I played Division 1 lacrosse at Monmouth University. I was a 5-year starter where I helped lead my team to two MAAC Championships. I hold the record for most ground balls in Monmouth history, along with being top three in most caused turn overs in Monmouth history. I’ve also won several awards while at Monmouth. I specialize in coaching LSM and Defensive players. My goal is to prepare my players for the next level by teaching skills and techniques I have learned over the years. Young players want to train with me to learn techniques that their average coach will not teach. For example, take-away checks, ground ball techniques, shooting and body positioning/foot work.

Yet I have only had the coaching title a few times in my life, I believe the best coaching background I have was being part of the Monmouth Lacrosse team. Every practice and every game I was coaching my defense to perform at a high level. Communicating what needed to be done to come out on top. In my opinion, I was a coach everyday I stepped onto the field.
My best coach I’ve ever had was Coach Hartney. He was my defensive high school coach. He made coming to practice every day just really fun.
I was born and raised outside Philadelphia. I was an ocean lifeguard for 4 years in North Wildwood. I am currently a Manasquan Police Officer. I can meet at your convenience!

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 find yourself needing to cancel or adjust your booking within 24 hours of your purchase, just let us know. We'll provide a refund - no questions asked. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to support your learning journey.
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.
