I have spent a lifetime in soccer on three continents in every capacity, from a junior player, a professional player, a FIFA Agent, a talent scout and as a coach. My coaching philosophy is founded upon knowing who I am coaching to and constantly challenging myself to bring out the best qualities and talents of players I am coaching and inspiring them in the process.

Firstly by getting to know the player's existing level of development and current capabilities and identifying what areas need addressing, developing and cultivating. Every player is at a different stage of technical, tactical and even physical growth, so it is very important to use that as a template for creating a training plan that will maximize the potential and improvement of a player. Furthermore, soccer is a cerebral game as much as it is physical, and educating players and making them smarter decision makers on the field is just as important as physical technical coaching.
There is no typical training session for me as a coach. This is because I tailor every session to the player or team I am coaching, and will factor in what the needs are of these players, and what their capabilities are and what the objectives we need to achieve are, and build around that.

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.
