Believe in the Season
Being a veteran of the United States Air Force, I believe in the "CONCEPT" that opportunity presents everyone. I have many success stories over my 20+ years of experience in coaching. I can always tell people abroad one thing stands true, I stand true by the personnel I teach, I inspire, and I help assist with creating true champions of our future. Through Christ in faith, mental discipline, and the ability to want to be the best. All things shall prosper. I also have insightful knowledge of the referee standards, policies, and procedures being I had over 15 plus years of experience. Earning the players respect is key for development growth. I want all parties to understand working out with me. I have the best interest of my client.

How I can help you improve your game:
I often times come to games see the progression and critique for next sessions, I run analysis and progression charts, so that parents can see where areas for improvement needs to be made or consider next steps for advancement. Succession planning ex: does athlete need more time in the gym, do they need more education on the knowledge of the game, etc.

Career summary and accomplishments:
Youth Alliance President (Ymca) over 20+ years. Sports ranged from flag football, football, basketball, and soccer. Been awarded multiple championships in youth sports as a Basketball and Football coach. Develop youth players that have went on to play at Division I, II, III colleges. Age range from K-12. I also specialize in coaching new development for athletes who have never play a sport before.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was myself. Through hard work, dedication, and determination anything is possible. I tell my players, parents, and staff all the time. You can trick the mind, but you cannot trick the heart. Practice every day how you will perform when it really matters. Live in the moment and don't let the moment live you. My advice to anyone that is listening, is simple, preparation to be the best at a particular is sport is doing the right things when no one is looking and taking self-accountability for your energy and effort to the game.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Yes, we get compensated for a service but, as a private coach, a mentor, a motivator my joy comes as being a servant to our heavenly father and seeing children have a chance at given something back to society (their talents to display to the world). Not only as a coach, I, mentally considered myself family.

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. 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!
