THROWS COACH FLORIDA
Personal Background
The throwscoachflorida.com website is a medium for a number of purposes, firstly it advertises the services as a coach that I offer potential clients, secondly it is intended to act as the central point of communication to all the athletes who throw in Florida and thirdly,
an information point about future events that are going to
happen, and a results service for those that have passed. As I develop the website it can also have technical articles accessible, videos of Florida throwers, links
to other throws sites in the USA and in other countries around the world all download/upload able.

Up until very recently I was employed as the Track and Field
Coordinator at the National Training Center in Clermont Florida.
Previous to that, I was employed for 25 years delivering and
supporting throws and jumps coaching, track facility
management and track and field (British Athletics/Scottish
Athletics) and governing body administration.
This is a brief summary of my involvement in Track and Field athletics:
• |
Former British Director of Throws |
• |
Great Britain Under 23 National Team Head Coach |
• |
Scottish Team National Coach |
• |
Manager of the Scottish National Track & Field Academy |
• |
British Junior Record Holder in the Shot Put - 2 times
Junior British National Champion |
• |
Former Junior Decathlete |
• |
Senior United Kingdom Shot Put Champion |
• |
Record Holder, Indoor Shot Put/Outdoor Shot and Discus throw at Murray State University USA |
• |
Throws and Jumps Coach – Murray State University & Southern Illinois University |
The above has taken me to Commonwealth/European/World Championships and
Olympic Games as an athlete , a coach, or enthusiastic supporter of track and
field, but more importantly has given me the opportunity to work with
national and international standard throwers and their coaches, this is the experience I will bring to coaching athletes in Florida, and making throwscoachflorida.com a medium that is dedicated to the art, science and passion of throwing.
