Ian McClurg
I was raised in Northern Ireland and come from a small nation that has historically over-performed within the international sporting arena.
Hard-work, determination, persistence, and a contagious belief that obstacles can be overcome are the key attributes that has allowed Northern Ireland to out-perform its more illustrious competitors.
They are the same attributes that allowed me to overcome the disappointment of injury as a young player and go on to establish myself as an internationally recognized performance coach, author and talent identification expert.
My success as a coach, and the success of the players that I have worked with has been built upon four pillars of success: skill + creativity + vision + passion!
These four pillars of success have helped develop athletes at the international level and now forms part of a unique coaching support program that I can now offer in training and preparing young North American players for opportunities in Europe.
