"COACH GREGORY'S FAST FEET QUICK RELEASE HAS OTHER TEAMS BAFFLED"

Coach Gregory has worked with my son Steven individually, in small groups and at camps over the past three years. Each time Steven works with Coach Gregory, coach takes the time to develop the skill sets necessary to take Steven to the level as a quarterback and as a team leader. Coach Gregory’s fast feet, quick release methods have teams baffled as to “how the QB gets the ball off so quickly and accurately”. Even at an 8th grade level Coach Gregory has Steven reading defenses, looking off defenders and finding open receivers. Coach Gregory’s positive reinforcement, challenging drills and coaching tips continue to improve Steven’s techniques and keep his interest while working hard to develop his skills. Quarterbacks at any level, in any type of offensive scheme, will benefit from Coach Gregory’s vast knowledge of quarterbacking and offenses and how to incorporate the skills his students learn into real game successes.

As they say the proof is in the pudding. Steven Led his 8th Grade Naperville Patriots to a league Championship, and topped off a perfect 14-0 Dream Season Winning the National Championships in Orlando Florida. Steven threw 2 touchdowns in a thrilling 22-19 championship victory and he threw for 18 touchdown vs. 4 Interceptions on the year. Steven has accomplished great things and create great memories which could not have come to fruition without the help of Coach Gregory.

"COACH GREGORY IS A TOP LEVEL QUARTERBACK COACH"

Coach Gregory is a top level quarterback coach that will advance your athletes skills quickly. Steve's knowledge of the passing game and his enthusiastic training methods, have built a bond of respect with us. His excitement and passion for our son is truly appreciated. Steve will open doors for Austin that we wouldn't be able to reach on our own. Our son respects and admires him greatly. Thank you Steve!

"WE APPRECIATE HIS INTENSE FOCUS AND PRACTICE WITH PURPOSE SYSTEM"

We travel nearly 3 hours for workout sessions with coach Gregory because he is genuinely and sincerely interested in the development of Johnny and all of his QB students. He does not just " go through the motions" to fill time at his clinics and training sessions like some of the other private coaches.  We really appreciate his intense focus and "practice with purpose" system and Johnny has been able to convert coach Gregory's training into success on the field. We look forward to a long relationship with the Quarterback Farm.

Dan Sullivan, Parent, Clinton Iowa

 

Thanks to Coach Gregory, I had a great season this year. The games were more fun this year because I felt good about my passing and footwork.  Thanks Coach

"COACH GREGORY PROVIDES TRAINING LIKE NO OTHER . . "

Layne Moore - O/D All American - 2009My Son’s experience at the QB Farm, with Coach Gregory, has been top notch.   We like many other families are incredibly busy, and to make the effort to drive 3 hours from Lafayette, Indiana for training is a serious commitment by not only my Son, Layne Moore, but our entire Family.  Coach Gregory provides training like no other, and his footwork drills have transitioned Layne from a good local QB to becoming selected as a 13 year-old All American.    Immediately, upon our arrival Coach Gregory does not waste time; whereas, he spends every session fully pushing Layne to advance his skills and removing all wasted motion.  Coach Gregory not only understands the technical aspects of the quarterback position, he truly understands the pressures placed on our youth and takes time to guide and mentor Layne.   Layne’s success has been significantly influence by the skills he has acquired while at the QB Farm!!!  Many thanks to Coach Gregory!

"HE ENCOURAGES AND PUSHES ME TO BE SUCCESSFUL"

We began working with Quarterback Farm and coach Gregory 3 years ago with the primary goal of preparing Alex to play quarterback in high school.  We continue to work with coach Gregory because he gives Alex the ability to compete at a high level.  His attention to detail and focus on eliminating wasted motion and improving passing accuracy provides a strong foundation.  By pairing similar skill levels in small groups, coach Gregory also creates good competition among his students during sessions.  Competing with varsity quarterbacks every week has been a great benefit to Alex.  During our time together, we have also come to appreciate coach Gregory’s enthusiasm for his students success, both on and off the field.  Alex appreciates and responds to Steve’s positive coaching.  Through his own hard work and with coach Gregory’s dedication, Alex was named starting quarterback on his freshman team.  With stepped up efforts this off season, Alex is very excited about achieving his goals for next season.  “Coach Gregory has helped me with both the physical and mental side of playing quarterback.  He encourages me and pushes me to be successful.”

