Coach Nate's Playbook: Life, Football, and Everything in Between"* Hey there, fam! 👋 I'm Coach Nate, a Georgia boy born and raised in Macon, GA. I spent over a decade coachin' football in Chico, California, but I'm thrilled to be back home in Macon, where my heart is. As a football coach and trainer with Harris Elite Training, I've had the privilege of workin' with some of the most talented young athletes in the country, from ages 5-18. It's been an incredible journey, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to give back to my community. *My Story* Grown in Macon, I played football from a young age and knew that's what I wanted to do – coach and help young athletes develop their skills. I spent over 12 years coachin' in California, but the call to come back home and make a difference in my community was too strong to ignore. *My Coaching Philosophy* At Harris Elite Training, we focus on developin' the whole athlete – physically, mentally, and emotionally. I believe that football is a vehicle for life lessons, character development, and personal growth. My goal is to help my players become the best versions of themselves, on and off the field. Stay tuned for more updates, and let's make every day count! 🏈

"But what I appreciate most about Coach Nate is his heart. He's got a genuine passion for helpin' young people succeed, and it's infectious.

"To whom this may concern I have been playing soccer since I was seven years old. I started with Saint Oliver's soccer and Creekside's recreational program. I've had many coaches during my development, including my own father, who coached me until 16 years of age. I have very little club experience, but i did play varsity soccer all throughout high school. Manny Silvano was my high-school coach and he selected me to play RPL I believe and I only ever played 9 official showcase games. After high school, I decided to start coaching while continuing to play in adult soccer leagues. This is where I met coach Fred. I knew him as a referee at creekside, and the reason he held his position was because of his knowledge and experience of the game. In addition, he coached an adult team in the Wednesday night league at Creekside. That's where I truly began to understand Fred's teachings. Somehow, someway, he started to give me advice on how to improve my coaching. Fred is very sharp, attentive, and detailed. One of the very first things that stood out to me was a lesson he taught me. This was to respect the game. I was coaching a team and during half time, I instructed my team to go directly to goal. Since the goal keeper, in my words "was trash". My competitive nature overpowered my ability to instill the correct message into my youth team. After hearing this, Fred pulled me to the side and told me to never say something like that again. He defended an opposing player because they were all there to learn. Ever since then, I began to seek his guidance. Fred watched me play, and I would ask him how I played. To this day he's my mentor. When we used to work together, we would sit together for hours and watch other teams play, and we would exchange ideas and thoughts about the teams in our division. He was watching me grow every day as a player, a coach, and a human being. Every time I encountered Fred, Id always ask him a dozen questions, and he'd sit with me and teach me so many things about soccer. I would go into work early, and stay until close, just so I could learn from Fred. He's seen me grow from a recreational coach, to club coach, to now, an independent soccer trainer and businessman. His teachings are profound, he see's and knows everything, I've never seen anything like it. He is able to simplify things to such a degree and it shows how knowledgeable he really is. He is the grandfather of coaches within my residential area. Everyone knows fred, and he's coached everyone! Currently I am a starter for his team, and I became his understudy. My curiosity and interests peaks when Im around coach Fred and although my questions never end, his knowledge is beyond that. He has a special and unique way of coaching, sometimes I wonder how far i could have gone if I had met Fred earlier, but to this day, I try and learn from as much as I can from Fred. Coach Fred has made a positive impact in my life, and many others. Mostly everything I know about the game now is all thanks to him!
