“John’s willingness to conduct sessions allowed me valuable opportunities to observe and enhance my coaching skills. He also provided mental skills sessions to my teams that supported my coaching. To this day, John remains a source of support and I credit a significant part of my coaching identity to his invaluable influence.”

“I highly recommend John to anyone as a mental performance coach. John is never shy to give a straight answer and meaningful advice, that has improved my mindset. He has helped me battle mental obstacles and the advice he has passed along has helped me both as a player and person.”
Alec (player)
“John is passionate about helping players to learn, achieve and execute their mental goals. We had him present to our team of u16 boys’ soccer team about mental skills and team building. The boys loved his kind, approachable manner...and he is funny too. His experience and knowledge in competitive sport shined though. The boys were so engaged. They loved the talks on controlling emotion and setting personal goals. We would highly recommend John and give him 5 stars out of 5 !!“

"John has coached me as a player and then mentored me as a coach." He helped me develop my mental resilience, knowledge and deeper love of the game. These are skills that have helped me as a player, coach, post-secondary student and now parent.

A number of years ago 'Coach John' from Soccability approached me to offer the opportunity for all the students on campus from grades 1-12 to attend weekly 30- minute sessions to be taught soccer skills and play . The students are keen to attend and skill development is obvious to students, staff instructors, and parents. This program has added tremendous value to the academy

Soccer John brought incredible energy and passion to our school while teaching soccer skills to students from Kindergarten through Grade 6. He was able to quickly build positive relationships with students of all ages and abilities, including those with diverse learning needs. His engaging approach kept students active, motivated, and excited to learn, while also creating an inclusive environment where everyone felt successful. We are so grateful for the enthusiasm, patience, and encouragement he shared with our school community.
