More About Coach Artie

I have coached at the highest levels of football. This includes being the Defensive Coordinator and Linebacker Coach at CAL and USC, as well as the Special Teams and Linebackers Coach with the Raiders and Rams in the NFL.

Since retiring I have managed and directed instructional football camps around the country, as well as serving a lecturer and a guest coach at numerous additional nationally know camps. I am extremely qualified and experienced in creating an instructional program for players of all ages as well as evaluating their progress during the season and off season.

I am available for Individual, Group or Entire Defensive Team Sessions.

Client Reviews

My son Nico is in his 2nd year HS football player and needed some specialized coaching to improve his skills as a punter and safety. After reviewing several coaches in CU, we decided to go with coach Artie. Coach Artie was everything we expected. His one-on-one instructional teaching was what my son needed. My son said "Coach Artie took the time in identifying the problem, explain how to improve, and provide drills to reinforce his teaching!" As a parent, I find that Coach Artie is very passionate working with young teenager. Importantly, Coach Artie helped educate me as a parent to learn more on how to prepare my son for HS varsity football as well as playing for colleges. We are very happy with Coach Artie and look forward to many more sessions with him.

Working with Coach Artie has been great. I can already see Chris's confidence growing. Coaches experience and his ability to keep his student focused is tremendous.

Coach Artie did a great job with my son Colin. His techniques were conveyed in a way that a 15 year old could understand. Coach does a great job with positive feedback and emphasis on continuing to practice. we look forward to continuing to work with Coach Artie on a regular basis.
