At 1st I was like what is he and the other assistants doing and started questioning myself and ability. Then it all made sense and clicked. He will find your lane. I needed to get out of my head and out of these old ways with old style of moving. Once I knew the game of the lane. It's now what I truly know to link up. I can play with confidence cuz i know my true role. Changed everything about my position and now going to play college in VA.

Coach sparked this new passion for the game. Feel like we in the best shape of our lives to perform. Interesting guy and uses his experiences and is patiently direct. He really wants the team to succeed. Morning practices really stink though, but some guys enjoyed that>?. Changed me to work hard and leave it all out on the field. Fun to be around, but can get intense in training.

Regularly changed our team's structure until we got it right. Took time, but worth the attempts I would say. Fanatical about consistently playing short to open plays... Taught my back line to numerical overload by having more passing options than the total number of our opponent's team. Few fellas a bit frustrated because they didn't possess the touch needed for the style to be effective. Would say under the average college style players had a rubbish time adapting at first, the real game out of their reach, but they needed to play the game as be.. As a Keeper, he's obsessed with I being capable of hitting long, accurate passes because of the options it opened up for us. Repetition was all day. This grew into me in Europe that way, easy for I to adapt. Would say his strategies were built on our players’ qualities, that is perhaps Kershaw greatest strength. Big on healthy nosh and daily warm ups and downs. Good lad, excited for the guy.

Very weird guy. Like to work on team bonding a lot. He’s a great guy on and off the field, but can get intense during practice. He once had me speak to a relative of his, who spoke almost no English. Most awkward moment of my life.

He was a good guy but bad coach. Felt as if he gave up on us at the end of the season because he kept canceling practices and never responded to emails or texts. We had to find out he quit from the AD instead of him telling us himself.
