Who is Coach.Dabbs?
I am a football coach based in Suffolk specialising in 1-to-1 player development, helping players improve their confidence, technical ability and performance in match situations.
I have built experience working across boys, girls, men and women’s football environments, including roles within Junior Premier League and senior women’s football.
I hold a First-Class Honours degree in Football Coaching and Administration from the University of South Wales and am currently working towards my UEFA B Licence (2026).
Alongside my coaching roles, I continually develop my own knowledge by learning from experienced coaches and applying new methods into my sessions. I believe strong coaching comes from continuous development, both for the coach and the players.
