Football Coach to all
Football Coach to all
I will be honest with each player, and strive to guide you to achieve your goals and desires. I am always willing to help out, and my training sessions can be adjusted if need. I can coach any position on the field, I am not afraid to admit if I am wrong, or if I don’t know the answer. If I give you the tools to succeed and you fail to use them it’s on you, if you use my tools and they fail you, that’s on me and I failed you. Therefore I like to win, and I don’t want to fail. I will work hard everyday so you can achieve goals set.

Get to know Coach David
About Me:
Have current secondary teaching license. I have worked in medical field and legal field. State football high school champion and runner up another year. Team captain and leader during senior year of high school. Part of the very first team at Southern Virginia University. Also participated on high school track team, where I qualified for state in my event 4 years in row.
How I can help you improve your game:
My philosophy is if you do something do it correctly and always strive to improve each day. Therefore preparing players to know what the game is, why you do something, and the proper way to do it. They need mental repetition in addition to physical repetition. I coach like I teach, I focus on fundamentals each and every single day, I then build from that. I evaluate strengths and weaknesses of each player. I am very very detailed oriented person. I strive for excellence in everything.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
I cater to the needs of each player. I focus on fundamental skills required each and every day. I do emphasize running drills especially footwork. There is nothing more important than footwork. I focus on little details that can be overlooked. I film training session, and at times would watch film on players doing the same skill set. If there is a nutritionist involved then I follow the guidance of the specialist. I can do virtual and on field training, I can do more than one person or individual training. I set goals for each player and show how to reach those goals. There is no sense in making a player cater to certain skills, therefore evaluation of each player and what will be done. Sessions will be set as time and organized. Some days may be more physical training others be more metal training. I could have a mix of both. However this discussion done once a training agreement has been established and I have been able to evaluate the player.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
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.
How do I book lessons?
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.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
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!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
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.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
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.
When is the coach available to train?
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.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
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.
Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
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.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship.