“HE TEACHES MORE THAN JUST PROPER MECHANICS OF THROWING “

" Our experience with Coach Gregory has been very positive.  He teaches more than just the proper mechanics of throwing - he stresses the leadership role and mental discipline needed to be a great quarterback.  Coach Gregory's drills address all aspects of the quarterback position, from footwork to accuracy to mental preparation. His positive attitude and knowledge of the game keeps Chris committed to developing his quarterback skills."

"STEVE HAS BEEN INVALUABLE TO KEVIN'S DEVELOPMENT AT QUARTERBACK"

My son has been training with Coach Gregory for three years now and the improvement in that time has been tremendous.  His sessions are wide ranging, covering throwing mechanics and footwork, as well as the mental aspects of the quarterback position.  Steve has been invaluable to Kevin’s development at quarterback.  His teachings have given him a clear competitive advantage on the field and we look forward to his continued success.

"ONE ON ONE TRAINING WAS INTENSE AND EXTREMELY FOCUSED"

My son, Sammy, picked up a football when he was a toddler and hasn’t put it down since.  He padded up three years ago, in 3rd grade, and has attended multiple football camps.  He always enjoys himself at the camps, but it is rare that he comes away with something concrete to help him improve his quarterbacking skills.  Last spring, Sam and I flew up to Chicago and spend two days training with Coach Steve Gregory.  The one-on-one training was intense and extremely focused.  Coach Gregory instructed Sam in the fundamentals (i.e. stances, snaps, handoffs, fakes, pitches, drops, rollouts, setups, and throwing motions).  Unlike the other camps, Coach Gregory provided numerous takeaways, including drills.  Sam worked the drills throughout the summer months and he and his team, the Andover Cyclones, reaped the rewards.  During his 5th grade season, Sammy completed 51 of 79 attempts for 764 yards, 15 touchdowns and 4 interceptions.  He also ran for seven scores.  The Cyclones averaged 27 points per game, finished with a 12-0 record, and were crowned champions of their bowl game.  Thanks Coach, we’ll see you in a few months.

"After working with our son over the past 4 years, we have witnessed a transformation from a 8th grader to a   very confident 9th grader who was pulled up to start for the 10th grade team.  After a very successful 10th grade year, our son started and lead his team to the Illinois 7A State Championship game. (13-1 State Champion Runner Up).    He lead his team during his Sr year to a 9-2 Conference  Championship year losing to the State Champions in the 2nd round of the playoffs.  Becoming the most winningest Quarterback in Geneva history, Brandon finished his High School career signing a full scholarship to Grand Valley State University."

"HE UNDERSTANDS THE ENTIRE TECHNICAL ASPECTS OF THE QUARTERBACK POSITION"

Unfortunately in today’s world, if kids want to be successful in athletics, we must prepare them younger and faster, they must work harder, and or most importantly, we must surround them with the most knowledgeable coaches who can teach and guide them properly.   I must admit, I was skeptical, but Coach Gregory satisfied all my apprehensions. His enthusiastic emphasis to a detailed approach while teaching the proper techniques convinced me that he is genuinely interested with his profession and working with my son Trent.  Most importantly, he understands the entire technical aspects of the quarterback position.  The desire, passion, and commitment he displays while teaching my son are truly the key ingredients for success with any endeavor pursued in life.  These life learned lessons he practices with you on the football field are lessons his students can utilize with all aspects of life on and off the football field.  Trent has been with Coach Gregory now for 2 years and at the age of 10 is starting to take notice of his own personal development. Trent seeing his own personal results builds confidence and creates a desire to work even harder.  Furthermore at the age of 10, Trent is still very influential, so it’s really not about what he was taught that he will remember and process, it’s about how he was taught!  Coach Gregory’s professional process to development and teaching has Trent committed to learning and studying the skill of the quarterback position.  It’s so reassuring to see that Coach Gregory’s methods incorporate desire, passion, knowledge, and commitment to teach in a non yelling environment.

