Testimonials
Top-level handball
“I don’t get along well with my coach. It’s bothering me, and I’m not playing up to my potential.”
After a weekend training session with Paul, Tessa played in a Champions League match and became her team’s top scorer. A season later, she transferred to a top-three team in Spain’s top division.
“If I want to play in the top leagues, I need to have a good understanding of my talent and personality profile.”
After regularly meeting with Paul at the elite sports academy, the handball academy, the national U20 team, and the Watersley elite sports campus, I became more aware of my thinking, learning, and playing styles. In 2022, Kay won the Champions League with SC Magdeburg. He is now a “key player” on the national team.
