Who, What, Where, and Why:Best Foote Forward Lacrosse

Why Best Foote Forward?

When I began coaching college I was surprised to see the number of families showing up to campus visits kind of in the dark.  Happy to be there, but no real understanding of what it all meant. 

My passion and goals include helping families and players prepare for the recruiting process and help create a pathway for how to put “Your Best Foote forward”( and not waste time or money while doing it!).  

I started this platform for young players and parents because I know what it’s like to be searching for answers, searching for mentorship, searching for resources to help with your journey.  I know what it feels like to be overwhelmed and uncertain. To be lost, searching for answers, and just unsure if you are doing all you can do to prepare for the road ahead. 

I hope to connect and build and grow a relationship with you.  I hope to guide, mentor and prepare for whatever lies ahead.  

For this reason, I feel so passionate about spreading my knowledge, resources, and connections to help families thrive and feel good about their journey and outcome.

This is not a “one size fits all” process and my hope is to be the resource you need to feel confident moving ahead.

My goal is to share my experiences, as a player, a college coach, and now as a mentor for all my female athletes in hopes to create clarity, a pathway, and a journey that is enjoyable (even through the tough times). It is manageable, and it's YOURS.

What does my initial consultation include?

After inquiring about my services you will receive an email with information to prepare you for our first phone call. We will construct a detailed assessment and discuss some actionable steps for you to take.

After that, we will create a plan for what to do next. Every situation is different so a unique plan must be created. You will be on your way to putting your Best Foote Forward!

What services do you provide through BFF?

We provide Recruiting Consults & Packages, Video Analysis, and Player Development packages.

1-Video Analysis:

This product is designed for players who want help with an existing highlight video ( or have a bunch of clips you want me to look at).

1-VIDEO HELP: a player will receive a PDF including feedback on video- analysis of video, areas to improve the video.

2-PLAYER DEVELOPMENT -Player will receive an individual PDF that identifies strengths and areas of improvement, and overall thoughts.

This option is great for players of any age and ability!

BASICALLY A VIRTUAL INDIVIDUAL THAT INCLUDES PROFESSIONAL FEEDBACK AND GUIDANCE.  

2-Player Development Assessment 

Includes 1-hour phone call:

Once the video assessment is complete, players have the option to continue working with me to develop a plan that will help improve skill, confidence, and lacrosse IQ.

An individual development includes 3 one-on-one calls to learn about your goals, co-identify the player’s needs, and co-create an action plan for improvement.

Once the plan is created, we will track progress, and adjust the plan if necessary.

Ultimately, my goal is to help players build confidence, and improve self-reflection and self-improvement.

3-Recruiting Guidance Assessment Includes a 1-hour phone call:

1-Skill Evaluation -Ability, Strengths, Areas to improve, Stickwork, Speed & Footwork, Lacrosse IQ, Attitude/Effort

2-Academic Evaluation-transcripts, classes, career path, SAT, PSAT, ACT prep

Than help educate and come up with a plan

Can I do both Recruiting & Player Development?

Yes, contact to help set up.

 “Success is what happens when preparation meets opportunity”- Seneca

The process should be looked at as a journey.   There is no “one size fits all” product that can perfectly match you to the school of your dreams, however, I hope to help provide tips, tactics, and education to ease the pain.   Journeys are marathons, not sprints. 

The more educated and prepared we are, the less stressful the process can be.  You can begin to see it as a privilege, and honor instead of a scary beast!
