Player and Coach Philosophy
I'm always looking to progress as a coach, one of the best parts for me personally involving coaching, is you can always learn new ways to excel at it, whether it be from another coach or coaching devices.
For the teams I coach (and have coached) my main mission for the players is to have fun and enjoy playing the sport whilst learning not only the skills I coach, but to also take away life lessons (like leadership and teamwork). Winning is a byproduct that comes with the development of the players and the team.
If players would like to take the step to the next level I will go above and beyond to help them, with individual training and "chalk talks". As long as they reach out and prove to me they are motivated enough to want it.
Fun Fact
I have coached in and visited 29 of 50 states!
