Testimonials
“I played under Jen for 4 years during my time at Loughborough Foxes; she helped me to massively grow as both player and person. Each session was tactical and insightful but with added personality to fit the style of the team. She helped us apply the different formations and tactical changes to different situations whilst also improving our confidence to play the ball on the floor.
She is very knowledgeable about all aspects of football from tactical analysis to player care. She can break down an individuals game and help to provide solutions to improve your game in a way that stimulates learning and is suitable to the individual player / team.
Personally Jen has been one of the people I have looked up to throughout my career; she gave me the confidence to make the step into the professional game and have now been playing professionally abroad for 2 years. I still always confide in her for any questions / decisions I have and she is always more than willing to help.
In my opinion she is one of the best coaches in the game for her unlimited knowledge, high standards and also her coaching application which altogether can make your game excel to the next level.”

"Over two years working with Jen she was always approachable, willing to listen and offer advice. She took a real interest in getting to know me as an individual and in developing her understanding of how to get the best out of me in every aspect. She took the time to find out the best ways in which I take on information, which ultimately created a better environment for my development. Jen was positive and inspirational with her words, providing a much needed confidence boost at every opportunity.
In creating a connection, Jen cultivated a mutual level of trust, respect and understanding, in which every conversation felt like a safe space. She asked questions, showed a genuine interest and was transparent throughout. She consistently offered advice around material and opportunities to develop myself in a variety of areas both on and off the pitch.
From our sessions I learnt to manage myself and my emotions better. How to be a 'silent' leader. How to understand others better and how to maintain a balanced level of perspective when dealing with adversity. That problem solving is key to success, and keeping a level head is critical to making informed choices.
With Jen players can gain support in the refinement and expansion of both intra- and inter- personal skills, as well as professional development across a plethora of different fields. As a trusted, well-informed, well-educated mentor with the ability to enhance your critical thinking and problem solving capabilities."

"I first met Jen 5 years ago when we were coaching at the same club and she has been mentoring me ever since in both formal and informal settings. She has always been able to positively provide honest constructive feedback on coaching practice and gives perspective and detail across all match lenses.
Jen worked hard to create a trusting relationship so we could have open conversations and always encourages me to solve problems and challenges by asking questions and helping me to progress my own ideas. She has shown me the importance of detail, being able to adapt tactically understanding the game requirements but also being brave to make those decisions. We have spent time developing my personal reflection skills as well as self awareness to ensure I can take all perspectives into consideration and influence people effectively.
It is clear Jen is passionate about developing people, especially those that want to push themselves and take their coaching / team to the next level. Coaches needing support solving problems they are struggling to find the answers for and wanting honest, constructive feedback should explore the 1-2-1 mentoring."

“As a player under Jenny’s support and guidance I benefitted hugely from the open lines of communication she cultivated. Jenny always made time on and away from the pitch to review and analyse the game individually & collectively. I learnt from the experience that stats could support the areas I wished to improve aided by the context of video, where we would discuss things I did well and small changes I could make to improve specific actions, my leadership skills and communication.”

"As soon as I met Jenny I felt valued and intrigued. She had a way of making me think differently. Whilst working with Jenny I have been able to apply focus and perspective to my work. Jenny is relatable, skilled and thorough, applying research and knowledge to our conversations and tasks. Jenny has inspired me so much so that I have pursued a mentoring opportunity myself."
