Patrick Daugherty

10+ years coaching track and field with a focus in sprints, sprint relays, and long jump. I have coached numerous All-state level kids and who have gone on to run at all levels of collegiate track and field. I coach for a program that is consistently in the top 5 of Ohio with consistent representation in the sprints at the state level. I come from a science background which helps with understanding the physics and kinesthetic involved with being fast. I can help you with your blocks, block starts, the different phases of acceleration, or all four phases of your long jump (approach, takeoff, in-air-action, and landing). I help make kids faster all spring for an elite high school program. I'm ready to branch out and help others now.

I was an above average track athlete and had an opportunity to run at the collegiate level but chose to continue wearing cleats and a helmet in college. I won some awards here and there, but at the end of the day, my accomplishments don't mean anything to the progress and development of your child.

I do not overload an athlete with volume. Every drill we do has a purpose in developing speed in an athlete. You can't train a race horse the same way you train a work horse. I can offer track sprinting lessons and long jump lessons at multiple levels, from beginner to advanced. I will use video feedback to identify strong points and learning points in a rep and use that video to teach the athlete and monitor progress. I also utilize a lazer timing system that can monitor an athletes speed, again for feedback and data analysis purposes.
