Girls Soccer Success
One of my biggest thrills was coaching Carl Delmont's girls soccer team (ages 9-11) in Baltimore, MD this past week. The bio-mechanics, process/motion of the 'Set & Pull' technique has proven to be applicable to all sports.
I took the time to teach each individual girl how to 'set their leg', 'pull their knee' and 'snap through the ball'. I was blown away with the girls' ability to focus and execute the 'stroke'. It took a half hour of instruction and multiple drills, but they all picked it up by the end of our practice. Balls were flying everywhere.....And yes, I got hit in the head a few times
My main goal was to show the goalie's how to catch the ball, take their steps, 'stick the drop(ball)' outside their kicking knee as they snap through the ball.
Good stuff - GM

| Marty Godwin and Bruce Springsteen |
I recently returned from an amazing trip to Baltimore, Annapolis and Queenstown, MD. Michael Schaefer, the CEO of The River Plantation and Hunter's Oak Golf Club (http://www.theriverplantation.com/golf_eastern_shore_md/hunters_oak_golf_club.asp) was amazing as well as Hunter's Oak head PGA pro, Billy Horney.
We had the opportunity to meet with CEO of Freedmont Mortgage Carl Delmont (www.freedmont.com), tennis pro Marty Godwin, CEO at Marty Godwin Tennis (http://www.martygodwintennis.com/), PGA Tour bio-mechanics and strength coach Joey Diovisalvi (http://d1athleticonline.com/Site_2/home.html) and Orioles' legend Chris Hoiles (http://www.hggsports.com/) regarding a partnership where we will be hosting football, tennis, baseball and golf mentoring and player development camps on the 1200 acre River Plantation facility.
Big things on the Horizon. GM
