What people are saying about Phil & Charting your Course:

Working with Phil has changed the way that I approach coaching especially when it comes to the time that I am spending on particular tasks. Overall my practice design has become more effective, consistent, and streamlined.

Margaret McConnell, Head Coach, SUNY Geneseo Field Hockey

My goal with Path was to spend time at the 10,000 foot level looking down at my program and developing a top-down plan. Phil did an excellent job at guiding me through the process of creating a nested plan to fit the needs of my program.

Donna Stephenson, Head Coach, Pine Richland HS Field Hockey

This workshop provided the exact boost I needed heading into a new season! Thank you!
