I create an environment that encourages our players to play with passion and intelligence. By breaking bad habits, implementing proper technique and instilling the importance of work ethic, discipline, commitment and a desire to grow, trained players are transformed into confident, skilled leaders on and off the field. My sessions are designed for each player/group according to their skill level and ability. The primary focus is technical development, while fostering a professional environment. I will work with each player to enhance their strengths, build on weaknesses, and increase their ability and confidence on the ball. My training will improve players ability to solve problems on the field by use of perception, thinking, creativity, learning, attention and memory.
