Hi, my name is Trent Karlik, and I'm currently a junior at MSU Denver studying finance. I've been playing lacrosse since I was 8 and have played all throughout high school up to the college level. I've played midfield my whole life but also have a couple years of face-off experience. Aside from building a career in finance, I'm also ambitious about coaching the future generations of lacrosse and taking any level of player to the next level, whether it's their first year playing or they've been playing their whole life, through drills and advice I've gained through being coached and things I've picked up myself throughout the years.

How I can help you improve your game:
Playing lacrosse for so long, I've probably gone through hundreds of shooting, dodging, passing, and overall IQ drills and through this I have multiple of each that can, for one, prevent and take away bad habits and develop a player's shooting mechanics to increase their accuracy and speed over time while also incorporating dodging drills to make a player unstoppable no matter their size.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical training session with me starts off with a quick 5-minute full-body dynamic warmup to get the legs and upper body warm to prevent any injury, and then we can divide the time up between shooting, dodging, and some game IQ and scenario work so the player can use what they learned and translate that into in-game scenarios, which is great because most of the time people, especially kids, are much more comfortable asking questions when it's more of a 1-on-1 environment. Finally, with the last couple minutes, we would talk about what they learned and what they want to focus more on in future sessions if they want more.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Currently a starting midfielder at MSU Denver.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I've ever had was in 8th grade when I started playing for the Coyotes because he played at Cornell and was very good at making sure we understood things.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Not only am I here to make players better by running them through drills, etc., but I also want to build real relationships with the players so I don't just seem like some random stranger that is coaching them but a coach that they can ask questions to and look forward to training sessions with because at the end of the day, it's about having fun.

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 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.
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!
