More About Coach Paul

15years coaching experience currently working at the international, high performance and elite levels of the game. Currently working full time at the professional level with NWSL side Sky Blue FC as their Assistant Coach. Previously coached professionally in Scotland, Sweden and New Zealand. During my time in NZ I was National Talent Centre Head Coach/Director working with national team prospects at youth level both male and female. Have worked at the professional academy level in Scotland with Heart of Midlothian Football. Children's A'Licence Holder, Youth B'Licence Holder and UEFA B'Licence Holder.

Played semi-professional football in Scotland for 8years.
Coached 2 sides in NZ. Capital Football to the NZ National Women's League play-offs 2years in a row with the youngest side in the competition history.
Most recently coached Northern Football to the NZ National Women's League title in 2015 as the youngest coach in NZ history to win a National League title either male or female.
Children's A'Licence Holder, Youth B'Licence Holder and UEFA B'Licence Holder.

My coaching philosophy is to empower the player to be the best version of themselves. Players will be challenged to push themselves to the next level across the 4 corners of athlete development (technically, tactically, mentally and physically.)
Sessions will be very technical in nature with video analysis and game breakdown key. Players will be asked to view video of themselves and of international and professional players and compare to see what it takes to be the best they can be.
Sessions can be tailored to work on, but are not limited to the following aspects of the game and individual development:
Technical: Receiving & Turning, Pro-Active Passing, Pro-Active Defending, Finishing
Tactical: Vision & Awareness, Game Understanding, Transition
Mental: Decision Making, Communication, Dealing with Pressure
Physical: Injury Prevention, Speed, Agility and Quickness(SAQ), Strength and Football Conditioning.

Wow! An Amazing Coach that truly cares about Helping you reach your goals. My son has really connected with Coach Paul - He quickly assesses a players skillset and then tailors training to maximize player improvement. The drills are laser focused/ player specific to address exactly where you need the most help. He also takes the time to provide specific individualized feedback/ homework afterwards so as a player you can continue to grow between sessions- to optimum effect. As a parent, I am amazed that in only a few sessions, I can see my 15 year old son's confidence increase, his game play, strategy/ awareness and decision making skills improve and he is eager to learn more- He is especially excited to have a professional player and coach take such an interest in him. I am certain my son has found the perfect coach to help him be the best he can be!

My son was very pleased with the comprehensiveness and direction of the coaching session. He connected well with Coach Paul and is looking forward to additional sessions in the next couple of weeks

I've been working with Coach Paul for a good amount of time now, and he's a great coach. He really knows his stuff and is super encouraging. Paul puts in the extra effort to get to know you as a player and a person, so he can adapt his coaching program to your specific needs. He also builds on drills over the sessions, which I like because you keep working on a certain skill set but it's not too repetitive. Also, Paul always keeps the basics in mind, like your first touch and checking your shoulder. One of my favorite things about my sessions with Coach Paul are the variety of things we do. The drills vary from speed and agility to one touch passing to shooting, while still focusing on what you want to work on. Overall, I would definitely recommend Coach Paul. He's a terrific coach and great person who genuinely cares.

Coach Paul is a former professional athlete and current distinguished professional coach with a unique holistic approach to individualized training that fully integrates physical conditioning, ball skills, body control/positioning, situational awareness, and game strategies. His training techniques are advanced, stressing, and extremely effective. Highly recommended for serious soccer players committed to collegiate level and beyond.