"COACH GREGORY HAS BEEN TREMENDOUS"

My son with the coaching of Coach Gregory has been tremendous. The Quarterback Farm has helped my son a lot. He has learned so many new things and knows Coach Gregory will have more for him to strive for. The training is something Bryan has never experienced before and is taking every bit of it because it has helped so much.

"STEVE IS A TIRELESS TEACHER WHO STRESSES FUNDAMENTALS...."

“Steve is a high quality individual, football and quarterback coach.  He is a great instructor with a rare

ability to effectively communicate with a wide age range of prospective quarterbacks, from youth to

high school as well as college players.  Steve is a tireless teacher who stresses fundamentals to build

the necessary technical foundation so that quarterbacks develop the correct techniques required to excel.

"THE RESULTS YOU SEE WILL AMAZE YOU"

I highly recommend Steve Gregory as a personal trainer for quarterbacks.  During my years of working with

Steve I have seen his work ethic, patience, and dedication when training his students.  The results you see will amaze you, regardless the age of the quarterback.

"I WOULD RECOMMEND COACH GREGORY'S CAMP TO ANYONE LOOKING TO IMPROVE . . "

in all his high school coaching so far.  I would recommend Coach Gregory's

"COACH GREGORY HAS HELPED MY SON TREMENDOUSLY"

Joey has been with Coach Gregory for 2 years and in those 2 years he has taught Joey how to be the best quarterback he can be!  With Coach Gregory's professionalism and knowledge of the quarterback position, Joey has developed more confidence and leadership skills than ever before.  Joey's quarterback mechanics are improving with every lesson.  Coach Gregory is a professional and the best around!!

"OVERWHELMINGLY POSITIVE EXPEIENCE WE HAD WORKING WITH COACH GREGORY"

Michael & Joseph Ceschini "My son Joseph and I would like to personally thank you for the overwhelmingly positive experience we had working with you this week. You were able to keep my son who is seven years old interested the whole time we trained.  More importantly on the plane ride home I asked Joseph what were the biggest things he learned from Coach Steve and without thinking he rattled off some of the sayings you use to help your students remember certain footwork and throwing mechanics. I knew then that we made the right decision by choosing to work with you.  You also gave us drills and guidance on what he needs to do so that he can continually improve at the QB position."  Thank you again!

"I THINK STEVE WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE SOLID QB'S IN BOTH HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE"

Tim Lester - Elmhurst College Head Fooball Coach

“In my dealings with Steve, he has been nothing but professional.  I think he does a great job supporting and promoting his QB’s.  My philosophy about the importance timing and precision in a QB are exactly the same as Steve’s.  It is great to see a teacher/coach helping young men with the key ingredients to being successful at the high school and college level.  I know when recruiting Steve’s players, I am going to get a guy who has been coached in a way that will actually make his transition to college football easier.  For this reason,  I think Steve will continue to produce solid quarterbacks for both the high school and college levels. “

I RECOMMEND COACH GREGORY TO ANYONE ASPIRING GREATNESS

Scott Kellar - NFL Defensive Lineman - Indianapolis Colts

“I have coached at the Division I collegiate level, Junior college level, and high school levels for the past 20 years.  Coach Gregory is one of the finest coaches I have ever had the privilege of being associated with.  Coach Gregory takes great pride in teaching his student-athletes sound fundamental technique and guides them through a progression of teaching that allows each student-athlete to excel at a rapid pace.  Coach Gregory is not only a tremendous coach but also a wonderful person.  Coach Gregory’s character is above reproach and I highly recommend Coach Gregory to anyone aspiring greatness.”

