About the Coach

Tailored coaching
in Lancashire

As American Football in the UK continues to grow, so are the opportunities — more athletes are looking to play at a higher level, whether that's national, European or US college football.

Children as young as six can get private coaching for most other sports, but rarely for American Football. That's where ALL IN Coaching comes in.

Ian Nicolson has been coaching for over 20 years in the UK, with a passion for helping players develop both on and off the field. One private session a month with ALL IN can equal a full month of position training at a club.

  • Free 20-minute online meet & greet with player and parent/guardian (under-18s)
  • Sessions planned with the athlete's input
  • Clear goal-setting and progression

Testimonials

In their own words

Being a female playing in a male-dominated sport, Coach Nic has helped push me to do my best, compete and improve as a player. His knowledge of the sport is second to none — teaching me the fundamentals and techniques that have been pivotal in my growth. He is always a ball of energy, and his enthusiasm for the sport shines through, ensuring I always had fun while learning.

Kiera Collier

Athlete

Through these sessions I feel stronger and more mobile, and Ian has helped me develop my game and grow my confidence on the field. He's taught me the fundamentals and given me the knowledge to navigate my first two tournaments, which were pivotal to my improvement. I highly recommend ALL IN Coaching.

Declan Sale

Athlete

My son's knowledge of American Football has grown enormously since starting with ALL IN Coaching. The sessions are constructive and motivational, and have helped his self-esteem, courage and mental focus. Each session is built around the individual, focusing on what they want to improve on. Games are analysed in depth and action plans created to suit each player's ability. His stance, form, agility, mobility, strength, technique and power have improved immensely.

Annmarie Haggerty-Sale

Parent

Ian has been coaching my daughter one-on-one. He ensures all safeguarding is in place and communicates well with students to understand their goals. He is extremely professional and has an outstanding knowledge of the game. Ian's coaching technique makes Charlotte feel at ease, giving her the confidence to be a better player and reach her goals.

Ask a question
What equipment do I need?
Boots suitable for the training surface — anything from grass to 3G/4G astroturf. Comfortable training clothing and your own drinks. Helmet and shoulder pads are personal preference; if on loan from a local club, please seek their permission first.
How much does it cost?
The price per session varies with the number of athletes attending. All costs include local travel, though sessions further than 20 miles may include a small additional travel charge.
What do sessions look like?
Each session is planned in advance and led by the athlete — incorporating the specific areas they want to develop. As with all aspects of American Football, fundamentals and footwork are key and will often form a major part of the work.
Is there a free intro session for under-18s?
Yes — a free 20-minute online meet & greet with the player and parent / guardian for under-18s, before any sessions are booked.
