GREENWOOD ATHLETIC AND TENNIS CLUB HIRES JOHN IRELAND!
Now you can train the way the pro’s do!
Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club is excited to announce the recruitment of personal trainer John Ireland. Ireland is the current fitness coach for David Beckham and the LA Galaxy (Major League Soccer). He has also worked with the Colorado Rapids (MLS) and with the Colorado Mammoth (National Lacrosse League) during which time the Mammoth won a world championship. The Derby County Football Club, the world renowned English premier soccer league, has also benefited from Ireland’s expertise.
As a sports performance coach, Ireland looks after all aspects of the exercise functions performed by the athletes including: cardiovascular training drills, strength resistance, plyometrics, agility, movement mechanics, and flexibility exercises. Ireland not only works with young athletes, but also with adults who are striving for better performance.
Louisa Schaffer, one of John’s clients at Greenwood, says this about John, “I did not realize how important core strength, balance, and flexibility were for me to go out and do the things I really enjoy; until after a few sessions with him.”
Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club and John Ireland are both thrilled to announce the opening of the new Athlete Performance Academy in January. The Academy is offered to young athletes as well as adults. It offers sport specific training for a variety of sports like lacrosse, soccer, tennis, skiing, hockey, and swimming. Ireland and his coaching team offer his years of experience in professional sports to Greenwood’s members.
Vic Spatola, Director of Personal Training at Greenwood says he is “…proud to have a well established conditioning professional on our team.” To Greenwood, it is just one more thing that makes the best part of their member’s day…even better.
