Book Lessons with Coach Connor
College football coach & scout helping athletes train with purpose.
As a college football coach, former player, and Oregon football scout, I bring a unique perspective to private training because I know what athletes need to develop and what coaches are actually looking for. My sessions are built around real football development: position-specific technique, footwork, hand usage, toughness, confidence, and football IQ. I want every athlete I train to leave with a better understanding of the game, better habits, and a clear path to improvement. My goal is not just to run players through drills, but to help them become smarter, tougher, and more prepared football players.

About Me:
I am a college football coach, former player, and Oregon high school football scout with a passion for helping athletes develop the right way. I believe training should be detailed, intentional, and built around real football skills that translate to game day.
How I can help you improve your game:
I tailor training to each athlete’s goals, position, and current stage of development. If you need to get bigger and stronger, we will build a plan around that. If you need to become more athletic, improve your movement, or get in better shape, we will attack those areas with purpose. My goal is to help athletes improve their technique, footwork, football IQ, confidence, and overall understanding of the game while building habits that translate to real football.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical session will be built around the athlete’s specific goals and position needs. We may focus on position-specific fundamentals, footwork, hand placement, strength and power development, conditioning, movement skills, or drills that connect directly to real football situations. Every session will be organized, high-energy, and purposeful, with clear coaching points athletes can take back to their team.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I have experience as a college football coach, a high school football coach, a former player, and an Oregon football scout, covering athletes across the state. Through coaching and scouting, I have worked with athletes at different stages of development and have built a strong understanding of what coaches look for at the next level.
Best coach I ever had:
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I care about developing athletes as people, not just players. I want every athlete I train to feel coached, challenged, encouraged, and supported while building habits that help them succeed on and off the field.

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.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.

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 college and pro 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. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process + background check, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
