More About Coach J.J.

I specialize in coaching Quarterbacks spanning ages from youth football to collegiate athletes. After playing QB throughout my college, professional and now semi-professional career, I bring an enthusiasm, knowledge, and perspective of the game that is unique.

I played QB at Southern Arkansas University where I still hold a passing record or two after many years from graduation. I played professionally in Europe and Asia. I currently play in the National Public Safety Football League (NPSFL) which is comprised of 25 law enforcement teams throughout the country. These teams have former college and professional players. I have taken my knowledge and experience from my years of playing QB into this league and I have helped lead our team to 2 National Championship seasons. I bring the same up-tempo attitude, hustle, and passion of playing and I translate it into my coaching style.

My 50 minute sessions focus heavily on foot work, balance, and throwing motion. All my drills are QB centric. Meaning there is no wasted time. Every stretch, drill, throw, or discussion is focused solely to make my client a better quarterback. I utilize every second of the 50 minute session to increase, challenge, and improve QB movements, flexibilities, and mind set.

Client Reviews

The Coach was Awesome! My son had so much fun, he didn't even want to take a water break! He did drills and technique enhancements with him and told us that he already shows improvement in just one session. His personality is extremely encouraging with my son and you can tell that he enjoys what he is doing. Highly recommended.

My son had one session on Sunday and he was happy. I haven’t had a chance to meet the coach in person. I am going to meet him this weekend. I will leave another review later.

JJ was great! He showed up on time ready to go. There was no wasted time during our session. He balanced the positive comments and the coaching instruction perfectly. His knowledge of the game and the position was obvious in the conversation and the detailed instructions he was providing. After the first session we can already see a difference in how Cade is throwing the ball.

My son is 12 and did his first lesson with Coach J.J. and had only positive things to say. JJ was on time, ready to go, and was very engaged and energetic. Besides working technical skills and helping to create solid QB fundamental for my boy, he was very encouraging throughout the session My son enjoyed the practice and learned a lot, and we have signed on for additional lessons.

We came to California looking for a quarterback coach to improve my son's skills and Coach J.J.C has been top notch. Very knowledgeable, very thorough, and very patient. The week isn't over yet and already my son looks like a different player with a new set of skills.

I’ve been a coach with CoachUp for over three years now, and it’s my pleasure to welcome Coach JJ to the CU family and highly recommend him for your football needs! I’ve come to know JJ through our association with the San Diego Enforcers of the National Public Safety Football League (NPSFL) – JJ was the long time starting QB, and I was a position coach on the staff. JJ, simply put, is a champion! With his leadership, toughness, skill and football IQ, he led our team to multiple championship victories. His experience, attention to detail and demeanor make him supremely qualified to coach you or your athlete up – way up! Coach JJ’s understanding of proper throwing mechanics, how to analyze film, how to read defenses, and how to maintain shoulder strength and health will provide you with the edge you need to compete at a much higher level.
I’ve known JJ Carrell for eight years both professionally and personally. More important than that, I’ve had the pleasure of knowing him as a teammate with the San Diego Enforcers. I’ve played football for more than 22 years, through the collegiate level and back down, and I have testified publicly that he is the most competitive person I have ever met. That competitiveness is the driving force behind not only his palpable leadership ability, but his knowledge for the game as well. JJ never hesitates to explain to his players not only the concepts for a game any given week, but why what he says matters. How a slot-back’s landmark on a skinny post must be the goal post in order to split the safeties in cover two; or how the running back needs to recognize that that shifting single high safety probably means his buddy collapsed to cover for a blitzing linebacker. I don’t envy our wideouts who will be tattooed with the ball in their numbers if they’re not looking for it at 17 yards while working their way back to 15 on a comeback route. And I certainly will never again fail to find the first down marker on a 12-back-to-10 yard curl ever again… he’s made sure of that. JJ’s biggest strengths are his passion and relentlessness: They fuels his leadership that is noticeable when he’s present and even more so when he’s not. They drive the team to log as many fundamentally sound reps as possible both in practice and in games. They make him both the Bill Belichick and Andrew Luck of our league—i.e. the guys who’ve got the opponent beat before the game’s even started. I am confident that no one in our league of public safety professionals puts in more film study, especially in the off-season, than JJ. Having him is a blessing because the best players and coaches make the people around them better, such as JJ does. Sincerely, Jahir Waterman
My son had played a few seasons of Friday Night Lights and was showing real interest in improving his QB skills. I heard through mutual friends that J.J. was offering personal coaching sessions and thought it would be a great opportunity to get my son exposure to the fundamentals of what it takes to become a quality quarterback. I was thoroughly impressed with the professionalism, intensity, and knowledge we received while working with J.J. It has made a huge difference in my son's confidence and performance on the field. I would highly recommend J.J. to anyone that is looking to take their quarterback skills to the next level.
Coach J.J. is a seasoned pro that has the ability to relate and develop QB's of any level. His fundamentals based approach builds a foundation that young QB's can take with them to the next level. He has a great ability to communicate and connect with his students and make them better almost immediately. My son was new to the position and you would think he has played the position for years after working with Coach J.J. only a few times. I would recommend Coach J.J. to players of any level wanting to improve their game.
