Developing faster, more explosive, more confident athletes. Its time to level up
Hi, I’m Jager, a former collegiate wide receiver and athletic performance coach specializing in speed, agility, athletic development, and wide receiver training. As a four-year starting receiver at the University of Wisconsin–River Falls, I experienced firsthand what it takes to compete and develop at a high level. I have also had the opportunity to train and work with athletes at the Division I and NFL levels, giving me experience working alongside high-level performers and training environments. My goal as a coach is to give athletes individualized training that helps them become faster, more explosive, more skilled, and more confident in their sport. Whether an athlete is looking to improve their overall athleticism, develop position-specific skills, or take the next step in their athletic journey, I’m committed to helping them reach their full potential.
How I can help you improve
I’ll help improve your game by creating training that is personalized to your goals, current ability, and the specific demands of your sport. My focus is on helping athletes become faster, more explosive, more agile, and more confident in their abilities.
For wide receivers, I can also provide position-specific training, such as releases, route running, catching, and understanding how to create separation. Throughout the process, I’ll focus on proper technique, measurable progress, and building the habits and confidence needed to perform at a higher level.
A typical training session
Every session is structured around the athlete’s goals and begins with a dynamic warm-up and movement preparation to get the body ready to perform. From there, we’ll work through speed, agility, strength, explosiveness, or sport-specific skills depending on the athlete’s needs.
For wide receivers a session may include specific wide receiver drills, route running, releases, catching, and game-specific movements. I also incorporate measurable testing and feedback when appropriate so athletes can see their progress over time.
I want every session to have a purpose. Athletes should leave each workout knowing what they improved, what they need to continue working on, and how the training is helping them become a better overall athlete.

What athletes & parents should know
Parents and athletes should know that I genuinely care about the development of every athlete I work with. I believe great coaching is about more than just getting through a workout, it’s about building confidence, discipline, consistency, and a mindset that carries over into competition and everyday life.
As a former collegiate athlete and coach, I understand the commitment it takes to improve and compete at a high level. I’ve trained athletes ranging from youth players to Division I and NFL athletes, and I bring that same level of attention and effort to every athlete I coach.
I’m demanding when it comes to effort and attention to detail, but I also want training to be challenging, positive, and enjoyable. My goal is to help each athlete become the best version of themselves while giving them the tools and confidence to continue improving.

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!
