BWright Educational Consultants making champions 4Life
I am a former DI college athlete inducted into the Sports Hall of Fame with over 30 years of experience in athletics as a player, coach and administrator. I have individually trained athletes as well as teams. Some of my players and clients have gone on to also play in college or are coaching at different levels. I believe in training the whole person physical, mental and emotional. I want to help athletes take control of their own learning and growth and give homework for them to support their individual training. I will also help and support them to be advocates for self-development, self-improvement and self-care.

About Me:
I’m a wife, mother, and educator that has been in education 26 years. I love sports and my favorite is volleyball. I’ve now had the opportunity to fulfill roles as an athlete, coach, parent and athletic director. These roles have given me experience and expertise on many platforms.
How I can help you improve your game:
I understand the fundamentals and skills needed in volleyball, basketball, soccer and having a positive mindset. I ask questions, give honest feedback and homework for personal discipline. I believe accountability and ownership of self is the key to becoming a champion 4Life. We all should be learning and growing.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Training is based on level, goals and personal outcomes. We will talk player and coach, team and coach before and during different developmental repetitions. We will create an open atmosphere to be honest, vulnerable, take risk and mature with individual and team concepts. The player is the main focus and meeting their needs, wants and desires to build confidence. At the end each player and coach will debrief with their parent/guardian.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Varsity and assistant coach at middle and high school with several championship teams in volleyball, basketball and soccer. Coached club volleyball teams 15’s and 16’s in three different cities within a 10 year period, also a volunteer coach for YMCA (8 year olds). College assistant coach for Division 1-AA schools. Played college level volleyball and helped in winning a conference championship, conference honors, MVP and inducted into Hall of Fame. I was a multi-sport athlete in high school and middle school.
Best coach I ever had:
All of my coaches were the best at something from middle school through college they each were significant for my growth and maturity.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I believe in making players more confident and better than they were before our time together. I love sports and want everyone interested to be physically active. I want you to never get tired of learning about and growing more in the sport you are interested. I want players to think, be strategic, work hard and get better. I expect for players to put in time outside of training at least 15 minutes on their own daily.

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 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. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, 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!
