About Coach Brett
Meet the Coach
I’m Brett — a dad, coach, mentor, and the founder of Elevate Youth Coaching. Sports have been a huge part of my life, but the older I get and the more I coach, the more I realize this is about much more than wins, losses, or drills.
I care about the kid first. I want to know what they are struggling with, what they are excited about, where their confidence is at, and how I can help them believe in themselves a little more each time they show up.
When a parent trusts me with their athlete, they are not just getting someone who runs workouts. They are getting someone who is going to encourage their kid, challenge them, hold them accountable, and remind them that they are capable of more than they think.
I started Elevate because I have seen too many kids lose confidence in sports. Some kids love the game, but one bad season, one bad coach, or one environment that makes them feel small can change how they see themselves.
I wanted to create something different. A place where kids can work hard, learn fundamentals, build athletic skills, and still feel supported as a person. Elevate is built around the idea that confidence, mindset, and character matter just as much as performance.
My goal is for every athlete to leave feeling like they improved, but also like someone believed in them. Because when kids feel believed in, they start showing up differently — in sports, at school, at home, and in life.
With me, your athlete gets a coach who is going to bring energy, patience, structure, and heart every single session. I am going to teach, encourage, correct, and push them — but I am never going to make them feel like they do not belong.
I believe kids need coaches who care enough to hold them accountable, but also care enough to understand who they are. Every kid is different. Some need more confidence. Some need more discipline. Some need someone to help them realize they are stronger than they think.
That is what Elevate is about. Helping young athletes grow in skill, confidence, mindset, and life.
