Jack Heald

My earliest sporting memory goes back to 1991 watching the RWC Final with my father: the following day I joined my home club of Fleetwood RFC where I fell in love with the game and this is where I played in their first team until the age of  19. Along the road I have been fortunate to experience being coached by some great people and play alongside fun team mates.

Having forged my way into coaching in 2008, I realised  how critical the role of a coach can be to a player’s development as a sportsman and decided to make this a passion of mine!

Since focusing my career on coaching I’ve worked tirelessly on my own personal development. Numerous experiences working with professional clubs has enhanced my technical coaching skills within the game which now I often feel is missed within common practice. Coaching has given me a lot – I really enjoy giving back to players across a variety of sports and being part of their development..

Sport is very powerful for people from all backgrounds & coaching, good coaching, allow players to experience the fun, friendship and social benefits that we all want players to experience.

The coaches that work with J.Heald Coaching all work representing my company with dedicated professionalism.