"OUR ONLY  REGRET IS THAT WE DIDN'T FIND COACH GREGORY SOONER"

Robbie and I are back in New York and we just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with your Personal Quarterback Training sessions. Robbie has attended several other quarterback training camps but your training goes way beyond where those camps left off.  I was really impressed with your insight towards the mechanics of the quarterback position.  I told my son for the last five years that there was something wrong with his throwing mechanics but I could not identify it.  You identified it within the first five minutes. We highly recommend your training to any football player thinking about the quarterback position.   Learning the proper technique to throw the football is like learning a golf swing, it's always better to the  learn the right way first so you don't develop bad habits.   Our only regret is that we did not find you sooner.

As a former College quarterback, 7 year NFL player and current President of the NFLPA Retired Players Chicago Chapter, I am asked to get involved with endless football camps. I have had the opportunity to work with Steve Gregory for the past three years as a coach and point person to get former NFL guys involved with his camps. Steve's knowledge, attention to detail, his sincere concern for each kid and overall character is why the "Retired Professional Football Players of Chicago" (RPFPC) supports Steve Gregory.

"FORTUNATE TO HAVE COACH GREGORY - REMARKABLE PROGRESS"

        Our son began working with coach Gregory two years ago and has made and continues to make

           remarkable progress. Steve's results-producing techniques and positive, encouraging coaching

           style have encouraged our son to work even harder and learn more and, as a result, he has made

           great strides in developing his footwork and throwing mechanics and built a foundation for future

           success.  Parents of young quarterbacks in our area are fortunate to have a professional

        resource like Steve to provide knowledgeable and effective coaching and I would encourage any

           parent who is serious about developing his son's quarterback skills to explore what Coach Gregory

           has to offer." - Joel Albizo -  Parent, -Ashburn, VA

 

"THE BENEFITS WERE IMMEDIATE AS HE CAME AWAY FROM THE CENTER FASTER AND DEEPER"

Jordan Lelito - QB for the West Chicago Wildcats

My son Jordan has been playing the quarterback position for a number of years and has attended various summer camps.  Jordan participated in Coach Gregory’s 8 week QB course and he immediately changed his footwork and 3&5 step drops in accordance with Steve’s teachings.  The benefits were immediate as Jordan came away from center faster and got deeper on his drops, which ultimately bought him more time in the pocket.  Jordan also used a number of the drills taught at the camp to increase his arm strength and improve his accuracy.  Last season Jordan completed 47 passes out of 114 attempts for 12 TD’s and just under 900 yards helping his West Chicago Wildcat team reach the Super Bowl in the Bill George 115# Gold class.  Jordan relates well to Coach Steve’s hands-on instruction, has embraced his QB philosophy and likes the various drills Steve uses.  This off-season we plan to have Coach Steve continue to work with Jordan to further his development as we prepare for our 8th grade season as well as high school.

"INSTANTLY KNEW  WE HAD A LEADER AND A CHANCE TO WIN EVERY GAME"

      Coach Gregory, my son Ricky Luna and I would like to thank you for the help you gave him this

      winter during your camp. If he took anything away from the camp, it was confidence.  His 3 step and

      5 step drops are impressive. He doesn't just play QB, but he looks like one during the game through his

      mechanics. That may sound funny. But simply stated, when the other coaches, and teammates had

      their first glimpse of his ability and form it created a state of confidence on our team.  They instantly

      knew we had a leader and a chance in every game this year. It was great for morale before the season

      even started.  All of this because he looked good in drills and his mechanics were sound. There is

      something to be said when you have players in any position who look, act and play like football players.

      It builds confidence around them and heightens other players confidence and play.  We were able to

      spend less time working on mechanics and more time on plays. Thanks again.

    football I think Coach Steve Gregory’s training methods builds complete quarterbacks better

    than anybody I’ve been around.”

STEVE TAILORS HIS TRAINING TO THE LEVEL OF THE ATHLETE

"My son has been working with Steve for almost 3 years. In that time my son has shown

extensive growth as a Quarterback and a young man. Steve not only knows the specifics

of training a Quarterback, he also understands the need to build confidence in a young athlete.

In addition Steve tailors his training at the level the athlete is ready for and works hard relating to

the student. I have and will continue to recommend Steve as a Quarterback coach for those

athletes that want to become the best possible Quarterback they can be."
