My Coaching Experience has varied since starting at 17 Years old. I am from Scotland, and played for the Youth Academy and Reserve Team for Ayr United Football Club in the 1st Division in Scotland. Through training full time with the club i worked towards my SFA 1 and 2. Which allows me to coach both 7v7 and 11v11 teams and ages. I have worked at High School Level in California and also currently working with LA Galaxy where i will be continuing my coaching Badges and giving my clients more vital information to get them to the next level. Whatever that may be!

My session plan varies on who my client is, ill figure out what level your at through starting with some basic fundamental drills in our first session together. I.e can we turn of our back foot and move into a positive space away from any oncoming player, or do we have the ability to use our peripherals and work on our passing range to find players on the field quicker through drills devised specifically for you. Once we figure these things out, ill make sure to stay on top of your strength and conditiong for soccer and keep a weekly/monthly update progress chart for you to view and get you to where you want to be. End of the day, ill watch you play for your club teams/college and analyze how you play and what we can improve on together as a team.
