Turk is the best soccer coach I’ve had. His passion for the game is contagious and that makes him a very inspiring and motivational coach. He knows how to take a group of good players and make them into a team connected by common purpose, by both talent development, good chemistry building, clear game plans, and excellent motivation. Those that disliked him did not share the same drive to win and the same competitive spirit that is necessary at a high level. They did not feel motivated by him because they did not accept, but feared the challenges he laid in front of them. Any good coach knows he must challenge his players if he is going to get the best out of them. If a player sees that as a threat, then they are not dedicated to the game and the sport the way that an elite player should be. Turk has a firm and direct coaching style that leaves room for nothing but what is best for the team. He has a very high sense of belief in his players and that also leads to high expectations for his players. Again, for those with a passion to win, a coach that expects the most out of you, is exactly what you’d ask for. Players that seek challenge and are driven for success will find him to be like-minded and personally invested in their goals. Players that fear the challenge of being pushed shouldn’t play for Turk, or any other great, high level, coach that wants to win.
