I have played the sport of lacrosse for my entire life. The sport itself is always evolving except for one thing, FUNDAMENTALS. People now a-days are trying to hard to do steps 3 and 4 before they master 1 and 2. I believe that strong fundamentals will make a player great, and that is exactly what I will teach.

I have played lacrosse for 12 years in total. I have played for clubs like No Excuse and Fine Tune, in my younger days. In High School I was a 4 year starter at Summit. I also played in the Middle Tennessee box lacrosse league where I was the MVP. I know the ins and the outs of this sport and I can’t wait to share my knowledge.
Growing up all I was taught to work on was my fundamentals. The style of play that I play the game at would not be possible without my core fundamentals. I will teach what is needed to be the best. A strong base will make any player great. After a strong base is made we will go to the next steps.
Now that just depends on the players I’m am working with
I have been a coach in a sense my whole life. I’m the oldest child. I’ve taught my little brothers and sister all the lessons that I had to learn the hard way. As far as coaching goes, I coached for my local middle school wrestling team, as well as the lacrosse team.
The best coach I ever had was my high school wrestling coach Pete Miller. He did not just teach me how to wrestle, he taught me how to be a man. He taught me skills that will last me a life time. He wasn’t just a coach, he was someone who wanted to see you do better than he ever did. He wasn’t there to make you a great wrestler. He was there to make you a great person. So many struggles that I have delt with in my life have been resolved with the life lessons he taught me.
I currently attend the University of Tennessee Chattanooga where I am studying marketing. I play for the lacrosse team here. I am also in the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity.

Book and schedule your lessons through our platform.
Meet your coach in-person or virtually, and start chasing down your goals!
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
