Hi, I'm Liam.

I've been obsessed with football since I was a kid, and now I enjoy coaching it just as much as playing it.

My football story

I have played for over 20 years at various clubs in Victoria including Altona City, Melton Phoenix and Ocean Grove. I now have 8 years of coaching experience across multiple age groups (from U7 through to senior state league) and have been the club coach coordinator at Ocean Grove and now Barwon Heads Soccer Club.

I have completed the Foundation of Football certificate from FFV, with my next focus being the C-Diploma licence.

I'm highly passionate about the game. Growing up I'd get up early on Sunday mornings to watch the English Premier League and Serie A highlights on SBS, head off to play for my club, then come home in the afternoon to watch SBS again, this time the NSL with Les Murray and On The Ball.

My coaching philosophy

I'm dedicated to helping players develop technical skill, excellent decision making and a strong football IQ, in an extremely positive environment where players can learn stress free and without pressure, helping them excel as a player and a teammate.
