Nick Barnett-Moore

Founder & Head Coach

My background and pathway into coaching is rather unorthodox having chose to enter the industry at a later stage in life. Well-travelled and educated, I believe my life experiences outside of football will contribute as much as my player experiences to coaching. I have reflected carefully on my motivations for making this career choice, and want to ensure everyone that my main goal is to provide a coaching environment I now realise is important, and never received in my youth. e.g. development over winning.

I have been described by some parents as 'tough but fair.' I sincerely want the best for whoever I coach because I am aware of how competitive it is out there. I believe every child should be prepared to feel confident and composed playing against and amongst a wide range of their peers in any environment.

See you on the fields! Coach Nick.
