"I was 19 when I made my Premier League debut for Newcastle United. 3 years later, I almost quit football completely ... until I found out a secret that so many players don't realise until it's too late: your mindset and mentality is something you can work on every single day.
As footballers, we are always working on the technical, tactical and physical parts of the game in training or in the gym.
But how many footballers actively work on the mental side of the game?
I spent 23 years as a professional footballer, playing in top 5 divisions in English football. As a mentor at ProMindset, I love sharing what I learned on my own journey, and finding ways we can apply it to your story and support you in journey.
This online course is a quarter of a century in the making."

What’s Holding You Back From Becoming The Player You’re Meant to Be?
As a footballer, you’ve seen it. The talent is there. The passion is undeniable. But something isn’t clicking.
One week, you’re unstoppable. The next, you’re riddled with self-doubt.
Maybe you’re training like a star all week but freeze up on match day.
Maybe you’re angry after every mistake or blaming others when things go wrong.
Or maybe you just don’t believe you’re good enough.
The truth is, success in football—just like in life—isn’t just about talent or training.
It’s about mindset.
Introducing the Pro Mindset Mentoring Programme. Created by ex-professional footballer and Doncaster Rovers legend, James Coppinger, this program is designed to transform the way you think, feel and act—on AND off the pitch.
After a 23-year professional career, James knows what it takes to unlock potential. Through his unique Pro Mindset Model, he’s already helped countless young footballers break through the barriers holding them back—and he can help you too!
