Jack Hartley - Cognitive Player Education

  • University Head Coach
  • Dakota Fusion WPSL, Head Coach
"I wanted to be a part of SoccerIQ because I firmly believe that the cognitive aspects of the game can be the difference between good and great, yet it appears to be a neglected area in player development. Whether the topic is decision making on the field, confidence building off it, or how to deal with the pressures that the game brings, I hope we can provide a platform to help enhance the education & skills of young soccer players."

It is great to be apart of an initiative like SoccerIQ. I believe teaching the cognitive aspect of the game is highly important in developing quality players, specifically at youth level. I'm excited to jump on board and help expand ways in which we can influence players and coaches to be Ahead of the Game!"

"SoccerIQ's model of helping the player control their own game through their cognitive aspects and fundamental understanding is something I'm excited about. The cognitive side of Football is something I feel can be taught much more diligently to players all over the United States. The ideas that we will share via interactive avenues are a great way to hopefully help kids develop, while becoming an all-round player learning to control the variables in their game."

Together, we develop the game.
