Testimonials
"Since joining James and Lenny’s ProMindset sessions, we've seen a massive difference in our son's self-awareness and decision making on the pitch. The coaching is incredibly professional, but what really stands out is how personal and supportive they are with each player. James brings an amazing level of experience from his playing career, and Lenny has a fantastic way of connecting with the kids and getting the best from them.
"The sessions are high energy, challenging, and fun – exactly what you want as a parent. Our son now talks about football in a completely different way – he understands the game better, makes smarter decisions, and most importantly, he’s loving every minute of it."
Parent of U9 Player
"Our son has loved the ProMindset coaching sessions with James and Lenny. The biggest difference has been in his confidence and understanding of the game.
"James brings such a wealth of experience, and it's clear he genuinely wants to pass that knowledge on. Lenny has a fantastic way with younger players and the level of technical detail in the sessions is brilliant. The standout is definitely the small group nature of the sessions.
