Bounce Athletics is excited to partner with David Copeland-Smith and Beast Mode Soccer. David, pictured above with members of the U.S. Women’s National Team who he trains in the off-season, is a UEFA “A” badge holder and owner of Beast Mode Soccer. His unique progressive approach to technical training has quickly elevated Beast Mode to one of the most popular and respected player development methods in the world. His client list includes youth, high school, and collegiate players, as well as U.S. National Team stars Alex Morgan, Landon Donovan, Abby Wambach, Omar Gonzales, and Kelly O’Hara. By constantly challenging his players in a mistake-tolerant environment, Copeland-Smith inspires them to reach higher by giving them the tools and resources, such as The Better Soccer Blueprint, to push themselves further. “I love challenging players and making players think. I can’t stand telling players what to do. If we can develop problem solvers, then we’re half way there. There’s no secret. There’s no magic. It is just hard work.”
He recently presented the most talked about session at the 2014 NSCAA Convention in Philadelphia titled “Creating the Self-Reliant Soccer Player”. We share David’s philosophy of player development and are excited to become the exclusive skills ball supplier to Beast Mode. At Bounce Athletics we strive to support clubs in their effort to accelerate player development by providing custom balls at affordable prices. Copeland-Smith says, “Bounce Athletics provides the high quality skills balls that Beast Mode Soccer requires for all of our sessions. Ordering is easy, and they worked tirelessly until we were happy with the design.”
