A passion that has been evoving since I started coaching in 2010 leading up to the creation of Soper Performance Coaching in 2016 and the continued success of the athletes we have been privledged to work with during these years.

My philosophy in coaching is based around you as the athlete and individual in achieveing your desired success. In order to help you develop as an athlete, I firmly believe a strong understanding and partnership is key. The opportunity to work with a dedicated athlete in developing their objectives, training and performances and be rewarded in seeing them achieve their success is the ultimate goal for me.

As part of being able to help you develop as an athlete, I strongly believe in continued development of myself as a coach in order to ensure I can provide the best support. Therefore, I continually work to improve and develop my own skillsets to offer detailed support and advice in areas such as sports psychology, anti-doping and nutrition.

Off the bike (or out of the running trainers), I am a proud husband and father to two boys who enjoys the outdoors of North East Scotland and travelling to new and exciting places.
