Ulster Academy Rugby Player
Johnny has played a huge role in my journey as an athlete. From a young age, he’s been there to help me through the highs and lows of sport, giving me the tools to train and play at my best. The insights he gives me from his time as a professional athlete and from what he has learned has completely changed the way I look at things and approach my preparation, mindset, and performance, allowing me to make the most of every session and every match and squeeze every drop out of what I’m doing. I’m extremely grateful for his support, knowledge, and belief in me.
Sophie Kelly-Bradley
NI Women’s U19 Football Team
I am privileged to have been working with Johnny for some time and with confidence I can say that I have noticed a tremendous improvement in my game but also my emotional management off the pitch. Johnny has enabled me to reach levels in my game that I previously would not of believed capable, most notably being selected to play in the U19 Women’s Euro Qualifiers representing Northern Ireland, having only just turned 17. Johnny has helped me to not only become the best version of myself on the pitch but is helping me create a mindset that will continue to make my success limitless.
