About 2-3 months ago, I started looking for a football trainer for my 10 year old son. My son plays outside linebacker/ safety in tackle football. I wanted someone specific to these positions. I had never done anything like this before so I wanted to do my homework before making a decision. I spoke to several trainers from various websites and organizations. There were some were out of my price range, some that didnt have experience with the positions I wanted, some that didnt communicate well in addition to others.
When I reached out to Paul through lessons, you could tell he was eager to speak with me. He texted, emailed and called me several times before I was available. Once I did speak to him, he almost immediately addressed all my concerns. He just had a different vibe than the rest of the people I spoke to. You could tell he was driven which happened to be a quality I was looking for. We met with Paul for a consultation and he blew me and my son away. His positive attitude and work ethic are contagious. On the spot I agreed to 4 weeks of training.
The first session was great! Paul had a great way of connecting at an age appropriate level. He was able to keep my sons attention, work hard, and have fun doing it. As the sessions went on and Paul became more familiar with my son, he began introducing a plethora of different drills to strictly target my sons position(s). He explained how it related to actually playing and what the purpose of each drill was. Paul often does the drills with him which adds a little something to the experience.
Were heading to our 5th session tomorrow and my son cant wait to see what Coach Paul has designed for him. Paul has such a great attitude that my son doesnt even realize how difficult the tasks Paul has for him are. He works his butt off, is improving, and loves it.
To summarize, if youre looking for a trainer that is knowledgeable, passionate, dedicated, positive, hardworking and innovative, Paul is the guy you need. He is going to improve your child exponentially and have a positive overall impact on your child. Regarding the business aspect, Paul is a true professional. Hes upfront and honest about everything. He breaks down the financials for you. He is excellent at communicating. There is no room for misunderstanding. Just an honest hardworking guy who clearly loves football and training people.
