HEAR FROM OUR PLAYERS
Discover the impact of InnerZone's training from the firsthand experiences of our talented players.
I am deeply grateful for the high quality mentorship George has provided to my son, Thomas. His thoughtful and insightful approach has played a pivotal role in Thomas’s development, both on and off the football pitch.
Through breaking down complex actions into manageable, achievable steps, George has helped Thomas grow significantly in confidence. He has a remarkable ability to quickly identify psychological barriers and guide Thomas in overcoming them, ensuring he is mentally prepared as he progresses through the levels.
As Thomas approaches his England U17 trials, the guidance and support he has received have been invaluable. George has truly gone above and beyond in nurturing his potential and inspiring him to reach new heights.

My son, Kiran, started developing his game under George’s mentorship at the age of 6 while our family was based in Malawi. We are now based in Norway where Kiran has joined a high-performing team in the competitive Oslo region. Managing the transition from child to youth football can be challenging, but George has helped Kiran identify key strategies for finding his role in the team and focus on actions that are beneficial for both the team and his own player development. As a result of the Inner Zone sessions, Kiran’s resilience and
mental toughness has increased and he has confidence to take on more responsibility and
leadership in the team. We truly value George’s genuine interest and guidance in
developing Kiran’s sporting and personal growth.

Paul has provided outstanding mentorship to my daughter, Emilia, through InnerZone. His thoughtful and individualized approach has had a profound impact on her development, both as a footballer and as a young person.
Paul has worked closely with Emilia on key areas of her game — building confidence in high-pressure moments, sharpening her decision making, and developing consistency on match days. By setting achievable goals, encouraging positive self-talk, and helping her reflect on her strengths, he has given her the tools to play with greater belief and resilience.
What sets Paul apart is his genuine investment in Emilia’s progress as both a player and a person. His mentorship has not only strengthened her performance but also inspired her to take on leadership opportunities and build habits that support long-term growth.
