"Mickey McNeill was the first person in my life to first recognize my potential and then guide me in the methods towards achieving it.

 

I can honestly say that I owe him the majority of my inspiration to pursue my passion. At 17 years old, McNeill offered me captainship of his team and a new opportunity to play my own way onto a college squad. By his reputation alone, we gained access to top tier university showcases.

 

Coach McNeill’s knowledge of the game stretches far beyond technical exercises: his ability to motivate his team is nothing short of inspiring. He knows how to address different types of players with varying levels of confidence; and for that reason in combination with the opportunities he accesses he is able to pull the best out of his squads.

 

Thank you."
