JP,
Wanted to drop
you a quick note and tell you how different the training has been for
Christian. As you know he has played in goal for two clubs in
Memphis over the last 4 years but after a couple of weeks of working
with you he feels like he has been standing in for the position and is
just starting to play it. The terminology (why to say KEEPER! instead of
KEEP or MINE when calling for the ball), actually being taught the
mechanics of a dive, how to positioning the hands above and below the
waist and even what second goal is. I hate to say its all new to a
player with 4 years experience from supposedly some of the best clubs in
the area. He has committed himself to the exercises and is developing
confidence in his hand speed and agility along with losing some weight
in the process. Overall we are not impressed. We are amazed! I wanted to
make sure that this did not go without being brought to your attention.
When we first met you made a statement about great coaching being a
combination of experience, education, and bonding. I fully understand
that, now. Whether you do or not; Christian believes you believe in him
and that, along with the step by step instruction has completely
refocused his outlook on himself and his soccer. Don't change a thing!
