“Mark is a highly qualified professional with a passion for sport (particularly football) and the way it can be used to educate and engage people of all ages, but particularly young people. He receives very strong endorsements from many schools and parents and children get enormous enjoyment from taking part, demonstrating this through repeat attendance.  Although Mark's coaching techniques improve sports skills, they deliver much more, including developing teamwork, commitment, and broader life skills. His business network is successful and growing fast." Debbie, Parent 

“Mark has contributed greatly to the identification, recruitment and development of a number of our talented Academy players.  Mark is a loyal and enthusiastic member of our organisation that I recommend unreservedly.”  Mike Glennie, Manchester United Academy  

“Mark from Pro Skills coached my son for a full season at the age of 12. He put faith in him and his coaching methods really brought the best out in him. My son learned a lot and developed under his new coaching methods.”  John Hendrie, former Middlesbrough, Newcastle and Leeds Utd player  

“You keep moving the boundaries of what young people can achieve - my son came back from your session and started practising something I never thought possible for a 10 year old - after 2 hours in the back garden he was doing backward scissors movements - or so he called it! Unbelievable – it’s down to the environment you create where you allow kids to try things without telling them it’s wrong to lose the ball! I wish other coaches had this much patience on a Sunday!" Sally, Parent
