Coaches
At the heart of AFL is its elite instructional staff made up of former NFL coaches and NFL PLAYERS - the best technicians ever assembled – who spend 1 hour with our elite AFL athletes at each session. Almost all of our instructors currently train, on a private basis, top NFL and college athletes. They agree to train at AFL because they understand that AFL identifies football players who desire, and are prepared for the elite instruction provided.
These are the AFL instructors who provide the private evaluation of our athletes at the end of each AFL training session. Upon completion of AFL, our instructors will provide the athletes with their follow up off-season positional workout routine to nurture the progress of our young athletes.
We encourage you to read more about our instructors who will train you, your sons, and your players at AFL.
At the game’s higher levels, talent is a given. If you’ve been invited to FBU, you have it. You’ve demonstrated you’re one of the best in your region. But to play beyond high school – to be one of the best in the nation – it will take more. This truth gave rise to another: Technique plus talent beats talent alone.

About Us
AFL was developed by current and former NFL and college head, offensive/defensive coordinators and position coaches seeking to create a smarter, more technical FOOTBALL player. Coaches feel players were getting further and further behind on the knowledge of the game. Youth and High School coaches simply don’t have the time during the season to develop technical skill. Players are primarily learning the coaches offensive and defensive systems. Thus, heavenly relying on the physical aspect of their game. AFL will teach how and when to use their technical skills to gain advantage during competition.
AFL Coaching
Mission Statement
Dedicated athletes – AFL athletes – have one common goal: pursuing football at the highest level their knowledge, skill and talent will take them. With this in mind, AFL created its three-fold approach to developing athletes: 1. Make them better technical football players. 2. Make them better athletes and prepare them for success at the level they desire. 3. Give them the opportunity to expose their entire football portfolio to as many colleges as possible. The first two make the third far easier to obtain. AFL takes athletes – football players – and turns them into elite quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, linemen, linebackers and defensive backs. Registered athletes choose one position and receive position-specific technique training from coaches whose methods are NFL-tested. These 10, one-hour sessions of training consist of individual and one-on-one drills. The players implement what they’ve learned, and are ready to test their technique against other athletes. At the end of the session, athletes receive an FSAT (Football Skill and Technical) grade reflecting their speed, strength and performance in positional drills. Most AFL athletes have been the best player on the field every time they’ve stepped on it. For most, athleticism, speed and size got them there. By refining your raw abilities and honing your technique, AFL’s goal is to ensure that this remains true regardless of the competition and level of play. For those who may not be blessed with superior athleticism, AFL’s technical coaching and knowledge of the game will allow them to compete at any level.
