Tom opened Momentum Performance Training in February of 2009 and has since grown from coaching four kids to being the most sought after performance coach in the area. His performance center is housed in a building on family property but when you enter you experience the excitement and professionalism. When asked what his goals are Tom replies: “My goals remain the same for all of my athletes: to excel in their given sport or sports, to have a long career with limited injuries and to earn some kind of college scholarship. My proudest moments are when my athletes reach the goals that they have set for themselves. They can look back and see how all of their hard work and commitment of time has paid off for them. I am proud of what I have done for them but I am even more proud to see how much THEY put in and how much THEY wanted it. That is something that no one can ever take away.”
