How I can help you improve your game:
I think the game is 90% mental. Physically they may be gifted already. So my method of improving is rewiring their minds first. Building confidence and then moving on from there.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
First for me to learn the client it would start with a simple dynamic warm up to see him move around with basic instruction. Also getting him ready for the coming up work. Then moving on to some agility work, now I’m watching his hips, ankles, and feet. Just seeing what he’s good at what he isn’t (because this will tell me what we need to work on). Next would be just some WR drills, this would involve more cones instead of a speed ladder. Then last to end the workout is conditioning. This is the most important because we have to be able to stay on the field at all times as a football player. The drives can be long so being in shape and fit is priority.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Going on my fourth year of coaching kids/teens. Coached football and soccer camps during my off-seasons when I am home. Ranging bf room ages 6-18 years old.
Best coach I ever had:
I had a lot of great coaches in my years of playing football. But my best coach came from AAU basketball Mr. Norwood. Before football became my calling basketball was my number one sport. He taught me what it meant to be a leader in my own way. To value doing the little things. Staying after practice working on my game. Once I made the move to football, I kept all the same values.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I would want them to know that I am simply here to help. God has placed us here to do good work on Earth and we all have a part to play. My part is to pass my knowledge of the game I love to the next generation. Life will move on and your son will move on to another trainer someday. But he will remember Mr. Dukes for the rest of his life.

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!
