I started PFT with two goalkeepers in 2002. I decided early on that I wanted to have the best, most professional dedicated goalkeeper academy in Australia. I also made sure we aligned ourselves to some of the best goalkeeper coaches and coaching’ techniques in the world and that I have also worked very hard to get the highest coaches qualifications available, to be the best I can be.

I love doing what I do and seeing the goalkeeper talent evolve in all goalkeepers I work with.

PFT is a great academy with excellent, dedicated coaches and fantastic kids (and Parents!), I look forward to coming to work every day.

I joined PFT as a GK in 2005 and it was a start of a special friendship with Roy Hunter. I trained with Roy for about a year to learn his great methods of coaching to developing my skills as a GK. As our friendship grew stronger Roy asked me if I would like to coach for PFT and get my coaching badges. I accepted and I never looked back.

Now I have started my own Zone. (Southern Region) and working very hard to build in the area. Long live PFT.

I have grown up surrounded by Football, and I am a passionate and enthusiastic ambassador of the sport. I have now made the transition from playing football to coaching.

During my playing days I was fortunate enough to experience the elite aspects of the game in Australia by being apart of the NTC, AIS, and A-League (Adelaide United). This taught me a lot and has inspired me to pass on the knowledge I have acquired to young aspiring goalkeepers. I have been with PFT since 2011 and I intend to stay around for a long time to come.

PFT has, and does, allow me to develop as a coach by providing a detailed curriculum and a set of principles that fosters a high level of coaching within the academy. Consequently, this provides a tried and proven development pathway for all PFT goalkeepers.

I first encountered PFT in 2007 when I met Roy Hunter at a clinic with Eric Steele and soon after commenced with PFT under the guidance of Peter Zois.

After a number of years attending intermittently I began as a coach at the beginning of 2014 and have enjoyed every minute of it since! Working at PFT gives me the chance to work with exceptionally motivated young goalkeepers who are committed to the continuous improvement of all aspects of their game!
