow the confidence in play sports overall Thank you coach
