Coaches

Jake has been an athlete his whole life and took that love to college on a scholarship to play football. Jake became “Coach Jake” in the Golden Isles in 2018 where he gained expertise in youth fitness and athletic development by starting the Playball program in local preschools. Personal training and Playball mixed developing into a youth sports enhancement program being run at local gyms and parks which has developed into Golden Isles Sports Enhancement.

Jake has coached teams in baseball, cross country, track, and basketball, as well as individuals across many other sports including softball, soccer, swimming, tennis, and ultramarathons.

Coach Jake believes in the adage “a rising tide lifts all boats.” Raising the bar of all athletes helps improve the whole team. But raising the bar comes from the work done outside of your season. Now, the Golden Isles benefits from the experience of the coaches at GISE and the consistency offered by having a facility designed for youth athletics.
